Ford<\/em> and her escorts have arrived in the Eastern Mediterrranean, sending a message of support for Israel and a warning to other regional players like Iran and Hezbollah. In addition, the U.S. is considering the possibility of sending a second aircraft carrier to join her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In just two days, <em>Ford <\/em>steamed from Italy to Israel, accompanied by the cruiser USS <em>Normandy <\/em>and the destroyers USS <em>Thomas Hudner, <\/em>USS <em>Ramage<\/em>, USS <em>Carney <\/em>and USS <em>Roosevelt<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;The arrival of these highly capable forces to the region is a strong signal of deterrence should any actor hostile to Israel consider trying to take advantage of this situation,&quot; said General Michael &quot;Erik&quot; Kurilla, commander, U.S. Central Command.<\/p>\n<p>USS <em>Ford <\/em>is on her first full operational deployment, and it is a major milestone: it caps five years of repairs to the new ship&#039;s advanced warfighting systems, including her weapons elevators, catapults, arresting gear and radar. These systems have not been tested yet in combat, and the Defense Department&#039;s testing watchdog warned in January that the reliability of <em>Ford&#039;s <\/em>advanced catapults, arresting gear, and jet blast deflectors still had an &quot;<a href=\"https:\/\/maritime-executive.com\/article\/report-carrier-uss-ford-s-electromagnetic-systems-still-need-work\">adverse effect<\/a>&quot; on flight operations. The Navy suggests that <em>Ford <\/em>has greatly improved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Politico reported Tuesday that the Navy will be dispatching a second carrier to join <em>Ford <\/em>in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Nimitz-class carrier USS <em>Dwight D. Eisenhower <\/em>was already scheduled to deploy to U.S. 6th Fleet and will now depart Friday, Pentagon officials told the outlet. If directed, she could be in the Eastern Mediterranean by the end of the month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A second carrier will augment <em>Ford&#039;s <\/em>capability and give U.S. Central Command the flexibility to respond to other contingencies elsewhere in Europe if needed. The U.S. Navy has maintained a steady carrier presence in the Mediterranean since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/>News source: http:\/\/maritime-executive.com <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maritime-executive.com\/article\/report-white-house-may-send-second-carrier-to-show-support-for-israel?rand=17996\" rel=\"noopener\">Go to original post<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The carrier USS Gerald R.
