F/A-18E Super Hornets attached to the “Kestrels” of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 137, fly in formation during an air power demonstration over the Gulf of America, June 11, 2026. U.S. military forces are deployed to the U.S. Southern Command area of responsibility in support of Department of War-directed operations, and the president's priorities to disrupt illicit drug trafficking, deter malign actors and protect the homeland through continuous presence. Nimitz-class aircraft carriers are the pinnacle of mobile naval air power projection and forward operational presence. No other weapons system possesses the responsiveness, endurance, multi-dimensional might, inherent battlespace awareness, and command and control capabilities of a carrier strike group and its embarked air wing.
