The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG 87) conducts a replenishment-at-sea with supply-class fast combat support ship USNS Arctic (T-AOE 8) in the Atlantic Ocean, Feb. 17, 2026. The George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group is at sea as an integrated warfighting team. Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX) is the Joint Force’s most complex integrated training event and prepares naval task forces for sustained high-end Joint and combined combat. Integrated naval training provides combatant commanders and America’s civilian leaders highly capable forces that deter adversaries, underpin American security and economic prosperity, and reassure Allies and partners.
