CINBAX: Indian, Cambodian Armies participate in joint Table Top Exercise in Pune

| @indiablooms | Dec 02, 2024, at 12:30 am

The first edition of the Joint Table Top Exercise, CINBAX, between the Indian Army and the Cambodian Army commenced at the Foreign Training Node, Pune on Sunday.

The exercise will be conducted from December 1 to 8.

"The Cambodian Army contingent will comprise 20 personnel and the Indian Army contingent is also comprising 20 personnel from an Infantry Brigade," the Indian government said in a statement.

Why Exercise is important?

Exercise CINBAX is a planning exercise aimed to wargame conduct of joint Counter Terrorism (CT) operations under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter.

The exercise will focus on discussions pertaining to establishment of Joint Training Task Force for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance besides planning of operations in CT environment.

Various contingencies will be war gamed and the employment of force multipliers in the sub-conventional operations will also be discussed.

The exercise will also involve discussion on information operations, cyber warfare, hybrid warfare, logistics and casualty management, HADR operations etc.

The exercise will be conducted in three phases. Phase-I will focus on preparations and orientation of participants for CT operations during UN peace keeping missions. Phase-II will involve conduct of the Table Top exercises and Phase-III will involve finalisation of plans and summing up.

This will bring out practical aspects of the theme-based training and aims to enable the participants to comprehend the procedures through situation-based discussions and tactical exercises.

The exercise will also showcase weapons and equipment of the Indian origin promoting ‘Atmanirbharta’ and indigenous capabilities in defence production.

The inaugural edition of Exercise CINBAX will focus on enhancing trust, camaraderie and achieving desired level of interoperability between troops of both the sides.

It will also enhance the joint operational efficiency of both the Armies while undertaking peace keeping operations.
