Carrier strike group (CSG) is an operational formation of the United States Navy. It is centered on an aircraft carrier and a carrier air wing (CVW) of 65 to 70 aircrafts. It’s composed of roughly 7,500 personnel, an aircraft carrier, at least one cruiser, a destroyer squadron of at least two destroyers and/or frigates. A carrier strike group also, on occasion, includes submarines, attached logistics ships and a supply ship. Carrier strike groups comprise a principal element of U.S. power projection over the world’s oceans.
7 in port and 3 out&about. That’s normal.
We should add 6 more to the fleet. Maybe then we can get as many as 5 of them out&about at one time. Even better- build 12 more. Then we can really get some good coverage.
YOU’LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE IT!
