May 23, 2026
U.S. Marines conducted high-mobility live-fire rocket drills at the foothills of Mount Fuji this week, showcasing advanced "shoot-and-scoot" tactics aimed at bolstering Pacific deterrence against potential Chinese aggression. Utilizing the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), the 3rd Battalion demonstrated rapid-deployment and precision-strike capabilities capable of hitting targets up to 300 kilometers away with devastating accuracy. The strategic exercise underscores Washington’s shifting tactical doctrine in the Indo-Pacific, focusing on highly mobile, easily concealed weapon systems to secure critical waterways like the Taiwan and Luzon Straits alongside regional allies. #himars #usmarines #usmilitary #chinatension #taiwanstrait #mountfuji #militarydrills #pacificdeterrence #shootandscoot #breakingnews In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews
