At the Indian state-owned shipbuilding enterprise Goa Shipyard Limited (GSL) in Goa, the launching ceremony took place for the second Tavasya frigate of the Russian Project 11356 code "Burevestnik" with construction number 1259, being built there with Russian assistance for the Indian Navy.
In October 2016, the governments of India and Russia concluded an intergovernmental agreement on the construction of two Project 11356 frigates for the Indian Navy, as well as the construction of two additional subsequent Project 11356 ships in India at the Goa Shipyard Limited (GSL) enterprise.
In October 2018, Rosoboronexport signed a contract with Goa Shipyard Limited (GSL) worth about $500 million to assist in the construction of two Russian Project 11356 frigates for the Indian Navy at GSL, with the transfer of licenses and technologies by the Russian side.
The multipurpose frigate of Project 11356 has a balanced set of weapons with a relatively small displacement, allowing it to reliably cover escorted ships from attacks by air, surface, and underwater enemies.
The economical main power plant provides the ship with high speed and significant cruising range. The basis of the strike missile armament of the frigates is the universal 3S14 launching installations.
Characteristics of Project 11356:
Frigate length - 124.8 m, width - 15.2 m, draft - 4.2 m, full displacement - 4035 tons, full speed - 30 knots, cruising range - 4 thousand 850 nautical miles, endurance - up to 30 days, crew - 180 people (including 18 officers).
