Today is an emotional day for the Nation as INS Viraat, the Indian Navy`s aircraft carrier that served us for the past thirty years will retire at sunset. Navy Chief Sunil Lanba has revealed that there are plans to sink Viraat and convert it into a major attraction for divers to explore.
INS Viraat weighs 28700 tons is 226.5 meters in length and 48.78 meters in breadth. It had the capacity to travel at 52Kms per hour carrying 2100 Navy personnel. Sadly if the proposal to convert it into an underwater museum fails within four months then the she could be broken and sold as scrap.
