INS Shivalik's victory in the Naval Gunfire Support Competition at the Rim of the Pacific Exercise (RIMPAC) 2024, the world’s largest international maritime exercise with participation from 29 nations, underscores the Indian Navy's professionalism and precision.
The multi-role stealth frigate's exceptional firepower and accuracy secured the prestigious RODEO trophy, marking a significant milestone in India's maritime journey.
RIMPAC began in 1971 as an annual exercise by the US, Australia, and Canada, but became a biennial event in 1974. India first participated in RIMPAC in 2014 with INS Sahyadri.
