    A naval replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation is underway at sunset, with crew members on the deck of one vessel managing lines connected to a large gray auxiliary/replenishment ship flying what appears to be a Chilean flag. A helicopter is visible in the background near the horizon. The warm golden light of the setting sun creates strong silhouetting of personnel and equipment.

    EASTERN PACIFIC OCEAN (Nov. 7, 2020) – Sailors aboard the Independence-class littoral combat ship USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS 10), handle a line during a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) with the Chilean Navy replenishment oiler CNS Almirante Montt (AO-52) November 7, 2020. Both Gabrielle Giffords and CNS Almirante Montt are supporting UNITAS LXI, off the coast of Manta, Ecuador, the world’s longest running multi-national maritime exercise. UNITAS is the world's longest-running, annual exercise and brings together multinational forces from nine countries to include Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay, and the United States. The exercise focuses in strengthening the existing regional partnerships and encourages establishing new relationships through the exchange of maritime mission-focused knowledge and expertise during multinational training operations.

    An aerial photograph of a U.S. Coast Guard cutter underway on open ocean, with a visible plume of white smoke or mist emanating from the starboard side of the vessel. The ship appears to be conducting some form of operational activity, possibly a weapons test, fire suppression system discharge, or equipment exercise. The vessel is traveling at moderate speed as indicated by the wake visible at the stern.
    A gray naval patrol or corvette-class warship bearing hull number '84' is underway at speed on open blue ocean waters. The vessel appears to be conducting a weapons firing exercise, as evidenced by visible gun smoke near the bow area. The image is taken from an elevated aerial perspective under hazy but clear conditions.
    A naval formation of multiple warships and patrol vessels sailing in column formation across open ocean under overcast skies. The nearest identifiable vessel appears to be named 'CABO ODGER' and flies what appears to be a Chilean flag, suggesting this may be a Chilean Navy exercise or transit. The photograph is taken from the bow of a modern, angular-hulled vessel in the foreground.
    A large naval formation of multiple military vessels is underway at sea under overcast, hazy conditions. The formation includes at least one U.S. Coast Guard cutter on the right flank and a gray naval patrol/offshore vessel labeled 'CABO ODGER' in the foreground center, with numerous smaller warships extending into the background. This appears to be a multinational naval exercise or fleet review.

    The image is taken from the bridge of a naval or coast guard vessel, showing a crew member using binoculars or a radio while observing another ship in the distance. The exterior vessel appears to be a gray military or auxiliary ship flying a red-and-white flag, possibly a replenishment or support vessel. The interior bridge is cluttered with navigation equipment, cables, and personal items.
    Two U.S. Navy sailors aboard USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS-10) are conducting navigation operations on the ship's bridge wing at sunset. One sailor is looking through a bearing circle or alidade mounted on a pelorus, while a senior officer stands behind observing. A second vessel is visible on the horizon in the background.
    Three naval personnel are observed from the deck of a warship watching two other vessels at sea during what appears to be dusk or dawn. The scene suggests a multinational naval exercise or formation sailing, with one person wearing communication headsets and another using binoculars. The larger vessel in the background displays a flag that appears to be the Cross of St. George or similar ensign.
    Three naval personnel are observed from the deck of a warship watching two other vessels at sea during what appears to be a naval exercise or formation. One officer wearing a face mask and cap with gold insignia is pointing toward the ships in the distance. A helicopter is faintly visible in the sky near the larger vessel.
    Naval personnel in red life vests and colored hard hats are gathered on a ship's deck during a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) or mooring operation at sunset. A small puff of smoke or vapor is visible near the group, suggesting a line-throwing gun or similar equipment has just been fired. Multiple naval vessels with cranes and rigging equipment are visible in the background.
    A naval replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation is underway at sunset, with crew members on the deck of one vessel managing lines connected to a large gray auxiliary/replenishment ship flying what appears to be a Chilean flag. A helicopter is visible in the background near the horizon. The warm golden light of the setting sun creates strong silhouetting of personnel and equipment.
    A large naval formation of approximately 10-12 warships is sailing in open ocean under overcast, grey skies. The vessels appear to be operating in a loose formation spread across the horizon, suggesting a multinational naval exercise or fleet transit. At least one larger vessel, possibly an amphibious assault ship or aircraft carrier, is visible among smaller escort vessels such as frigates or destroyers.
    An aerial photograph shows two U.S. Navy vessels underway in open ocean under overcast skies. The foreground vessel appears to be a Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) of the Independence-class trimaran design, while the vessel ahead appears to be a High-Speed Vessel (HSV) or Expeditionary Fast Transport (EPF) catamaran. Both ships are leaving visible wakes as they travel in the same general direction.
    An aerial photograph showing a multi-vessel naval formation underway at sea under overcast skies. The formation includes at least six vessels of varying types, including what appear to be US Navy Littoral Combat Ships, a high-speed transport vessel, a Coast Guard cutter, and additional warships in the background. The ships are producing visible wakes, indicating they are moving at speed in formation.
    An aerial photograph shows three naval/coast guard vessels sailing in formation on open ocean waters. The foreground features a large US Navy Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) with a visible wake, followed by a white US Coast Guard cutter in the middle distance, and a gray naval vessel (likely a foreign navy frigate or corvette) in the background. The ships appear to be conducting a joint maritime exercise or patrol operation.
