In 2011, India's Ministry of Defense finalized a project for the procurement of four Amphibious Warship (also referred to as "Multi-Role Support Vessel") in order to upgrade the nation's disaster response capabilities along with boosting amphibious warfare and island protection capabilities. Lately, as a precautionary measure against People's Republic of China's naval presence in the Indian ocean, acquiring amphibious warfare ships and aircraft carriers has become a top priority for Indian Navy. Consequently, Andaman and Nicobar Command (ANC) is being developed into a major Amphibious Warfare Hub for Indian Navy and it is considered crucial to counter China's strategic moves in the Indian Ocean as well as ensure security of these sea lanes.

Consequently, Andaman and Nicobar Command (ANC) is being developed into a major Amphibious Warfare Hub for Indian Navy and it is considered crucial to counter China's strategic moves in the Indian Ocean as well as ensure security of these sea lanes. As of 2011, reports pointed to the fact that India is looking for up to 4 LHD type aviation & amphibious ships, with most designs to come from foreign firms.
