INS Trikand, frontline guided missile frigate of the Indian Navy, arrived at Mombasa, Kenya, on April 7, 2026, as part of its ongoing deployment in the South West Indian Ocean Region. The visit aims to strengthen maritime cooperation and enhance bilateral ties between India and Kenya.
The port call coincides with the visit of Vice Admiral Krishna Swaminathan, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Western Naval Command, to Kenya.
Professional, cultural and social engagements will be progressed during the stay, and essential stores will be handed over to the Kenya Defence Forces. Additionally, the ship's Commanding Officer will call on senior government functionaries.
On departure from Mombasa, INS Trikand will engage in a Passage Exercise (PASSEX) with units of the Kenya Navy. The exercise will facilitate exchange of Best Practices and enhance bilateral maritime interoperability.
The port call by INS Trikand is aligned with India's vision of MAHASAGAR - Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth Across Regions.
