240703-N-OE145-1156 PACIFIC OCEAN (July, 3 2024) Two EA-18G Growlers, attached to the Shadowhawks of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 141, fly in formation near the U.S. Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), during air combat-skills practice in the Pacific Ocean, July, 3. The primary role of EA-18G Growlers is to disrupt the ability to communicate between units in combat through the use of electronic warfare. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the United States, and supports alliances, partnerships and collective maritime interests in the Indo-Pacific region.
