Here are some makeups done by the KBZ FX Inc team from RIMPAC 2026 . It’s been an honor getting to support the exercise Rim of the Pacific at Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, Hawaii.
RIMPAC brings together 29 nations, more than 30 surface ships, five submarines, 15 national land forces, over 206 aircraft, and 30,000 personnel throughout the Hawaiian Islands for the world’s largest international maritime exercise.
The exercise offers an unmatched opportunity to strengthen interoperability, enhance readiness, and build lasting partnerships among participating nations. These relationships are essential to maintaining freedom of navigation and promoting security across the world’s oceans.
RIMPAC 2026 marks the 30th iteration of the exercise, continuing a tradition of multinational cooperation that began in 1971..

Another successful day supporting combat training during RIMPAC.
Preparing for high-pressure situations takes dedication, teamwork, and realistic, hands-on training. Every scenario is an opportunity to build the confidence, decision-making, and lifesaving skills that matter when seconds count.
Proud to play a small part in helping prepare those who serve. 🇺🇸
