The exercise is being conducted jointly by the Indian Navy and the Combined Maritime Forces (CMF) under Combined Task Force 154 (CTF 154). Combined Task Force 154 (CTF 154) is the dedicated training task force of the Combined Maritime Forces, focusing on training, professional development, and operational coordination. The exercise includes classroom instruction, simulator-based training, and practical exercises aboard an Indian Naval ship. The Indian Navy assumed command of CTF 154 in February 2026, with Commodore Milind M. Mokashi becoming the first Indian officer to lead a CMF task force.

Force protection, damage control, firefighting, survival at sea, and boarding procedures are key components of modern naval training.
