Japan will permanently join Indo-US naval exercises
Much to the joy of defence enthusiasts in India, Japan has agreed to become a permanent participant of the Indo-US bilateral naval exercise 'Malabar'. Japan has sent its front line destroyer ship 'Fuyuzuki' to take part in Malabar 2015 which is being conducted in Bay of Bengal.
"MALABAR-15 will be another significant step in strengthening mutual confidence and inter-operability as well as sharing best practices between the Indian, Japanese and US navies," a joint press release issued by these navies said. This year's edition of Malabar will see USS Theodor Roosevelt in action. Indian Navy will be represented by INS Shivalik, INS Ranvijay, INS Betwa, INS Shakti, an Kilo-class submarine & a P-8 I reconnaissance aircraft.

India advances strategic partnership with Turkey
As part of Indian Navy's overseas deployment to West Asia, its front line warship INS Trikhand made port call at Istanbul's Sarayburnu Port from Oct. 4 to 7. INS Trikand's visit to İstanbul closely follows the visit of Turkish frigate TCG Gediz, which made port calls at Mumbai and Chennai in India in April and July, respectively, this year.
Speaking during a reception on the INS Trikand at Sarayburnu Port on Monday, Capt. Vinay Kalia said the visit seeks to underscore India's peaceful presence and solidarity with other countries and strengthen the existing bonds between India and Turkey. Kalia said Indian naval assets are regularly deployed as part of the Indian Navy's mission to build “bridges of friendship” and strengthen international cooperation with friendly countries, as well as address maritime concerns of the region, including piracy in the Gulf of Aden.
