Defence & Security Cooperation between the two countries has strengthened over the years.
Exchange of high-level visits, signing of MoU on Border Cooperation, training, Army, Air Force and Naval Staff Talks are important indicators in this direction.
"CNS Admiral Sunil Lamba (1-4 Nov 2016) and COAS Gen. Bipin Rawat (27-31 May 2017) visited Myanmar and held wide-ranging discussions on enhancing the scope of defence relations," read the statement issued the Indian Embassy in Myanmar.
In July 2017, Sr Gen Min Aung Hliang, C-in-C Myanmar Defense Services visited India, in what was his second visit in as many years, giving an opportunity to further cement defence ties. MOU on Maritime Security Cooperation was signed in September 2017 and MOU on Defence Cooperation was signed in July 2019.
The last visit by CNS, Admiral KB Singh to Myanmar took place from 17-20 February 2020.
