Air Marshal Anil Chopra

The U.S. is working closely with regional allies South Korea and Japan to boost military capabilities. More importantly, pro-US President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. led the Philippine government in working closely with the U.S. to create many new military bases.

U.S. Indo-Pacific Command

The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) is the oldest and largest unified combatant command of the U.S. armed forces and is responsible for the entire Indo-Pacific region.

The 375,000 service personnel are expected to secure more than 260 million sq. km, or roughly 52 percent of the Earth’s surface, stretching from the West Coast of the United States to the East Coast maritime borderline waters of India and from the Arctic to the Antarctic.
