1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000


2
00:00:01,630 --> 00:00:15,060
a 

3
00:00:15,070 --> 00:00:18,160
sense of urgency that , that you can 

4
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,910
feel between the Marine Corps and the 

5
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,540
Japanese ground self defense force 

6
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,860
to not be afraid to innovate mm hmm . 

7
00:00:31,900 --> 00:00:33,820
To increase our procedures for 

8
00:00:33,820 --> 00:00:34,720
coordination 

9
00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:39,660
to increase our lethality . 

10
00:00:45,150 --> 00:00:47,150
Yeah . Mhm 

11
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,990
mm hmm . Rd 21 was a dynamic 

12
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:55,990
exercises unlike anything that I've 

13
00:00:55,990 --> 00:00:58,320
ever done out with three MF or anywhere 

14
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,320
else for that matter . And the fact 

15
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,280
that the scale , scope , complexity and 

16
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,780
the willingness to experiment , the 

17
00:01:05,790 --> 00:01:07,850
willingness to make changes . The 

18
00:01:07,860 --> 00:01:10,460
willingness to test different concepts 

19
00:01:10,460 --> 00:01:12,920
was there on both sides . We're 

20
00:01:12,930 --> 00:01:15,700
increasing our capabilities at a rapid 

21
00:01:15,710 --> 00:01:19,260
pace . In terms 

22
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,480
During the initial stage of 

23
00:01:23,490 --> 00:01:25,720
Resolute Dragon 21 , the focus was 

24
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,510
conducting a mixed mode dispersal to 

25
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,650
key maritime terrain . 

26
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,890
We used the combination of aviation 

27
00:01:35,890 --> 00:01:38,420
platforms , surface level lift 

28
00:01:38,430 --> 00:01:41,570
platforms . So that was a joint effort 

29
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:44,360
in order to build up combat power at R 

30
00:01:44,370 --> 00:01:46,970
E A . B . S spread throughout mainland 

31
00:01:46,970 --> 00:01:47,960
Japan . 

32
00:01:54,540 --> 00:01:56,660
We want to bring every domain to the 

33
00:01:56,660 --> 00:01:58,882
fight . We don't want to leave anything 

34
00:01:58,882 --> 00:02:02,420
off the table . It's important that we 

35
00:02:02,420 --> 00:02:04,642
capitalize on all the strengths and all 

36
00:02:04,642 --> 00:02:06,753
the capabilities that the joint force 

37
00:02:06,753 --> 00:02:09,270
provides in order to enable to stand in 

38
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:11,720
force to be able to conduct sea control 

39
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,150
and sea denial actions . 

40
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,290
Our next phase was to link up with the 

41
00:02:19,290 --> 00:02:21,890
Japanese conduct a series of bilateral 

42
00:02:21,890 --> 00:02:24,020
air assaults on two key maritime 

43
00:02:24,020 --> 00:02:26,810
terrain and then to integrate joint 

44
00:02:26,810 --> 00:02:28,480
force capability in Japanese 

45
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,424
capabilities that would affect sea 

46
00:02:30,424 --> 00:02:31,813
control and sea denial . 

47
00:02:39,940 --> 00:02:42,162
One of the most critical aspects of R . 

48
00:02:42,162 --> 00:02:46,100
D . 21 was our ability to pair Japan's 

49
00:02:46,100 --> 00:02:48,800
surface to ship missile regiment with 

50
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,040
naval capabilities that could sense 

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,200
targets . We share that information 

52
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,144
with the Japanese who were able to 

53
00:02:55,144 --> 00:02:58,580
prosecute those targets fire . 

54
00:02:59,940 --> 00:03:02,720
You can't look at the United States 

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,370
Joint Force or the Japanese 

56
00:03:04,380 --> 00:03:08,110
individually . You have to 

57
00:03:08,110 --> 00:03:10,210
pull all those capabilities together 

58
00:03:10,730 --> 00:03:14,730
and look at it from a total and 

59
00:03:14,730 --> 00:03:16,397
there's some very interesting 

60
00:03:16,397 --> 00:03:18,563
combinations of capability that you're 

61
00:03:18,563 --> 00:03:20,563
going to now have to contend with . 

62
00:03:20,563 --> 00:03:22,850
Once these are fused together , our 

63
00:03:22,850 --> 00:03:25,300
ability to conduct multi domain 

64
00:03:25,310 --> 00:03:27,570
operations with our partner here in 

65
00:03:27,570 --> 00:03:31,150
Japan . It is certainly a strength . 

66
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:35,150
That combination increases the cost of 

67
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,760
conflict to an unacceptable level and 

68
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,871
that's exactly where we want it to be 

69
00:03:44,740 --> 00:03:44,950
okay .
