PHILIPPINE SEA - PHILIPPINE SEA (July 4, 2023) The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Howard (DDG 83), bottom, and the Republic of Korea navy destroyer ROKS Munmu the Great (DDG 976) sail in formation in the Philippine Sea during Pacific Vanguard 23, July 4, 2023. Pacific Vanguard is an opportunity for the four Indo-Pacific navies to strengthen their skills in maritime operations, anti-submarine warfare operations, air warfare operations, live-fire missile events, and advanced maneuvering scenarios in the Mariana Islands Range Complex (MIRC). The U.S. military routinely operates in designated land, air, and sea areas of the Mariana Islands to safely train military service members in equipment use, tactics, joint operations, and humanitarian aid missions.
