Two second-hand electric motors, originally designed to drive windshield wipers of autorickshaws, propel the scale-sized, radio-controlled working model of INS Shivalik, Indian Navy's most modern, multi-role frigate with stealth features.

Its maker, K. Roopesh, says he salvaged the tiny motors from a scrap yard to save on costs.

The Indian Navy had commissioned the hobbyist to make a working model of the top-of-the-line battleship to instruct its seamen.

"Ropeesh sought the services of Vinod Madhav"- these two guys are local.he belongs to kerela. besides, roopesh sir is also associated with indian Navy.. all points directed towards him..
hence proved

It's really proud matter that we have such a great person on this forum. Not only by art but Roopesh sir is really nice person by heart also. Words are not enough to describe him. Thanks OP to bring this in limelight.
