The Indian Navy inaugurated the state-of-the-art Static Firing Facility, Trinetra, at Naval Station Bheemunipatnam, enhancing its weapons testing capabilities. This facility, designed and developed indigenously, aims to reduce reliance on foreign original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) for life extension and operational sustainability of naval armaments. Trinetra will enable the scientific assessment of the combat-worthiness of missiles and rockets by capturing key performance parameters, thereby increasing the reliability and precision of naval weapon systems. This development marks a significant milestone in bolstering the Indian Navy’s combat readiness and aligns with the country’s Aatmanirbharta initiative, emphasizing self-reliance in defense capabilities and ensuring enhanced mission effectiveness.
