Australia, Philippines, and U.S. Conduct Multilateral Maritime Cooperative Activity

A U.S. Air Force B-1 Lancer, U.S. Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcons, and U.S. Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornets fly together with Philippine Air Force FA-50PH fighter jets during a multilateral Maritime Cooperative Activity (MCA) within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone, April 29, 2025. These aircraft integrated with the Philippine Navy Jose Rizal-class guided-missile destroyer BRP Antonio Luna (FF151), Philippine Navy AW-159 Wildcat helicopters and search and rescue assets, and the Royal Australian Navy Hobart-class guided-missile destroyer HMAS Sydney (DDG 42). This MCA built upon previous iterations and featured a series of integrated operations aimed at improving tactical coordination and combined operational capabilities.
