Explanation – The primary purpose of the Indian Navy’s Next Generation Missile Vessels (NGMVs) is anti-surface warfare. These vessels are designed to provide offensive capabilities against enemy warships, merchant vessels, and land targets. NGMVs are designed with advanced stealth features, including a low radar cross-section (RCS) and reduced infrared, acoustic, and magnetic signatures. These features make the vessels harder to detect by enemy surveillance systems.
