VISAKHAPATNAM (PTI): The sea phase of the multinational naval exercise MILAN-2024, which witnessed the participation of 35 units of vessels, submarines and aircraft, concluded in Visakhapatnam on Tuesday.
Thirteen vessels and one aircraft from friendly foreign countries were part of the sea phase exercises, along with the Indian Navy's INS Vikramaditya and INS Vikrant aircraft carriers.
"All units undertook a series of complex and advanced exercises in the domains of surface, sub-surface and air warfare, including exercises against asymmetric threats," the Navy's Eastern Naval Command said in a release.
