South Korea and the United States have launched a joint Buddy Squadron fighter jet exercise as part of the broader annual military drills Freedom Shield on Monday to boost combat readiness amid allegedly rising threats from North Korea, the Yonhap news agency reported, citing the South Korean air force.
The Buddy Squadron exercise kicked off at Osan Air Base in the city of Pyeongtaek-si, south of the South Korean capital, the newspaper reported, adding that the fighter jet drill would last five days.
US-made F-16s and South Korean F-15Ks will be part of a total of 20 fighter jets in the first air drill of 2024 to practice defensive actions, the report said.
