September 23, 20241 yr Recently commissioned INS Vikrant has 4xAK-630 but not 4x76mm guns, casual find looking on her photos, and confirmed here, minute 1:28: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CXLp926P20
September 23, 20241 yr You should edit Wikipedia? 4 otto 76s would be nice in lots of situations, but I guess she'll always have escorts. PS, its interesting following the links in Wikipedia, ever growing list of indigenous gear being used by the Indian Navy.
September 24, 20241 yr I believe both the 76mm OTO and the 30mm AK-630 were originally on the spec sheet when the configuration for INS Vikrant was being developed. Even the AK-630 series is getting rather long in the tooth.
