Strike is only as strong as our ability to sustain. During Lightning Surge 2, @8thTSC & 2-11 FA validated a #HIMARS Rapid Infiltration from an MSV(L) proving we can project long‑range precision fires from the sea and stay #lethal, #mobile, and unpredictable across the @INDOPACOM.

During Lightning Surge 2, our @USArmy Soldiers are shaping the future of warfare. As 1 of 2 divisions chosen to test next-gen C2 systems, their feedback is vital. #TropicLightning #ArmyInnovation #NGC2 #Readiness 📸 Lt. Col. Hayden Howell & Sgt. Duke Edwards
