See the ship-killing missile that US Marines deployed to a hot spot near Taiwan

US Marines stationed anti-ship missile launchers near Taiwan to deter Chinese aggression.
It was the first time the NMESIS, a ground-based missile system, was deployed to the Philippines.
China said it opposed US allies using Taiwan as an "excuse" to boost its military presence.
The US Marines deployed new ship-killing missile launchers at a strategic chokepoint south of Taiwan to deter growing Chinese aggression in the Pacific.

The Navy-Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System (NMESIS) made its inaugural debut in the Philippines during Exercise Balikatan, which means "shoulder-to-shoulder" in Tagalog.
