    USS Iwo Jima and the USS Fort Lauderdale conduct underway operations

    ATLANTIC OCEAN (June 29, 2025) The Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7), the flagship of the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group (ARG), sails during a strait transit exercise. The ARG and embarked 22nd are underway executing Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX), which tests the amphibious ready group’s ability to deliver combat power wherever the nation’s leadership requires, and is informed by U.S. Navy Fleet Commander requirements and assessment of ongoing operations around the globe. COMPTUEX is the Department of the Navy’s commitment to deliver highly capable, integrated naval forces to promote our nation’s prosperity and security, deter aggression and provide tailorable options to our nation’s leaders. COMPTUEX also allows the Navy to assess all aspects of prior readiness generation activities, which provides leaders information needed for process and resource allocation decisions for future warfighting development.
