CORAL SEA (July 24, 2023) From front to rear, the Canadian Halifax-class frigate, HMCS Montreal (FFGHM 336), the amphibious dock transport ship, USS Green Bay (LPD 20), the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) helicopter destroyer, JS Izumo (DDH 183), and JMSDF tank landing ship, JS Shimokita (LST 4002), steam in formation behind the forward-deployed amphibious assault carrier, USS America (LHA 6), during an anti-submarine warfare exercise, as part of Exercise Talisman Sabre, while underway in the Coral Sea, July 24. America, lead ship of the America Amphibious Ready Group, is operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations. U.S. 7th Fleet is the U.S. Navy’s largest forward-deployed numbered fleet, and routinely interacts and operates with allies and partners in preserving a free and open Indo-Pacific region. Talisman Sabre is the largest bilateral military exercise between Australia and the United States, advancing a free and open Indo-Pacific by strengthening relationships and interoperability among key allies and enhancing our collective capabilities to respond to a wide array of potential security concerns.
