Indian Air Force (IAF) C-17 aircraft landed in Mauritius with an ALH MK III helicopter to be handed over to the Govt. This will now be enhanced with the cooperation of IFC-IOR. The maritime security architecture in the western Indian Ocean is supported by the Regional Maritime Information Fusion Centre (RMIFC), RCOC and the national centres of the seven signatory countries: Comoros, Djibouti, France, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, and Seychelles. The MoU aims to promote collaboration between the two centres towards enhancing maritime domain awareness, information sharing and expertise development. This relationship has been enhanced by an MoU between India’s maritime monitoring centre IFC-IOR and Regional Coordination Operations Centre (RCOC), Seychelles on 21 February. The two nations regularly conduct joint patrols in the western Indian Ocean along with transfer of equipment, deployments and training. Further to the south of Oman, the African island nation of Seychelles also has close ties with India. Dozens of warships and aircraft have also used Oman for such transits. India has used Muscat and Duqm ports in Oman for operational turnarounds of submarines since 2017. However, the public deployment of a submarine through the strategic Sunda Strait, between the Indonesian islands of Java and Sumatra, demonstrates India’s willingness to try and counter increasing naval deployments by China to the Indian Ocean Region. Indian warships and aircraft have increasingly transited the disputed South China Sea, visiting countries like Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines and Japan. yLwnJWTKDX- SpokespersonNavy February 24, 2023 Highly enriching engagements with conducted during port call, strengthening #maritime partnership b/n #India🇮🇳 & #Indonesia🇮🇩 towards safer & secure #IndoPacific. #BridgesofFriendship #IndianNavy's submarine #INSSindhukesari visited #Jakarta, Indonesia 22 – 24 Feb 23.
