Another great underway! 🫡🙌🤩

Combat Systems Sea Trials 2 was a success, we completed our SPY calibration and AEGIS testing, a CSW shoot, and even had some “Saturday Night Snacks”! Rough seas won’t hold us back. CHUNG-HOON has officially exited the extended Depot Modernization Period and entered the Shakedown Phase with flying colors!
