About KRI Nanggala-402 Submarine

  • KRI Nanggala (402) is a diesel-electric attack submarine of the Indonesian Navy, one of two Cakra-class submarines, and uses a Type 209 design. 
  • Nanggala was ordered in 1977, launched in 1980, and commissioned in 1981. 
  • The boat has conducted intelligence gathering operations in the Indian Ocean and around East Timor and Nunukan.

  • The boat underwent a major refit in 2012.
  • Nanggala was declared missing on 21 April 2021, hours after losing contact with surface personnel while it was underwater. 
  • The boat is named after the Nanggala, a divine and powerful short spear that was owned by Prabu Baladewa (the elder brother of Krishna), a recurring character in wayang puppet theatre.

What is a DSRV (deep submergence rescue vessel)?

  • India is one of the few countries in the world that can use a DSRV to search for and rescue a damaged submarine.
  • Using its state-of-the-art side scan sonar and remotely operated vehicle, the Indian Navy’s DSRV system can locate a submarine up to 1,000 metres deep.
  • Following the good location of the submarine, another DSRV sub module, the submarine rescue vehicle (SRV), connects with the submarine to rescue the trapped personnel.
  • The SRV can also be used to supply the submarine with emergency supplies.
