U.S. and Philippines launch joint task force to speed up response to China in South China Sea.
The U.S. and Philippines launched Task Force-Philippines, a joint military unit announced on October 31 at the ASEAN defense summit, to boost rapid response to Chinese activities in the South China Sea.
Comprising about 60 personnel and led by a one-star officer, the task force operates across the Philippines without new combat forces, offensive missions, or permanent bases.
It aims to enable near real-time intelligence sharing and coordination, cutting reliance on slow communications between Manila and Hawaii.
The move strengthens existing defense ties, including the 2024 intelligence pact and annual Balikatan exercises, and enhances deterrence amid rising tensions.
