Indigenous Development Routes Followed by IN. Indian Navy undertakes indigenous development of equipment and systems through Public and Private Sector routes. IN also interacts with industry organisations such as CII/ FICCI/ ASSOCHAM, R&D Organisations and academia for active participation in development of equipment and systems. The indigenous development process is broadly represented in Figure below.
