Indian Navy undertaking mega exercise in Indian Ocean Region
New Delhi, Jan 24 (PTI) The Indian Navy is carrying out a mega war game involving almost all its operational assets like warships, submarines and aircraft in the Indian Ocean Region to check the force’s combat readiness amid China’s growing military forays into the region.
The biennial Theatre Level Operational Readiness Exercise (TROPEX) is aimed at “validating and refining” the Navy’s concept of “operations” as well as to test overall combat capabilities, officials said on Tuesday.
The TROPEX is being conducted over a duration of three months from January to March and assets of the Indian Army, the Indian Air Force and the Coast Guard are being deployed for the mega drills.
