    An aerial photograph shows a large submarine traveling on the surface of deep blue ocean waters. The submarine appears to be a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) based on its considerable length and hull design, with personnel visible on its deck. A smaller escort vessel is visible in the background, and a coastline with vegetation is faintly visible on the horizon.

    An aerial photograph of a large military submarine traveling on the surface of open ocean water. The submarine is creating a prominent white wake on both sides as it moves forward at speed. The image is taken from a high angle, likely from an aircraft, showing the full length of the vessel.
    An aerial photograph shows two small motorized watercraft traveling in close formation across deep blue open water. Both vessels are moving at speed, producing visible white wake trails behind them. The image is taken from a significant altitude, rendering the boats small relative to the expansive ocean surface.

The submarine appears to be a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) based on its considerable length and hull design, with personnel visible on its deck. A smaller escort vessel is visible in the background, and a coastline with vegetation is faintly visible on the horizon.
    A military inflatable rubber raiding craft (CRRC) carrying several personnel in camouflage uniforms is speeding across choppy open water toward a large surfaced submarine. The submarine, which appears to be a US Navy ballistic missile or guided missile submarine, has numerous crew members visible on its deck. A coastline with buildings and a communications tower is visible in the background.
    The image shows personnel standing on top of a surfaced submarine at sea. A rope or Jacob's ladder is visible on the side of the vessel, with individuals appearing to climb or descend near the waterline. The scene appears to depict a personnel transfer or boarding operation.
    A military exercise is underway over open coastal waters, featuring a tiltrotor aircraft (consistent with a V-22 Osprey) flying overhead, a surfaced submarine in the background, and two small military watercraft (likely combat rubber raiding craft or rigid inflatable boats) moving at speed on the water surface. The scene suggests a coordinated amphibious or special operations exercise. A green, hilly coastline with what appears to be a developed area is visible in the background.
