  1. Sri Lanka: Not a party to COMCASA or any of India's foundational defence pacts of this kind.
  2. Japan: Despite close defence cooperation with India, COMCASA is not an agreement between India and Japan.
  3. Russia: India's defence ties with Russia run through separate, older frameworks, not COMCASA.
  4. US: COMCASA is the 2018 India-US pact enabling encrypted, interoperable military communication, and it is under this agreement that the Indian Navy set up its reliable link with US Pacific naval commands.

The correct answer is US, the country India signed the COMCASA agreement with.
