The U.S. Army has sent its Typhon system overseas for the first time, to take part in an exercise in the Philippines.

A press release stated, “In a historic first, the 1st Multi-Domain Task Force successfully deployed the Mid-Range Capability (MRC) missile system to Northern Luzon, Philippines, on April 11, 2024, as part of Exercise Salaknib 24. This landmark deployment marks a significant milestone for the new capability while enhancing interoperability, readiness, and defense capabilities in coordination with the Armed Forces of the Philippines.”

The system was transported by a C-17 Globemaster III.

Viewers may note that US Army Pacific commander Gen. Charles Flynn told reporters last year the new launcher would be bound for the Indo-Pacific region, but didn’t disclose where or if the US had struck a deal with a foreign government to rest it on its soil.
