October 26, 2020 - U.S. Navy
ships assigned to Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group joined
ships of Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) Escort
Flotilla 1, Escort Flotilla 4, and the Royal Canadian Navy,
in formation, while aircraft from the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine
Corps, U.S. Air Force, JMSDF and Japan Air Self Defense
Force fly in formation during Keen Sword 21. The allied ship
and aircraft formation exercise occurred at an undisclosed
location in the Philippine Sea.
Keen Sword is an example of the
strength of U.S.-Japan Alliance, the foundation of peace and
security in the Indo-Pacific region for almost 60 years. The
relationships built and maintained during these events are
critical to our shared capability to respond to
contingencies at a moment’s notice.
