    SOUTH CHINA SEA (April 25, 2025) An MH-60R from Helicopter Sea Combat (HSC) Squadron 35, embarked aboard the Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Omaha (LCS 12), flies overhead as Royal Australian Navy (RAN) Hobart-class destroyer HMAS Sydney (DDG 42) steams behind Omaha in the South China Sea during a joint sail, April 25, 2025. Omaha, part of Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 7, is on a rotational deployment to the U.S. 7th Fleet. As the U.S. Navy’s destroyer squadron forward-deployed in Southeast Asia, DESRON 7 serves as the primary tactical and operational commander of littoral combat ships rotationally deployed to the operational area, Expeditionary Strike Group 7’s Sea Combat Commander, and builds partnerships through training exercises and military-to-military engagements.
