The Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) has successfully conducted a live-firing of an anti-missile missile in the South China Sea.

This is part of the 18th annual Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training (CARAT) exercise which Singapore is conducting with the United States.

The Ministry of Defence said the Barak anti-missile missile was fired by the upgraded RSN missile corvette RSS Victory against an air drone target simulating an attacking profile. The target was successfully destroyed.

The exercise will end on July 27.
