"In India, our MTU engines power numerous Navy vessels and over 80 per cent of the Coast Guard fleet," says Alex Zino, future programmes chief at Rolls-Royce.

Rolls-Royce is also proposing an all-electric drive for the Indian Navy's second indigenous aircraft carrier (IAC-2), planned at Cochin Shipyard.

The power solution for the 65,000-tonne IAC-2 is based on Rolls-Royce's MT-30 marine gas turbines, which provide allelectric drive to both the Royal Navy's 65,000-tonne aircraft carriers, HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales.
