INS Sunayna participated in the 2023 Operation Southern Readiness of Combined Maritime Forces Exercise.
This reinforces the Indian Navy's commitment to maritime security in the Indian Ocean Region and marks the maiden participation of an Indian Navy ship in the CMF exercise.
The Combined Maritime Forces (CMF) is a multinational maritime partnership, which exists to uphold the Rules-Based International Order (RBIO) by countering illicit non-state actors on the high seas and promoting security, stability, and prosperity across approximately 3.2 million square miles of international waters, which encompass some of the world’s most important shipping lanes.
CMF has 38 member nations.
The 38 nations that comprise CMF are not bound by either a fixed political or military mandate. CMF is a flexible organisation.
