An F/A-18 Super Hornet, attached to Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 27, launches off the flight deck of Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) while operating in the Indian Ocean, Aug. 18, 2026. George Washington, operating in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations, is the U.S. Navy’s premier forward-deployed aircraft carrier, a long-standing symbol of the United States’ commitment to maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific, while operating alongside allies and partners across the U.S. Navy’s largest numbered fleet.
