Indian Naval Ship (INS) Delhi and Satpura arrived in Sihanoukville, Cambodia on 12 May 2023 as part of the Indian Navy’s deployment to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries.
“During the port call, personnel from both navies will engage in a wide range of professional interactions, deck visits, and sports exchanges to enhance interoperability and mutual understanding,” the Ministry of Defence said.
INS Delhi is India’s first indigenously built guided missile destroyer.
INS Satpura is also an indigenous multi-purpose stealth frigate, which can carry multi-role helicopters.
India and Cambodia have been working together to enhance cooperation in a wide range of areas, including trade, investment, and tourism.
