    USS America (LHA 6)   

    Marine Maj. Sam Clark, assigned to the "Argonauts" of Marine Operational Test and Evaluation Squadron (VMX) 22, explains the features and capabilities of a tiltrotor MV-22 Osprey aircraft to distinguished visitors from Trinidad and Tobago during a tour of the future amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6). America is currently traveling through the U.S. Southern Command and U.S. 4th Fleet area of responsibility on its maiden transit, "America visits the Americas." America is the first ship of its class, replacing the Tarawa-class of amphibious assault ships. As the next generation "big-deck" amphibious assault ship, America is optimized for aviation, capable of supporting current and future aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey and F-35B Joint Strike Fighter. The ship is scheduled to be ceremoniously commissioned Oct. 11 in San Francisco. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class John Scorza/Released)
