Exercise will help maritime security in Indo-Pacific region

Date:

The 19th edition of the October 14-19 exercise is being conducted in the Bay of Bengal and the thrust areas include anti-submarine warfare, air defence and search and rescue tactical procedures, among others.

For any country, security tops the list when it comes to getting priorities straight. For India, US and Japan too, it’s the same case. In a bid to improve maritime security, these three countries have come together for the Naval Exercise-‘MALABAR’.

This exercise, involving India, US and Japan, will help maritime security in the Indo-Pacific region, the three navies said on Thursday.

“MALABAR-15 will be another significant step in strengthening mutual confidence and inter-operability as well as sharing best practices between the Indian, Japanese and US navies,” a joint press release issued by them here said.

“The exercise will also go a long way in enhancing maritime security in the Indo-Pacific region, for the benefit of the global maritime community,” it said about the exercise which began on Wednesday.

The 19th edition of the October 14-19 exercise is being conducted in the Bay of Bengal and the thrust areas include anti-submarine warfare, air defence and search and rescue tactical procedures, among others.

A range of naval ships from the three countries, including INS Shivalik, USS Theodore Roosevelt and JS Fuyuzuki will be part of the exercise, it said.
