The Japanese Navy will showcase before the Indian Navy a seaplane and its operations during the ongoing trilateral Malabar maritime exercise, also involving the US Navy, off Nagasaki’s Port Sasebo in western Pacific Ocean.

The seaplane, which the Indian Navy wants to procure and deploy in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands for maritime patrol, is built by Japanese firm Shin Maywa. US-2, as the amphibious plane is called, can take off from and land on water and is a suitable platform for operations between island territories.
