Prior to arriving here, the Indian Navy and the Royal Navy of Oman will conduct a bilateral maritime exercise Naseem Aseem Al Bahr in the Arabian Sea till January 27. Naseem Aseem Al Bahr epitomises the strong long term strategic relationship between the two countries.

Initiated in 1993, the exercise has matured over the years with increasing scope, complexity of operations and level of participation. The current exercise will be the 10th such exercise.

During the exercise, the Indian Navy will be represented by INS Trikand and INS Trishul.

In addition, Fast Attack Craft, Maritime Patrol Aircraft and integral helicopters are scheduled to participate in the bilateral exercise.
