It's very nice training to have made that drop, to have carried it give the sense of a nice level of readiness.Reports on the incident seems to suggest that the pirates only engaged the INS Kolkata destroyer, some 60 year old HAL Chetak choppers providing surveillance, and a drone (which they shot down). The Indian Navy retaliated solely with warning shots and the 40 hour long standoff pretty much ended with no casualties on either side. Additional MARCOS members where only paradropped later on to assist the existing force following the pirates surrender, so it wasn't a airborne insertion of any sort
