Members of the Philippine Coast Guard participated in practical rappelling and fast rope exercises alongside participating nations enhancing vertical insertion and extraction techniques, improving confidence and proficiency in helicopter-borne operations, and strengthening interoperability during RIMPAC 2026. Thirty nations, over 30 surface ships, five submarines, 15 national land forces, more than 206 aircraft and 30,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC in and around the Hawaiian Islands, June 24 to July 31. The world's largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity while fostering and sustaining cooperative relationships among participants critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans.
