The Indian Army is conducting a high-intensity tri-services exercise Poorvi Prahar from the 10th to the 18th of this month in the forward areas of Arunachal Pradesh. This joint exercise aims to hone the combat effectiveness of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force in executing Integrated Joint Operations in the challenging mountainous terrain of the region.

According to the Indian Army, the exercise brings together a wide spectrum of cutting-edge military platforms and systems, showcasing the country’s advancements in modern warfare technology. All three services utilise advanced fighter aircraft, reconnaissance platforms, helicopters such as the Chinook and Advanced Light Helicopter (Rudra), along with M777 Ultra-Light Howitzers during the exercise. These state-of-the-art assets provide an unprecedented level of mobility, firepower, and precision in the region’s challenging topography.

Poorvi Prahar is the integration of innovative technologies that are reshaping the future of military operations. Troops are operating and refining skills with Swarm Drones, Loitering Munitions, and cutting-edge technologies that enhance situational awareness, precision strikes, and operational flexibility. The exercise underscores the country’s determination to maintain a robust and adaptable defence posture along its Eastern frontier, especially in light of evolving regional dynamics. With Poorvi Prahar, the Indian Armed Forces are enhancing their ability to execute seamless, multi-domain operations across land, air, and sea, reinforcing India’s strategic deterrence capabilities.
