Which Indian Naval Ship participated in Exercise Cutlass Express, 2021 ?

Explanation

INS Talwar participated in the multinational maritime exercise Cutlass Express 2021 (CE 21), conducted from July 26 to August 6, 2021, along the East Coast of Africa. Sponsored by the U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM), the exercise focused on enhancing regional cooperation, maritime domain awareness, and interoperability to counter illegal maritime activities in the Western Indian Ocean.

The Indian Navy participated in a 'trainer role'. During the exercise, INS Talwar's crew and Marine Commandos (MARCOS) trained personnel from various East African navies in maritime security operations. The 2021 edition involved 12 East African nations, the U.S., the U.K., and international organisations like the IMO and Interpol. India's participation highlights its commitment to the SAGAR (Security and Growth for All in the Region) vision, aimed at fostering maritime security and cooperation in the Indian Ocean Region.
