Pre-Commissioning Unit John F. Kennedy (CVN 79) conducts a countermeasure wash-down (CMWD) testing evolution during Builder’s Trials, Feb. 3, 2026. CMWD is used as a defense against chemical, biological or radiological attacks by covering the flight deck in an aqueous film forming foam (AFFF). Builder’s Trials provide an opportunity to test ship systems and components at sea for the first time, and make required adjustments prior to additional underway testing.
