U.S. Arctic and Bering Sea maritime patrols

Overview

The U.S. Coast Guard has concluded recent long-term deployments in the Arctic and Bering Sea focused on maritime security, sovereignty, and international cooperation.

During a 112-day mission, the Cutter Munro monitored Chinese-flagged research vessels, including the Xue Long and Xue Long 2, as they transited the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. The patrol involved enforcing fisheries laws and participating in Operation Frontier Sentinel and Operation Tundra Merlin, a strategic defense operation conducted alongside the Royal Canadian Navy to test command-and-control systems.

Following this, the Cutter Stratton completed a 103-day deployment. This mission also involved participation in Operation Frontier Sentinel and Operation Tundra Merlin, featuring a joint sail with the Canadian vessel HMCS Max Bernays in the Bering Strait to improve interoperability. Other activities included flight operations near Kotzebue, Alaska, and live-fire gunnery exercises.
