Which Indian Navy ship took part in the 4th edition of Exercise Samudra Laksamana?

  1. A.INS Vikrant
  2. B.INS Mysore
  3. C.INS Shivalik
  4. D.INS Kolkata

Correct answer

B. INS Mysore

Explanation

The correct answer is INS Mysore. The ship was deployed as part of the Indian Navy's operational deployment and took part in the fourth edition of the exercise at Lumut in Malaysia. During the operational phase at sea it exercised with two ships of the Royal Malaysian Navy, KD Lekir and KD Gagah Samudera, and the ships carried out coordinated manoeuvres meant to improve interoperability and operational coordination. Option A is wrong because the aircraft carrier was not named in this release. Option C is wrong because that ship did not feature in this engagement, though ships of its class are regularly deployed for such exercises. Option D is wrong on the same ground. Candidates should pair the ship with the exercise and with the venue, since examiners often frame the question the other way round and ask which exercise INS Mysore was deployed for.
