US deployment of 12 fighter jets to the Philippines the largest ever


Washington is this week deploying a dozen F/A-18 fighters to the Philippines, the first time it has sent so many of the aircraft there, to take part in annual military drills with a close security ally amid rising tension in the Asia-Pacific region.
The presence of the warplanes is not connected to tensions on the Korean Peninsula, a Philippine army spokesman said.
