Indian Navy SSN programme The Government of India approved the construction of six new nuclear powered attack submarines (SSN) in February 2015. These will be designed by the Navy's in-house Directorate of Naval Design and indigenously built in the Shipbuilding Center at Visakhapatnam. Expertise gained in the construction of the Arihant class SSBNs will be transferred to the SSN project. Since India is a traditional user of Russian nuclear submarines (with INS Chakra on lease) the new domestically built submarines would be third class of SSN operated by Indian navy after leased Charlie-class submarine and Akula-class submarines. All six submarines are expected to be constructed in India under the Make in India program.

Coast guard A coast guard or coastguard is a maritime security organization of a particular country. The term implies widely different responsibilities in different countries, from being a heavily armed military force with customs and security duties to being a volunteer organization tasked with search and rescue functions and lacking any law enforcement powers. However, a typical coast guard's functions are distinct from typical functions of both the "navy" (a pure military force) and a "transportation police" (a civilian law enforcement agency).

Planned Australian offshore combatant vessel The Offshore Combatant Vessel (OCV) is a proposed multipurpose small warship class for the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Initially proposed in the and marked as procurement project SEA 1180, the 20 OCVs would replace 26 vessels across four separate ship classes: the "Armidale"-class patrol boat s, the "Huon"-class minehunter s, the "Leeuwin"-class survey vessel s, and the "Paluma"-class survey motor launch es. Although having a common design (which could be up to 2,000 tonnes in displacement), the ships would use a modular mission payload system to fulfil specific roles; primarily border patrol, mine warfare, and hydrographic survey. The 2013 Defence White Paper committed to the OCV project as a long-term goal, but opted in the short term for an accelerated procurement of an existing design to replace the "Armidale"s, and life-extension refits for the other types.
