"Flying Frigate" making up part of the naval aviation flypast for review by Smt. Pratibha Devi Singh Patil, President of India and Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces during President's Fleet Review 2011. Based on Sea King HAS Mk.5, these helicopters have been a force multiplier aboard Godavari-class frigates, Delhi-class destroyers and carriers. Along with ASW, 42Bs can perform ship strike with the Sea Eagle ASM. The Sea Kings are operated by INAS 330 "Harpoons" and INAS 336 "Flaming Arrows".

With its Fowler flaps set at 5 deg, this Dornier from INAS 310 "Cobras" takes to the air at around 95 kts during Aero India 2021 amidst IAF roundels. The unit was commissioned on the Alizé at Hyéres by Amb. Nawab Ali Yavar Jung on 21 March 1961 as IN's first ship-borne ASW/MR unit, flying off INS Vikrant. The "Cobras" transitioned to the Do-228 in Aug. 1991. True to their motto 'First In and Last Out', INAS 310 remains the Indian Navy's most decorated unit, having received three unit citations.

A museum with just the one aircraft, but what a machine! IN312 of INAS 312 "Albatross" is displayed on Visakhapatnam's Beach Road adjacent to Foxtrot-class submarine museum INS Kursura. Deinducted on 29 March 2017 after 29 years of yeoman service, the aircraft was flown for the last time to INS Dega 8 Apr 2017 by Cdr RS Dutt, Senior Pilot of Albatross. Dismantled, it was transported by road and reassembled as a superb walk-through exhibit, with aircraft equipment on display in the building to the rear.

A great comparison of sizes as a man in the water awaits rescue from an ALH Mk.I with its long winch cable and rescue basket in front of the Indian Navy's Deepak-class fleet replenishment tanker A57 INS Shakti during the President's Fleet Review off Visakhapatnam. One could better appreciate the challenges of maritime SAR through this demo during the review, with the man overboard being difficult to spot as a speck in the water.

On static display for the award of President's Color to Naval Aviation. Once Harrier had been selected for the carrier, IN pilots led by Cdr A. Prakash VrC went to RAF Wittering in 1982 for the basic course on the T Mk.4. By 1983, INAS 300 "White Tigers" was operational on Sea Harrier Mk.51s along with a T Mk.60. More Harriers were inducted, with training done by INAS 551 B-Flight, later INAS 552. Replacement T Mk.4(I) trainers were ex-RAF, this being ZB602. IN's Harriers were decommissioned in 2016.

Serial is assumed as not visible in the photo. The aircraft was not delivered to India until 1984. Also seen is a Hunter code 878. This may be Mk T8C WT722 though the original photo isn't suitable to confirm this.

P-8I of INAS 312 "Albatross" in the hands of LCdr Saurabh Kumar flies past Shri Ram Nath Kovind, President of India and Supreme Commander of the Indian Armed Forces at the President's Colors to Naval Aviation ceremony. The grey monsoon skies of Goa is just another day for this LRMR/ASW unit that ranges far and wide. INAS 312 formerly flew the mighty Tu-142M from INS Rajali.

There's nothing quite like music to the ears of the four Ivchenko AI-20M turboprops as this Sea Dragon from INAS 315 "Winged Stallions" comes in low over INS Hansa in the hands of Senior Pilot Cdr PK Sharma in the run-up to the President's Colors to Naval Aviation ceremony. The chin mounted Lanner-A (NV5-0101) EO pod gets a good look to starboard. The typically grey Goa monsoon weather exemplifies the conditions in which the airborne MR assets of the Indian Navy fly daily to guard the vast coastline.

Cdr Ankur Jain flies in INS Hansa's drab monsoon skies with tailhook extended in the run-up to the President's Color to Naval Aviation ceremony. The checkerboard fiducials are visible all over NP-1, which looks better than the single-seat NP-2. LCA (Navy) achieved an important milestone for India's indigenously built fighter when Cmde Jaideep Maolankar "Mao" trapped NP-2 successfully aboard R33 INS Vikramaditya on 11 Jan 2020. The program is headed towards the Twin Engine Deck Based Fighter (TEDBF).
