    Republic of Korea Navy Daegu-class frigate Daejeon (FFG 823) sails in formation during Exercise Rim of the Pacific 2026 in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Hawaii on July 22, 2026. Thirty nations, 30 ships, five submarines, 15 national land forces, more than 190 aircraft and more than 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. RIMPAC 2026 is the 30th exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist First Class Ryan A. LeCompte)

The ship features a stealth-oriented superstructure design with various radar and sensor systems mounted on its mast.
    A naval formation of multiple warships is underway across open ocean under overcast skies. The foreground features a prominent Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer flying a US flag, accompanied by approximately seven to eight additional warships spread across the formation. This appears to be a multinational naval exercise or transit operation.
    The image shows two U.S. Navy vessels operating together in open blue ocean waters. In the foreground is an Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer flying the American flag, while a Nimitz or Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier is visible in the background at distance. The vessels appear to be conducting routine underway operations, likely as part of a carrier strike group.
