USS FORD
SUMMARY

As President Trump is demanding Iran's "unconditional surrender" amid escalating tensions with Israel, the USS Ford carrier strike group will be stationed in the Eastern Mediterranean near Israel for security purposes. This deployment, planned since last year, coincides with ongoing conflicts.

U.S. fighter jets and tankers have been sent to the region, patrolling skies and launching defensive strikes, although no American aircraft are over Iran. The USS The Sullivans and USS Arleigh Burke are actively defending against Iranian missile attacks on Israel.

The USS Carl Vinson is in the Arabian Sea, with the USS Nimitz set to arrive soon.
