U.S. Marines with Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron (VMGR) 352, Marine Aircraft Group 11, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, offload ordnance from a KC-130J Super Hercules, during Marine Aviation Support Activity (MASA) 23, at Subic Bay International Airport, Manila, Philippines, July 8, 2023. This was the first time the U.S. Marine Corps has transported fixed-wing ordnance, including bombs and missiles, to Subic Bay International Airport; the ordnance was received, ground transported, and guarded by Filipino and U.S. Marines. MASA is a bilateral exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the U.S. Marine Corps, aimed at enhancing interoperability and coordination focused on aviation-related capabilities. During MASA 23, Filipino and U.S. Marines conduct approximately twenty different training evolutions, including live-fire, air assaults, and subject matter expert exchanges across aviation, ground, and logistics capabilities.
