Specifically, since 2023, we have observed instances when US systems capable of launching INF-range missiles from land were transported to some [[European]] [[NATO]] countries for trial use in the course of exercises that clearly had [[anti-Russia]]n focus. In particular, it includes drills in [[Denmark]] involving a mobile (portable) Mk70 launcher.

With regard to the Asia-Pacific, we note that under the pretext of training activities, a [[Typhon mid-range missile]] system was brought to the [[Philippines]] in April 2024 and is still stationed on the archipelago. A system of the same type was employed this July in [[Australia]] during live-fire exercises as part of the Talisman Sabre 2025 multilateral drills. In the course of these drills, the US military personnel also deployed a [[Dark Eagle hypersonic intermediate-range system]], marking its first overseas appearance. It was openly declared that this deployment was undertaken "to project power", as well as underscored that such systems are rapidly redeployable.

Furthermore, during Talisman Sabre 2025, an Australian crew of the US-supplied [[HIMARS]] system launched a US-manufactured [[PrSM]] missile, which had been tested by the Pentagon back in 2021 to a range of more than 500 km and which consequently qualifies as a ground-launched INF-class missile. Prior to this, such missiles were launched by the [[US Army]] units using a future autonomous HIMARS-based platform during a live-fire event that took place last June on the territory of the [[Republic of Palau]].
