The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS John S. McCain (DDG 56) makes its approach toward the Indian Navy Deepak-class fleet tanker INS Shakti (A 57) and the Royal Australian Navy Anzac-class frigate HMAS Ballarat (FFH 155) to conduct a replenishment-at-sea during Malabar 2020. Malabar is an India-led multinational exercise designed to enhance cooperation between Indian Navy (IN), Royal Australian Navy (RAN), Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) and U.S. maritime forces. Australian, Indian, Japanese and American maritime forces routinely operate together in the Indo-Pacific, fostering a cooperative approach toward regional security and stability.
