'''''Sindhughosh''-class''' submarines are {{sclass2-|Kilo|submarine|0}} diesel-electric [[submarine]]s in active service with the [[Indian Navy]]. Their names are in [[Sanskrit]], but in their Roman-alphabet forms sometimes a final short ''-a'' is dropped.

The ''Sindhughosh'' submarines, designated 877EKM, were designed as part of ''Project 877'', and built under a contract between [[Rosvooruzhenie]] and the [[Government of India|Ministry of Defence (India)]].

The submarines have a displacement of 3,000 tonnes, a maximum diving depth of 300 meters, top speed of 18 [[knot (unit)|knot]]s, and are able to operate solo for 45 days with a crew of 53. The final unit was the first to be equipped with the [[3M-54 Klub]] (SS-N-27) antiship cruise missiles with a range of 220 km.

The Indian Navy signed a contract with the Russian shipbuilder Sevmash to refit and upgrade the existing submarines and to extend their operational life by 35 years. The first submarine, INS ''Sindhukesari'', will be sent for refit starting June 2016. The extensive refit, the value for which is pegged at Rs 5,000 crore for a total of four submarines, will not only extend the life of the boats but will also upgrade their combat potential and fitted with [[3M-54 Klub|Klub]] land attack cruise missile.<ref>{{Cite web|title = Navy signs Rs 5,000 crore pact with Russian shipbuilder Sevmash for Kilo class submarine refit - The Economic Times|url = http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/defence/navy-signs-rs-5000-crore-pact-with-russian-shipbuilder-zvezdochka-for-kilo-class-submarine-refit/articleshow/49425464.cms|website = The Economic Times|access-date = 2016-02-11|df=dmy-all}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title = Russia to modernize Sindhukesari submarine for the Indian Navy|url = http://in.rbth.com/news/2015/10/16/rusia-to-modernize-sindhukesari-submarine-for-the-indian-navy_483555|website = in.rbth.com|access-date = 2016-02-11|df=dmy-all}}</ref>

In 2015, the naval exercise Malabar, between the navies of India and the United States, involved {{INS|Sindhudhvaj|S56|2}} and {{USS|City of Corpus Christi|SSN-705|6}} hunting each other.

In December 2015, [[Larsen & Toubro|L&T]] was chosen by the Russian shipbuilder Sevmash to be its Indian partner in the refit project. While the first of the four Kilo class subs will go to the Russian Zvezdochka shipyard for inspection and refit, the remaining three are likely to be modernized at the [[Kattupalli Shipyard|Kattupalli shipyard]]. The first of the submarines to be modernized at private yard, a first for India, will go in by 2017, An order for 2-3 more submarines could also be commissioned, depending on ongoing acquisition plans of the Indian Navy.<ref>{{Cite news |title = Upgrading Kilo class submarines: L&T set to partner Russia for Rs 5,000-crore defence deal |url = https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/defence/upgrading-kilo-class-submarines-lt-set-to-partner-russia-for-rs-5000-crore-defence-deal/articleshow/50491411.cms|date=14 July 2018|newspaper = The Economic Times| first=Manu | last=Pubby | access-date = 6 July 2019|df=dmy-all}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title = L&T partners with Russia for upgrading Kilo class submarines|url = http://www.businessinsider.in/LT-partners-with-Russia-for-upgrading-Kilo-class-submarines/articleshow/50493746.cms|website = Business Insider|access-date = 2016-02-11|df=dmy-all}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title = L&T shortlisted for 'Kilo' upgrade work|url = http://www.janes.com/article/57175/l-t-shortlisted-for-kilo-upgrade-work|website = www.janes.com|access-date = 2016-02-11|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160115083846/http://www.janes.com/article/57175/l-t-shortlisted-for-kilo-upgrade-work|archive-date=15 January 2016|df=dmy-all}}</ref>
