The Indian Navy recently showcased its preparedness to protect maritime interests by successfully conducting anti-ship missile firings. The demonstration comes at a crucial time, with tensions running high in the region following the Pahalgam terror attack. The latest addition to the Indian Navy’s fleet, INS Surat, an indigenous guided missile destroyer, played a key role in the exercises. In addition to the anti-ship missile firings, INS Surat also test-fired the MR-SAM system, further bolstering the Navy’s defense capabilities. These successful tests serve as a testament to the Indian Navy’s commitment to safeguarding the country’s maritime borders and ensuring security at sea. The exercises highlight the Navy’s readiness to respond to any threats effectively and decisively. With the inclusion of advanced technologies and indigenous defense systems, the Indian Navy continues to strengthen its position as a formidable maritime force in the region.
