Two frontline warships of the Indian Navy arrived in Singapore to participate in the inaugural edition of the ASEAN-India Maritime Exercise.
The harbour phase of the exercise is scheduled to be held at the Changi Naval Base from May 2 to 4, while the sea phase will be conducted from May 7 to 8 in the South China Sea.
The two Indian naval ships that arrived in Singapore are INS Satpura and INS Delhi.
INS Delhi is India's first indigenously-built guided missile destroyer, while INS Satpura is an indigenously-built guided missile stealth frigate.
Both the ships are part of the navy's Eastern Fleet based in Visakhapatnam.
The ships are fitted with state-of-the-art weapons and sensors.
The ships, during their port call at Singapore, will also participate in the International Maritime Defence Exhibition (IMDEX-23) and the International Maritime Security Conference (IMSC) being hosted by Singapore.
