As a\nnext step, both the countries are looking to improve their defence ties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In-Detail <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>As part of this, India will be\nleasing a Dornier aircraft, will bring Maldives to be a part of India\u2019s Coastal\nRadar Chain and broad-base humanitarian and disaster relief (HADR) exercise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The deal for leasing Dornier\naircraft for maritime surveillance will be finalized by the year-end or early\nnext year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As per diplomatic sources,\nMaldives is looking to transform its military and India is ready to assist the\ncountry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A few years ago, India had sent\na Letter of Exchange to the Maldives over its request for a two-year lease of\nDornier Aircraft. But, owing to the rupture in ties with the previous\ngovernment there was no response. With the new government, things have changed.\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In 2013, India had donated two\nAdvanced Light Helicopters (ALH) to the Maldives and they are of great service\nto the country flying round the clock for medical evacuation and rescue and\nrelief operations. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>These ALHs are operated by the\nIndian Coast Guard and the Indian Navy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Radar Stations <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Now, Maldives has become a part\nof India\u2019s coastal radar chain. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Three radars are to be\ninstalled in the island nation, of which, two are already operational and the\nthird is an advanced stage. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Coastal Surveillance Network<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The radar chain began after the\n26\/11 terrorist attack to monitor movement on the sea.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A total of 46 static radar\nsensors along the Indian coast and other countries. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>36 radars are to be installed\non the Indian mainland and 10 on island countries like Maldives, Mauritius, Sri\nLanka and Seychelles. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Though the plan is to install\nradar on Seychelles fell apart, the rest will soon become a reality. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maldives is a key partner in India\u2019s maritime security strategy in the Indian Ocean.
