(Worthy News) – An aircraft carrier strike group led by the USS Nimitz is conducting operations in the disputed South China Sea, including practice strike missions by aircraft, the Navy disclosed Friday.
“The Nimitz carrier strike group has the capability to deliver integrated lethal and non-lethal effects from space to undersea, across every axis, and every domain,” said Rear Adm. Christopher Sweeney, commander of the strike group.
The operations by the carrier, its air wing and three warships include “maritime strike training,” along with anti-submarine warfare practices and joint training with surface ships and aircraft. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
