Additionally, three officer cadets and six women cadets from friendly foreign countries successfully completed their training, fostering bonds of camaraderie and cooperation across international borders, the OTA said.

Reviewing the impressive and meticulously turned-out passing-out parade by the contingents at the Parameshwaran drill square, OTA, Chennai, Air Chief Marshal VR Chaudhari said warfare was undergoing a fundamental change with the emergence of new technology and radically newer doctrines.

“India’s security dynamics involves multi-faceted threats and challenges. It would require us to build multi-domain capabilities and execute operations simultaneously and in shortened timeframes,” he said and called upon the young officers to stay abreast with technological advancements.

These officers were joining the noble profession when the country was at the threshold of a technological transformation, he said. “Our armed forces have invested heavily in acquiring the next generation war-fighting machines. You, as future operators of these highly potent systems, need to be fully conversant with them, and this can be achieved only through rigorous training, dedication and a professional approach,” the Air Marshal said.
