INS Kolkata and INS Shakti participated in SIMBEX-19.
SIMBEX (Singapore-India Maritime Bilateral Exercise) is an annual bilateral naval exercise. In 2019 (SIMBEX-19), which took place in the South China Sea, Indian Naval Ships Kolkata (a guided-missile destroyer) and Shakti (a fleet support ship/tanker) participated along with other Indian Navy assets. The modern INS Vikrant (India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier) was commissioned much later, in 2022.
SIMBEX is the longest uninterrupted naval exercise India has with any other country. It is aimed at enhancing inter-operability between the two navies and strengthening maritime security cooperation.
