    CARTAGENA, Colombia (July 15, 2023) East-coast based U.S. Naval Special Warfare Operators (SEALs) and Colombian special operations personnel drive a combat rubber raiding craft alongside the Los Angeles-class fast-attack submarine USS Pasadena (SSN 752) during UNITAS 2023. Hosted this year by Colombia, UNITAS is the world’s longest-running maritime exercise bringing together multinational forces from 20 partner nations, training in joint maritime operations that enhance tactical proficiency and increase interoperability. Naval Special Warfare Group 2 produces, trains, supports, and deploys the world’s premier maritime special operations commandos to conduct full-spectrum operations and integrated deterrence that support national objectives.

    A group of armed military personnel are positioned on what appears to be a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) on open water. The personnel are wearing two distinct camouflage patterns, suggesting a joint or multinational military operation or exercise. They are fully equipped with tactical gear, helmets, weapons, and communication devices.
    Two heavily equipped military personnel are observed from behind and side profile near a body of water, likely during a joint military operation or exercise. The soldier in the foreground displays a US flag patch on a tan/MultiCam helmet and wears tactical communications headgear. A second soldier in green digital camouflage with a face covering stands to the left, suggesting a multinational or joint forces context.
    A twilight maritime scene showing two small inflatable military-style rubber boats (RHIBs) with silhouetted personnel in the foreground, and a naval warship anchored in the middle distance. A coastal city skyline with a prominent high-rise tower is visible in the background against a vivid pink and purple sunset sky. The scene suggests a military or naval operation near an urban coastal area.
    Two rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) carrying silhouetted figures in tactical gear are operating on open water during twilight or dusk. The sky displays vivid pink and purple hues consistent with sunset or sunrise conditions. In the background, a sailboat (catamaran) and a motorized vessel are visible on the horizon.
    A heavily silhouetted figure wearing a tactical helmet with what appears to be night-vision goggle mounts is photographed at night near a waterfront. City buildings with illuminated windows are visible in the background across the water, with light reflections on the water's surface. The image is intentionally dark, with the subject rendered almost entirely as a silhouette.
    A night-vision or infrared captured image showing four individuals in a small inflatable rubber boat on open water at night. All personnel are wearing helmets and night-vision goggles, suggesting a military or special operations context. The image appears to be taken from an elevated position, possibly from a ship or structure visible at the upper right.
    A night-vision or infrared captured image showing multiple individuals in tactical gear and gas masks operating near or on a small inflatable watercraft in open water. The personnel appear to be conducting a maritime operation, possibly a military or law enforcement exercise or mission. The image is grayscale and taken under low-light conditions.

    A thermal or night-vision captured image showing three armed personnel in tactical gear operating in a low-light outdoor environment. The subjects are equipped with helmets, night-vision devices, and appear to be carrying assault-style rifles. The image exhibits characteristic thermal imaging contrast with bright highlights on exposed skin and equipment.
    A large military submarine is shown surfaced on open water, silhouetted against an overcast sky with a partially obscured sun on the horizon. A small inflatable rigid-hull boat with personnel aboard is visible in the foreground, likely serving as an escort or security vessel. In the background, a port or harbor with multiple large cranes is visible along the shoreline.
    A large military submarine is underway on the surface of a body of water under an overcast sky with a partially visible sun on the horizon.
