    A naval warship, consistent with a U.S. Navy Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer, is photographed at sea firing a missile. A bright orange flame and white smoke plume are visible amidships, indicating an active missile launch. The vessel is operating in open ocean under a partly cloudy sky.

    190526-N-QD718-0015 PHILIPPINE SEA (May 26, 2019) - The Arleigh-Burke-class guided missile destroyer Curtis Wilbur (DDG 54) launches a harpoon surface-to-surface missile alongside Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Antietam (CG 54) as part of the HARPOONEX during Pacific Vanguard (PACVAN). PACVAN is the first of its kind quadrilateral exercise between Australia, Japan, Republic of Korea, and U.S. Naval forces. Focused on improving the capabilities of participating countries to respond together to crisis and contingencies in the region, PACVAN prepares the participating maritime forces to operate as an integrated, capable, and potent allied force ready to respond to a complex maritime environment in the Indo-Pacific region.
