INS Tarkash has been out in the sea for months. She set sail from Mumbai, went to the southern end of South Africa probably making a port call in the Cape of Good Hope. From there she entered the South Atlantic Ocean and traveled north all the way to Morocco(see pics in post #61 of this thread). From there she went through the English channel and the North sea, somehow navigated though the sea between Denmark and Sweden eventually ending up in the Baltic sea. Traveled further up north to reach the destination she set out for : St. Petersburg to attend Russia's Navy Day Parade.

And now on her way back home she is conducting exercises with the Royal Navy.

Not bad for a ~4000 ton vessel, huh ? Most frigates around the world don't usually travel anywhere near those distances and she is traveling all by herself.
