At present, the Army and the Air Force have their own training commands. While the Navy does not have a training command, this task is carried out by the Southern Naval Command. The training of the three services is different and the standards of operation of weapons, defense equipment are also different. Even the Air Force and the Army have different Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for operating the same type of aircraft under similar conditions.
Sources said that in future a joint training command of the three services could be formed. However, some informed sources say that the idea of creating a Joint Training Command was an earlier idea. Now instead of going ahead on this, it has been decided to arrange joint training within the theater command itself. Four major advantages- 1. There will be better coordination in the working of the three services. Joint operations can be carried out 3. The capacity of the forces will increase 4. Economic resources will be saved
