INS Vikramaditya (Sanskrit, Vikramāditya (भा नौ पो विक्रमादित्य) meaning "Brave as the Sun") is a modified Kiev-class aircraft carrier which entered into service with the Indian Navy in 2013. She has been renamed in honour of Vikramaditya, a legendary emperor of Ujjain, India.
Originally built as Baku and commissioned in 1987, the carrier served with the Soviet and later with the Russian Navies (as Admiral Gorshkov) before being decommissioned in 1996 as she was too expensive to operate on a post-Cold War budget. The carrier was purchased by India on 20 January 2004 after years of negotiations at a final price of $2.35 billion. The ship successfully completed her sea trials in July 2013 and aviation trials in September 2013.
She was commissioned on 16 November 2013 at a ceremony held at Severodvinsk, Russia. On 14 June 2014, Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi formally inducted INS Vikramaditya into the Indian Navy and dedicated it to the nation.
Baku entered service in 1987, and was renamed Admiral Gorshkov in 1991, but was deactivated in 1996 because she was too expensive to operate on a post-Cold War budget. This attracted the attention of India, which was looking for a way to expand its carrier aviation capabilities. On 20 January 2004, after years of negotiations, Russia and India signed a deal for the sale of the ship. The ship would be free, while India would pay US$800 million for the upgrade and refit of the ship, as well as an additional US$1 billion for the aircraft and weapons systems. The navy looked at equipping the carrier with the E-2C Hawkeye, but decided not to. In 2009, Northrop Grumman offered the advanced E-2D Hawkeye to the Indian Navy.
The Indian Navy (IN; Hindi: भारतीय नौ सेना (Devanāgarī), Bhāratīya Nau Senā (Latin)) is the naval branch of the armed forces of India. The President of India serves as the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. The Chief of Naval Staff (CNS), usually a four-star officer in the rank of Admiral, commands the navy. The Indian Navy is the fifth largest in the world. It played an important role in India's victory in the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War.
The Indian Navy can trace its lineage back to the Honourable East India Company's Marine which was founded in 1612 to protect British merchant shipping in the region. In 1757 the East India Company established its rule over much of the Indian subcontinent, but it wasn't until 1830 that the colonial navy became known as Her Majesty's Indian Navy. In 1858, East India Company rule gave way to the British Raj which lasted until India became independent in 1947. When India became a republic in 1950, the Royal Indian Navy as it had been named since 1934 was renamed to Indian Navy. The 17th-century Maratha emperor Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is considered as the 'Father of the Indian Navy'.
Admiral Gorshkov may refer to:
Vikramaditya (IAST: Vikramāditya) was a legendary emperor from ancient India. He is characterised as the ideal king, known for his generosity, courage, and patronage of scholars. There are hundreds of legends about Vikramaditya, including the ones in Baital Pachisi and Singhasan Battisi. Most of the legends present him as a universal ruler with his capital at Ujjain (Pataliputra or Pratishthana in a few stories).
The name of the king means "the Sun of Valour" (vikrama means "valour" and aditya means "sun"). He is also known as Vikrama, Bikramjit and Vikramarka (arka also means "sun"). Some legends also describe him as a liberator of India from mlechchha invaders; the invaders are identified as Shakas in most of these tales leading to the king also being known by the epithet, Shakari (IAST: Śakāri; "enemy of the Shakas").
According to the popular tradition, Vikramaditya started the Vikrama Samvat era in 57 BCE, after defeating the Shakas. For this reason, those who believe him to be based on a distinct historical figure place him around the 1st century BCE. However, this era is mentioned as "Vikrama Samvat" only after the 9th century CE. Other scholars argue that that Vikramaditya is a mythical character as several of the legends about him are fantastic in nature. "Vikramaditya" was a common title adopted by several Indian kings, and it is possible that the various Vikramaditya legends are embellished accounts of different kings, particularly Chandragupta II.
The acronym "INS" can refer to:
INS Vikramaditya is the Indian Navy's largest short take-off, but assisted recovery (STOBAR) aircraft carrier and warship converted from the Russian Navy's decommissioned Admiral Gorshkov vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) missile cruiser carrier. INS Vikramaditya was commissioned into service in November 2013. The warship has been extensively refurbished with new propulsion systems, hull sections, sensors and flight deck. It was operationally deployed with full complement of MiG-29 aircraft in May 2014. The vessel can carry more than 30 long-range multi-role fighters with anti-ship missiles, air-to-air missiles, guided bombs and rockets. The aircraft aboard the carrier include MiG 29K / Sea Harrier combat aircraft, Kamov 31 radar picket Airborne Early Warning (AEW) helicopter, Kamov 28 ...
On Nov 17, the Vikramaditya joined the Indian Navy, becoming the third aircraft carrier in history to join its forces, and the largest ever warship. Deputy Editor Shiv Aroor, the first Indian journalist on board the 45,000 ton ship, brings you the turbulent story -- from its massive flight deck -- of a troubled warship whose time has finally come.

Admiral Gorshkov was a modified Kiev-class aircraft carrier of the Russian Navy, originally named Baku. Sometimes Admiral Gorshkov is considered a separate class due to its improvements including a phased array radar, extensive electronic warfare installations, and an enlarged command and control suite. Admiral Gorshkov is only Russian aircraft carrier of Project-1143.4 (chief designer V.F. Anikiev). In March 5, 2004, Admiral Gorshkov was sold to India for conversion into a STOBAR carrier.

This is a video I made after uncovering quite a lot of facts and evidences that likely prove that Islam worships an ancient Vedic Pagan God which it borrowed from Hindus while Bhaarat (Ancient India) under the Great King Vikramaditya ruled over Aravasthan (Arabia), before the reign of the Revered Prophet Mohammad. Obviously it is known that Islam borrowed all of their knowledge of Mathematics, Science, Astronomy, Literature, Medicine & Architecture from the Ancient Indians & the Vedic Culture and now, it is known that their God too is of Vedic Origin and mentioned in one of their own Arabic Poem, the "Sayar-Ul-Okul". "Allah" is a Sanskrit word, one of the names of Female Forms of Shiva or "Durga". It is a word, hijacked by Islam to suit its own purpose. This Video is not uploaded with...
The Meghdoot is an epic poem of over one hundred stanzas by Kalidas that describes human emotions, meteorological conditions, botanical and natural riches of the country. Kalidas was a court poet for Vikramaditya, Gupta Emperor in the Fifth Century AD. Thus far, the poem has been represented throughout the centuries in a language that addresses the higher and educated classes, by classical arts or translations which were meant for scholars.
