A Bell AH-1 Super Cobra with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 (Reinforced) engages targets and provides close air support to joint terminal air controllers and forward air controllers during a tactical air control party at range W174, Okinawa, Japan, July 9, 2020. Forward air controllers and joint terminal air controllers maintain currency in preparation for the upcoming MEU exercises by coordinating close air support. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region. The 31st MEU has implemented strict health protection measures and will continue to conduct mission essential training in support of regional security and stability.
