Service members from the Republic of Korea Air Force line up to load onto a ROKAF C-130J Super Hercules cargo jet during Ulchi Freedom Shield 25 exercise at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea, Aug. 25, 2025. The exercise implemented combined live-fire exercises, and Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction operations to include counter Theatre Ballistic Missile and counter-nuclear operations focused on deterrence. U.S. and Republic of Korea service members transitioned to an alternate location utilizing ROK Air Force C-130 aircraft, testing the combined force’s ability to maneuver personnel and equipment quickly. The shift reinforced both nations’ ability to project and sustain combat power from different locations across the region, validating airlift coordination between the U.S. and ROK air forces.
