Gorshkov to figure in Indo-Russia ministers' meet

September 23, 2012 16:30

Delay in the delivery of aircraft carrier Admiral Gorshkov to Indian Navy by Russia will be discussed at a meeting of defence ministers of the two countries to be held here in the first week of October.

The delivery schedule of the already much-delayed warship slipped further after it encountered engine malfunctions during sea trials in Russia and is now expected to be delivered in the second half of next year.

During the meeting of the India Russia Intergovernmental Commission on Military-Technical Cooperation next month, the issue will come up for discussion, Navy officials said in New Delhi.
