INS Vikramaditya is the Indian Navy’s largest short take-off but assisted recovery aircraft carrier and warship converted from the Russian Navy’s decommissioned Admiral Gorshkov vertical take-off and landing missile cruiser carrier. INS Vikramaditya was commissioned into service in November 2013.
The warship was extensively refurbished with new propulsion systems, hull sections, sensors, and flight deck. It was operationally deployed with a full complement of MiG-29 aircraft in May 2014.
