The Navy has launched maritime maneuver drills in waters off the country’s eastern, western and southern coasts in a bid to hone its operational capabilities against various maritime threats, the armed service said Wednesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Republic of Korea Navy Task Fleet Command is taking part in the drills, which kicked off Sunday for a six-day run, involving nearly a dozen warships and other aircraft, according to the Navy.<\/p>\n

Deployed assets include the Navy’s 8,200-ton Jeongjo the Great destroyer, the ROKS Yulgok Yi I destroyer, auxiliary ships, frigates, and patrol aircraft.<\/p>\n

During the drills, the Navy will train under simulated attack scenarios involving air defense combat, antisubmarine warfare and antisurface warfare, and conduct drills to detect and track ballistic missile launches.<\/p>\n

The command also took part in maritime drills in southern waters off Jeju Island early Wednesday, involving the Marado amphibious assault ship and other amphibious ships deployed as part of a joint training mission the previous day.<\/p>\n

The command is a core unit of the military’s three-pronged deterrence structure \u2014 the Kill Chain preemptive strike platform, the Korea Massive Punishment and Retaliation system, and the Korean Air and Missile Defense \u2014 fitted for maritime operations.<\/p>\n
