Correct Answer: Guided-missile destroyerYour Answer: C
Explanation
Correct Answer: Option C — **Guided-missile destroyer**. **Guided-missile destroyer** is the accurate answer because INS Kolkata is the lead ship of an Indian Navy class of guided-missile destroyers. Why the other options are incorrect: Option A — **Operation Meghdoot**: This is actually associated with military operation; specifically, Operation Meghdoot was launched in April 1984 for control of strategic heights in the Siachen area. Option B — **4 December**: This is actually associated with commemorative day; specifically, it recalls the Indian Navy’s role in Operation Trident during the 1971 war. Option D — **Bengaluru**: This is actually associated with defence public-sector enterprise; specifically, BEL is a defence electronics public-sector enterprise headquartered in Bengaluru. Exam Takeaway: Link **Guided-missile destroyer** with its exact **surface combatant** association for fast **Indian Defence GK** revision.
Important Notes
- **Identity:** Guided-missile destroyer is associated with surface combatant.
- **Key fact:** INS Kolkata is the lead ship of an Indian Navy class of guided-missile destroyers.
- **Exam trap:** Check whether the question asks about a service, institution, missile role, platform, operation or exercise before choosing a similarly familiar defence term.
