Indian Navy Plans Low-Frequency Radar Station in Telangana to Communinate to Submarines
Defense News ,India :- In a smart plan, the Indian Navy is getting ready to build a special radar station deep in the Damagundam temple area in Parigi, Telangana. This is part of the Navy's bigger project to make itself stronger by setting up radar stations with Very Low-Frequency (VLF) technology all over India.
The Navy's VLF radar project got a boost when they opened INS Kattabomman, a VLF-transmission place, in Vijayanarayanam, Tirunelveli district, Tamil Nadu. This first station worked well, showing the Navy's commitment to using low-frequency radio waves to talk to ships and submarines.
Even though the Tamil Nadu station is working, the Navy had some problems setting up the second VLF station in Telangana. But the Navy didn't give up. Now, they've found a good spot in the forest near the Damagundam temple in Parigi for the new low-frequency radar station.
This move fits with the Navy's goal to improve communication with ships and submarines using advanced radar technology. Low-frequency radio waves are important for making sure communication is strong and can reach far distances, especially with submarines under the water.
