INS Sahyadri will carry out coordinated maritime activities at sea with which Republic of Korea Navy ship?

  1. A.ROKS Sejong the Great
  2. B.ROKS Dokdo
  3. C.ROKS Munmu the Great
  4. D.ROKS Chungmugong Yi Sun-sin

Correct answer

C. ROKS Munmu the Great

Explanation

The correct answer is ROKS Munmu the Great. The exercise is arranged in two parts. During the harbour phase the two navies hold professional interactions, cross-deck visits, cross-training and sporting events while the Indian frigate is alongside at Busan. The sea phase that follows brings INS Sahyadri together with ROKS Munmu the Great for coordinated maritime activities, which are meant to sharpen operational coordination and interoperability between the two fleets. Options A, B and D name other vessels and none of them is the partner ship for this engagement. For the examination it helps to fix the pair as a unit, Sahyadri with Munmu the Great, because a question on a bilateral exercise very often asks which two ships worked together rather than asking about the exercise in general terms.
