At 110 m and displacing 3000 tons, she is the Indian Navy's largest corvette. The ship incorporates advanced stealth features like superstructure made of carbon fibre and has an advanced suite of weapons and sensors which help her in carrying out her role of a 'submarine hunter' effectively. She is also capable of carrying an ASW role helicopter.<br />''<br />''The ship is named after the island of 'Kiltan' – a beautiful coral island among the Lakshadweep Islands. The ship's motto is derived from the Sanskrit shloka 'Shrir Vijayo Bhutir Dhruva', which means 'Victory and Glory Always'.<br />''<br />''<span style="color: #222222;">Naval cooperation between India and Bangladesh is an important pillar of bilateral defence cooperation.
