Quad, South Korea begin Naval exercise
The Quad — a four-nation grouping comprising India, the US, Japan and Australia — has been joined by South Korea for a naval exercise focused on tracking submarines.
Called “Exercise Sea Dragon-25”, the drill will test anti-submarine warfare capabilities, including detecting both simulated and live submarines, tracking their locations around the clock and launching attacks.
The exercise is being conducted off Guam, a US military base in the western Pacific Ocean, and is being hosted by the US from March 4 to 19.
Anti-submarine warfare plays a crucial role in enhancing the Quad countries’ ability to conduct intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions.
