Indian Navy, South African Navy sign implementing agreement to enhance submarine rescue transport cooperative

| @indiablooms | 04 Sep 2024, 05:28 pm

In a significant milestone to develop bilateral naval cooperation, the Indian Navy and the South African Navy have signed an Implementing Agreement (IA) that ensures the safety of the South African Navy’s submarine crew in times of distress or accident.

"This agreement was signed by Admiral Dinesh K. Tripathi, Chief of the Naval Staff of the Indian Navy and Vice Admiral Monde Lobese, Chief of the South African Navy," read a government statement.

The Implementing Agreement underscores a shared commitment to maritime safety and mutual support.

Under this agreement, the Indian Navy will provide assistance by deploying its Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV) when required, further strengthening the collaborative ties between the two navies.

This partnership reinforces the longstanding maritime relationship between India and South Africa.
