"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain.

As part of her deployment, Indian Navy's guided missile frigate INS Trishul made a port call at Alexandria, Egypt from September 14 to 17, 2026. The ship was accorded a warm welcome with the Egyptian Naval Ship Al Qadeer escorting on arrival at Alexandria Harbour.
The Commanding Officer and crew of INS Trishul paid homage to the Bravehearts of the two World Wars at the Chatby War Memorial, which contains 12 burials and bears the names of 19 Indian soldiers who died in ships sunk in the Eastern Mediterranean.
The Ambassador of India to Egypt, His Excellency Suresh K. Reddy, visited INS Trishul and interacted with the ship's crew. During the interaction, he highlighted the importance of the Indian Navy's presence in the region.
INS Trishul undertook a Passage Exercise (PASSEX) with Egyptian Navy Ship ENS Bernees. The exercise involved coordinated manoeuvring drills, communication exercises and approaches for replenishment at sea, providing an opportunity for personnel of both navies to exchange professional expertise and enhance interoperability.
The port call and the PASSEX reaffirm the longstanding relationship between the Indian Navy and the Egyptian Navy and contribute to strengthening maritime cooperation between the two friendly nations.
