An AC-130J Ghostrider crew from the 919th Special Operations Wing complete a sink exercise mission during the Rim of the Pacific Exercise (RIMPAC) 2026, July 11, 2026.
The Ghostrider fired on a decommissioned U.S. Navy ship designated to be sunk during joint live-fire exercises in support of RIMPAC 2026. Exercises like these are critical to deterring conflict, validating capabilities and refining the targeting and skills needed to remain ready for any mission.
