An Indian Air Force (IAF) team has reached the Mont-de-Marsan Air Base
in France to take part in the Garuda-2025 air exercise. The exercise will
be held from November 16 to 27.
India and France have a long history of working together in defence,
technology, and security. The IAF said on social media that Garuda-2025
will highlight the skills and strong operations of both countries’ air
forces.
During the exercise, India’s Su-30 MKI fighter jets will train with
France’s Rafale fighter jets in a mock combat setting. This training
will help both sides work better together, learn from each other, and
further strengthen their defence partnership.
