The Indian Navy commissioned the indigenously designed and developed Kalvari Submarine Escape Training Facility "Vinetra" in Visakhapatnam on 13 September 2024.
The Winnetra facility includes a five-meter escape tower and an adjacent diving base, which will train submarine crews to safely exit the submarine in emergency situations.
The facility has been developed under the Make in India and Atmanirbhar India campaigns, and will help train crew of the Indian Navy's Kalvari-class conventional submarines.
