    The image shows an open body of water with a large orange conical marker buoy in the foreground and two water spout eruptions visible in the background. The eruptions appear to be caused by underwater detonations or explosive charges, producing tall white water columns rising from the surface. A small white spherical float is visible near the base of the orange buoy.

    The Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Chancellorsville fires 25mm rounds at an inflatable target during a weapons firing exercise with the Indian navy. Chancellorsville and three Indian Navy frigates, INS Godavari, INS Brahmaputra and INS Beas, fired 5 inch guns and 25mm guns during the exercise. Chancellorsville and the rest of the Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group are on a routine deployment in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility. Operating in the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean, the U.S. 7th Fleet is the largest of the forward-deployed U.S. fleets covering 52 million square miles, with approximately 50 ships, 120 aircraft and 20,000 Sailors and Marines assigned at any given time.
