The exercise was conducted in an electronically contested environment, simulating modern warfare scenarios where communication and data-sharing were tested against potential disruptions.
‘Prachand Prahaar’ builds upon the momentum of Exercise Poorvi Prahar, which was conducted in November 2024. While Poorvi Prahar focused primarily on the integrated application of aviation assets, ‘Prachand Prahaar’ emphasized multi-domain integration, involving multiple platforms and simulated real-time warfare conditions.
