JIMEX-2020

Описание: #BridgesofFriendship #HarKaamDeshKeNaam The fourth edition of bilateral maritime exercise between #IndianNavy (IN) and Japan Maritime Self Defence Force #JMSDF, culminated with a steampast that saw personnel of the two navies waving out to each other in friendship and mutual respect as they parted ways after an intense three-day multi-domain engagement in the Arabian Sea. Conducted between 26 and 28 September 2020, this edition of #JIMEX had the JMSDF being represented by the helicopter carrier, JS Kaga, and guided missile destroyer, JS Ikazuchi, which were led by Rear Admiral Konno Yasushige, Commander Escort Flotilla Two #CCF2. The IN was represented by the guided missile destroyer INS Chennai, guided missile frigate INS Tarkash, replenishment tanker INS Deepak and P8I, and were led by Rear Admiral Krishna Swaminathan, Flag Officer Commanding Western Fleet. JIMEX-2020 was different from previous exercises of the series not only because it saw significant rise in the level and scope of exercises undertaken, but also since it was conducted entirely in a non-contact format from planning to execution. Reflecting the strong bonds of friendship and trust shared by the two nations, JIMEX-2020 highlighted a high level of mutual understanding and #interoperability between their navies.
