Simbex is an acronym for
Singapore-India Maritime Bilateral Exercises.
The 25th edition of SIMBEX,
“Singapore-India Maritime Bilateral Exercise” is scheduled to be held from
November 10- 21, 2018 in the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal.
The 2018 edition marks the
silver jubilee of SIMBEX.
The number of missiles and
torpedo firings being undertaken in this year's edition will be the largest the
Indian Navy has undertaken with any foreign Navy till date, which indicates the
growing trust and operational comfort between the two navies.
Bilateral cooperation between
Singapore and India was first formalised when RSN ships began training with the
Indian Navy in 1994.
