Defence Minister Arun Jaitley on Saturday commissioned India's first indigenously-built stealth anti-submarine warfare INS Kamorta at naval dockyard in Vishakhapatnam.

The warship has been built by the state-owned Gardenreach Shipbuilders in Kolkata and is the first vessel in the Navy whose all weapon systems are manufactured indigenously.

Speaking at the ceremony, Defence Minister said, "One of the initiative of the government of India is indegenous manufacturing of defence equipment. I am sure INS Kamorta will serve this country effectively for a very long time."

INS Kamorta, which has enhanced stealth features make it less susceptible to detection, will form part of the Vishakhapatnam-based Eastern Command.

Kamorta is the first of four ASW stealth corvettes designed by Indian Navy's in-house organisation, Directorate of Naval Design (DND), and built by GRSE, a statement from the Eastern Naval Command said.

It would carry short-range Surface-to-Air missiles (SAM) and Active Towed Array Decoy System (ATDS).

It can also carry an integral ASW helicopter
