Subject(s): Summary: Covering economic, military and political considerations, Sea Power and Indian Security draws upon sensitive classified documents sent from Indian Naval Headquarters to the British Admiralty until the 1960s. It investigates indigenous warship construction from the late 1960s, as well as the acquisition of naval vessels from the erstwhile Soviet Union. The adoption of a defensive naval doctrine proved to be the solution to reluctant government funding, and helped pave the way towards expansion and a more active role for the navy in the struggle for control of the Indian Ocean, where India has become a dominant maritime power.
