Philippine Coast Guard cutter BRP Melchora Aquino (MRRV-9702) launches an embarked small boat to retrieve a search and rescue dummy after successfully locating it during the search and rescue exercise as part of the Maritime Cooperative Activity (MCA) in the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone, May 29, 2026. The U.S Navy routinely operates with the Armed Forces of the Philippines and partners and allies through MCAs to continually develop, exercise and enhance multi-domain tactical interoperability to uphold peace and security in the region. Midgett is forward-deployed and assigned to Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 15, the Navy’s largest DESRON and U.S. 7th Fleet’s principal surface force. U.S. 7th Fleet, the Navy’s largest forward-deployed numbered fleet, routinely interacts and operates with allies and partners in preserving a free and open Indo-Pacific.
