    USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78)           

    170408-N-XS424-0001
    ATLANTIC OCEAN (April 8, 2017) -- An SH-60 Seahawk from Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 5 “Knightdippers” lands on the flight deck of Pre-Commissioning Unit Gerald R. Ford. The future USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) is underway on its own power for the first time. The first-of-class ship -- the first new U.S. aircraft carrier design in 40 years -- will spend several days conducting builder's sea trials, a comprehensive test of many of the ship's key systems and technologies.
