🚫 CLAIM: Iran is now claiming it has targeted a U.S. Navy destroyer in the Gulf of Oman.

🚫CLAIM: Iran claimed today that it did not attack the passenger terminal at Kuwait International Airport and damage was instead caused by a U.S. missile interceptor. Totally FALSE.

A U.S. Navy aircraft carrier is essentially a self-contained city at sea. Roughly three football fields long, with over 5,000 Sailors on board, it takes the whole team — both above and below deck — to keep operations running smoothly.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

Sustained flight operations aboard U.S. aircraft carriers and warships is no easy task. Skilled maintainers work around the clock to ensure aircraft are at peak readiness to support any mission.
