News:

• The Indian Navy has reportedly sent requests for proposals to four potential foreign contractors to assist it in constructing a state-of-the-art aircraft carrier.
• Contractors from Russia, the United States, France and Britain may take part in designing India’s new 65,000 metric ton aircraft carrier.
