Goa Shipyard Limited (GSL) has launched two indigenous fast patrol vessels, Adamya and Akshar, designed to enhance the protection of offshore assets, and island territories, and conduct surveillance operations for the Indian Coast Guard. GSL is constructing a total of eight fast patrol vessels (FPVs) for the Coast Guard, aligning with the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' vision of self-reliance in defence production. The vessels, measuring 52 meters in length and 8 meters in breadth, demonstrate GSL's capabilities in designing and building advanced maritime assets for India's defence forces.
