India’s first-of-its-kind naval shooting range inaugurated at INS Karna

A first-of-its-kind, Composite Indoor Shooting Range (CISR) was inaugurated by Vice Admiral Biswajit Dasgupta at INS Karna. The CISR is a state-of-the-art, self-contained, 25 m, six-lane, live firing range for all primary and secondary weapons in the Navy. With advanced target systems and associated control software, this range would enable personnel to hone their firing skills, enabling them to challenge and take on adversaries in demanding scenarios.

Key points:

  • INS Karna is the first in the Navy & the only military unit in the country to set up and use a facility of this kind.
  • The range has been set up to contemporary international standards by an Indian firm and is a shining example of Atma Nirbhar Bharat in the year of ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’.
  • The entire facility was set up in a record time of 120 days from the award of the contract to the firm.
