190526-N-QD718-0004 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 martime forces to operate as an integrated, capable, and potent allied force ready to respond to a complex martime environment in the Indo-Pacific region.
