Known as Ssang Yong, the defensive combined exercise was reportedly held in Pohang, South Korea on 29th March.

The exercise aimed to strengthen interoperability between the US Marine air-ground task force and the ROK Marine task force, while improving the amphibious capabilities of both nations' Navy and Marine Corps.

Ssang Yong plays a crucial role in bolstering the ROK's combined defence of the Korean peninsula and increasing the combat readiness of the ROK-US Alliance.

By fostering cooperation and coordination, the exercise helps to ensure a unified and effective response to potential security challenges in the region.
