Three Eastern Fleet units, (frontline warships) departed Indian shores in mid June and have since been operating in the South China Sea and Western Pacific. The warships earlier participated in the Indo-Russian bilateral naval exercise INDRA 14 and the trilateral naval exercise MALABAR 14 with the US Navy and Japanese Maritime Self Defence Force (JMSDF), in the N W Pacific & Sea of Japan. As a part of this deployment, INS Shivalik, a guided missile stealth frigate, under the Command of Captain Puruvir Das NM, has arrived at Hai Phong on a three day goodwill visit. The visit is aimed at strengthening bilateral ties and enhancing inter- operability between navies of the two nations. During the stay in harbour, various activities are planned including official calls, reception on board ship, ship open to visitors, guided tours for Indian naval personnel and professional interaction between personnel of both the navies. On departure, the ship will exercise with Vietnamese Naval ships for improving inter-operability in communication, search and rescue procedures and other areas.

MOSCOW, August 05. /ITAR- TASS/. Russia's Kamov helicopter design bureau is ready to supply jointly with the Russian Helicopters rotocraft producer the necessary number of modern seaborne helicopters for the Indian Navy on request, Kamov Chief Designer Sergei Mikheyev said on Tuesday. "Upon request from the Indian Navy, we are ready to supply jointly with Russian Helicopters the necessary number of seaborne helicopters and offer the latest developments to the Indian side, including the Ka-52K helicopters," Mikheyev said. Helicopters operational in the Indian Navy and Coastal Guard have long grown obsolete over the absence of programs for the purchase of helicopters in the past decade, strict armament-buying procedures and the scandal-hit Augusta- Westland chopper deal, India Today reported recently. The deteriorating condition of helicopters prompted Indian Defense Minister Arun Jaitley to raise the problem at a session of the Defense Acquisition Council on July 19. Many Indian warships equipped with two hangars have no helicopters on their board. In particular, only three out of six Talwar-class frigates are supplied with choppers while others have none. The Indian Navy and Coastal Guard have only 20% of the required number of helicopters.
