From June 27 to July 7, the harbour phase of the exercise will feature multiple symposiums, exercise planning discussions, sports competitions, and reciprocal deck visits. The sea phase of RIMPAC-24 is divided into three sub-phases, during which ships will engage in basic and advanced-level integration exercises.
Spanning over six weeks, RIMPAC-24 aims to enhance interoperability and build trust among the navies of participating friendly foreign countries. Approximately 29 countries are taking part in this multi-dimensional exercise, led by the US Navy.
