Скачать или смотреть USS Tripoli (LHA 7) Massive Replenishment-at-Sea in the South China Sea

The America-class amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli (LHA 7) conducts a high-stakes replenishment-at-sea (RAS) with the Kaiser-class underway replenishment oiler USNS Tippecanoe (T-AO 199).

Filmed in the South China Sea on Dec. 6, 2025, this operation demonstrates the incredible logistics required to keep the Tripoli Expeditionary Strike Group mission-ready. The U.S. 7th Fleet, the Navy’s largest forward-deployed numbered fleet, routinely conducts these operations to preserve a free and open Indo-Pacific region.

Witness the precision required to pull two massive vessels alongside each other at high speed to transfer fuel and supplies.
