RAdm Anshuman Chauhan ACNS(AM), reviewed the Passing Out Division of 71stAEO/ALO Course @IN_NIAT. Culminating 56 weeks of rigorous professional training, the occasion made history with passing out of the first two women ATOs of the Naval Air Arm #WomenInUniform#71stAEOALOCourse
In the aftermath of the cowardly attacks on innocent Indian tourists at #Pahalgam by Pakistani sponsored terrorists on #22Apr 25, the #IndianNavy’s Carrier Battle Group, surface forces, submarines and aviation assets were immediately deployed at sea with full combat readiness, in concert with the joint operational plan of the Indian Defence Forces.
Within 96 hrs of the terrorist attack, the #IndianNavy tested and refined tactics & procedures at sea during multiple weapon Firings in the Arabian Sea, revalidating the crew, armament, equipment & platform readiness to deliver various ordnance on selected targets precisely.
The #IndianNavy remained forward deployed in the Northern Arabian Sea in a dissuasive and deterrent posture, with full readiness and capacity to strike select targets at sea, and on land, compelling Pakistani Naval and air units to be in a defensive posture, inside harbours or very close to their coast.
As part of the escalation control mechanism, the application of force by the Navy was planned in a synchronised manner in concert with the #IndianArmy and the #IndianAirForce.
Along with kinetic actions by the Army and the Air Force, the overwhelming operational edge of Indian Navy at sea, contributed towards Pakistan’s urgent request for a ceasefire yesterday.
The #IndianNavy remains deployed at sea in a credible deterrent posture, to respond decisively to any inimical action by Pakistan, or Pakistan based terrorist.
