Indian Naval Ship (INS) Sahyadri has reached Guam in the Northern Pacific for participation in the multilateral Exercise Malabar-2025. India’s stealth warship will take part in the exercise beginning tomorrow, November 10. Malabar 2025 includes naval drills between the Navies of India, Japan, Australia, and USA.

“The participation of INS Sahyadri in Exercise Malabar-2025 reaffirms India’s enduring partnership and its commitment to strengthening coordination, enhancing interoperability, and demonstrating a collective resolve to safeguard regional security," the Indian Navy said.

Malabar 2025 will take place at Guam, a US island territory located in the western Pacific Ocean, roughly halfway between Japan and Australia. The region serves as a key maritime hub for Indo-Pacific security cooperation.

As per the official statement, INS Sahyadri is an example of the ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ vision and has participated in several bilateral and multilateral exercises, as well as operational deployments. It is indigenously designed and constructed and is a Guided Missile Stealth Frigate.

“The Harbour Phase of Exercise Malabar-2025 will feature operational planning and discussions, alignment on communication protocols, familiarisation visits between participating nations, and sports fixtures. Following the harbour phase, all participating units will proceed for the Sea Phase, wherein ships and aircraft will take part in naval drills, focusing on joint fleet operations, anti-submarine warfare, gunnery serials and flying operations," the Navy’s statement read.
