Military allies Russia and India will hold their largest-ever wargames in October with a focus on anti-terrorism combat using airborne commandos and ground forces, India's defence ministry said Thursday. They said the joint military exercises would be held in the sprawling Thar desert bordering Pakistan in the middle of October.
The week-long wargames involving special forces of the two post Cold War allies would "seek to strike an inter-operability between land forces for possible future operations under international peacekeeping banners in third countries," an official said.
"The wargames will entail blitzkreig-style anti-terrorist commando operations with the use of aircraft and helicopters," he said.
