Astravahini-class torpedo recovery vessel A73.

The Astravahini class of torpedo recovery vessels are a series of naval auxiliary watercraft built by Goa Shipyard Limited and P.S. & Company for the Indian Navy.[1] They are intended to recover practice torpedoes and mines, fired and laid by ships, submarines and aircraft. The vessels can stow two full-sized torpedoes on deck and two on a recovery ramp.

The vessel A72 sank on 6 November 2014 during a routine exercise near Visakhapatnam after taking on water, with one sailor dead and four missing.[2][3]
