The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Fitzgerald (DDG 62) is under way in the Pacific Ocean following a live-fire sink exercise as part of exercise Valiant Shield 2012 (VS12). The live-fire event sank the former amphibious transport dock ship USS Coronado (LPD/AGF 11) providing Fitzgerald’s crew with the opportunity to gain proficiency in tactics, targeting and firing against a surface target, enhancing combat readiness of deployed units.
