    The image depicts a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation between two naval vessels underway on open ocean. A fuel transfer hose and rigging lines are visible in the foreground, connecting or preparing to connect the two ships. Personnel can be seen on the deck of the second vessel in the background.

    USS America (LHA 6)   

    PACIFIC OCEAN (May 22, 2021) The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force replenishment ship JS Hamana (AOE-424), back, delivers its fueling probe to the forward-deployed amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6) during a replenishment-at-sea. America, lead ship of the America Amphibious Ready Group, is operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility to enhance interoperability with allies and partners and serve as a ready response force to defend peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region.

    The image depicts a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation between two naval vessels underway on open ocean. A fuel transfer hose and rigging lines are visible in the foreground, connecting or preparing to connect the two ships. Personnel can be seen on the deck of the second vessel in the background.
    Two gray military naval vessels are underway together at sea, appearing to conduct a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) or close-formation sailing operation. The larger vessel is an amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck, while a smaller auxiliary or support vessel is positioned alongside to its port side. The sky is overcast and hazy, and the sea state appears calm to moderate.
    Two military naval vessels are underway at sea in what appears to be a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) or close formation operation. The larger vessel on the left is an amphibious assault ship (likely a US Navy Wasp-class or America-class LHA/LHD) with a flat flight deck, while the smaller vessel on the right appears to be a replenishment or auxiliary ship. Both ships are sailing in close parallel formation with visible wake patterns.
    The image shows two U.S. Navy vessels conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea. The larger vessel on the right is an amphibious assault ship bearing the hull number '6', consistent with a Wasp-class LHD, while the smaller vessel on the left appears to be a combat logistics force (replenishment) ship. Both ships are sailing in close parallel formation in open ocean under overcast skies.
    Two naval vessels are conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea, connected by transfer lines while both ships maintain forward movement. The larger vessel on the left appears to be an amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck, while the smaller vessel on the right appears to be a replenishment or auxiliary ship. Both ships are generating significant wake, indicating they are traveling at speed during the transfer operation.
    The image shows a large US Navy amphibious assault ship underway at sea, accompanied by a smaller auxiliary or support vessel on its port side. The larger vessel features a flat flight deck characteristic of amphibious assault ships, with a prominent island superstructure and visible exhaust smoke from its stack. The two ships appear to be conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) or close-formation sailing operation in open ocean conditions.
    Two gray military naval vessels are conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea, connected by transfer lines while both ships are underway. The larger vessel on the right appears to be an amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck, while the smaller vessel on the left appears to be a replenishment or auxiliary ship. A third vessel, likely a commercial container ship, is visible on the horizon in the background.
    An aerial photograph showing two naval vessels conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea. A large amphibious assault ship bearing the hull number '9' is connected via transfer lines to a smaller replenishment vessel on its port side. Both ships are underway and maintaining parallel courses during the operation.
    An aerial photograph shows two U.S. Navy gray-painted vessels underway at sea, appearing to conduct an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation. The larger vessel is an amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck marked with helicopter landing zones, while a smaller auxiliary or replenishment ship is positioned alongside to its port side. Both ships are leaving visible white wakes in the deep blue ocean water.
    Two naval vessels are conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea, with transfer lines visibly connecting the ships. The larger vessel on the right appears to be a US Navy amphibious assault ship with a flat flight deck, while the smaller vessel on the left appears to be a replenishment or auxiliary ship. Both ships are traveling in parallel at close proximity in overcast, hazy conditions.
    Two naval vessels are conducting an underway replenishment (UNREP) operation at sea, with a supply ship numbered '424' alongside a larger warship. Lines and hoses are visibly connected or being managed between the two ships as they sail in parallel. Crew members in green uniforms are visible on the deck of the supply vessel.
    A gray naval replenishment or auxiliary vessel is underway at sea, emitting dark exhaust smoke from its funnel. A military helicopter, consistent with an SH-60 Seahawk type, is visible in the upper right background. The image appears to be taken from the deck of another vessel, with equipment and hoses visible in the foreground, suggesting a replenishment-at-sea (RAS) operation.
    A gray naval warship bearing hull number '424' is underway at sea, engaged in an underway replenishment (UNREP) or connected replenishment operation. A line/rope is visibly stretched between this vessel and another ship (out of frame), with colored distance markers attached. Crew members in green uniforms and white helmets are visible on the bow deck managing equipment.
