PHILIPPINE SEA (Feb. 7, 2022) Ships of the America and Essex Amphibious Ready Groups, and Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group, sail in formation with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force during exercise Noble Fusion. Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72), front left, America-class amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), back left, and Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer USS Dewey (DDG 105) sail in formation in support of Noble Fusion, Feb. 7, 2022. Noble Fusion highlights that Navy and Marine Corps forward-deployed stand-in naval expeditionary forces can rapidly aggregate Marine Expeditionary Unit/Amphibious Ready Group teams at sea, along with a carrier strike group, as well as other joint force elements and allies, in order to conduct lethal sea-denial training, seize key maritime terrain, guarantee freedom of movement, and create advantage for US, partner and allied forces. Naval Expeditionary forces conduct training throughout the year, in the Indo-Pacific, to maintain readiness. ( Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Wesley Richardson)
