Indian, Singapore Air Force Starts Military Exercise At Air Force Station Kalaikunda
The 11th edition of the annual joint military training between the Indian Air Force (IAF) and the Singapore Air Force (SAF) commenced at Air Force Station, Kalaikunda on Thursday.
The two Air Forces have resumed this training after a gap of two years because training could not be carried out in the intervening two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
This edition of the joint military exercise will be conducted over six weeks. The bilateral phase of the exercise will be conducted from 9 to 18 November and will see the two air forces engage in advanced air combat simulations.
The RSAF is participating in the exercise with F-16 aircraft, while the IAF would field the Su-30 MKI, Jaguar, MiG-29 and LCA Tejas aircraft.
According to the defence ministry's statement, the exercise underscores the strong and longstanding relationship between India and Singapore in defence cooperation and provides the participating contingents with an opportunity to share valuable operational knowledge, experiences and best practices while strengthening the professional bonds between the two Air Forces.
