India Concludes ‘Trishul’ — Largest-Ever Tri-Service Exercise Showcasing Joint Combat Power

India’s largest tri-service military drill, Trishul, concluded after demonstrating unprecedented joint combat capabilities across Rajasthan, Gujarat, and the North Arabian Sea.

In a statement issued by the Naval spokesperson today, it was stated that the joint exercise was conducted between November 3 and 7.

The exercise brought together over 30,000 personnel from the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, featuring 20-25 surface and subsurface naval assets, more than 40 aircraft with supporting ground systems of the IAF, and a range of indigenous weapon platforms from all three Services.

Participation of the Indian Coast Guard, BSF and other Central agencies further reinforced inter-agency coordination, exemplifying jointness, 'aatmanirbharta' and innovation.

As part of the exercise, the Indian Army also conducted Exercise Brahmashira in the Rann and Creek Sector, bringing together the three Services, Indian Coast Guard and BSF in seamless coordination with civil administration to validate integrated capabilities across land, sea and air.

Embodying the Indian Army’s decade of transformation, the exercise integrates joint task forces, a state-of-the-art joint control centre and robust operational infrastructure to sustain multi-domain operations.

It also validates new structures, advanced technologies and adaptive warfighting capabilities.

Exercise Brahmashira highlights India’s commitment to military-civil fusion and a 'whole-of-nation' approach, showcasing the armed forces’ ability to deliver rapid coordinated decisive responses across domains, according to the defence spokesperson.
