    Two large US Navy aircraft carriers are sailing in formation across open blue ocean waters under a partly cloudy sky. Both vessels are underway and appear to be operating in close proximity, likely during a dual carrier strike group exercise or transit. American flags are visible on at least one of the carriers.

    The Ford-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) and the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) transit the Atlantic Ocean June 4, 2020, marking the first time a Ford-class and a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier operated together underway. Ford is underway conducting integrated air wing operations, and the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group remains at sea in the Atlantic as a certified carrier strike group force ready for tasking in order to protect the crew from the risks posed by COVID-19, following their successful deployment to the U.S. 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operation.
