Chennai (July 12,2023) : India is eyeing a major opportunity as the United States looks to make the country a hub for ship repairs. The two countries have recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that will allow the US Navy to use Indian shipyards for mid-voyage and emergent repairs.
The MoU is a significant development in the US-India strategic partnership. It demonstrates the US's commitment to India as a key partner in the Indo-Pacific region. It also provides India with a major opportunity to boost its defense capabilities and attract foreign investment.
The Indian shipbuilding industry is already well-established. It has the capacity to repair and refit ships of all sizes.
