WATERS SOUTH OF JAPAN (Sep. 4, 2016) An E-2C Hawkeye, from the “Liberty Bells” of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 15, approaches the flight deck of the Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). The E-2C Hawkeye is an all-weather, carrier-based aircraft that provides airborne early warning, airborne battle management, and command and control functions for the carrier strike group. Flight operations mark the embarkation of Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 5 aircraft to Ronald Reagan for their routine patrol. Ronald Reagan and its embarked air wing, CVW-5, provide a combat-ready force, which protects and defends the collective maritime interests of the U.S. and its allies and partners in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
