Rear Adm. James Downey, program executive officer, Aircraft Carriers, and Capt. Paul Lanzilotta, commanding officer, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), pose for a group photo with Ford Sailors and Newport News shipbuilders following the turnover of Lower Stage Weapons Elevator 6 from Huntington Ingalls Industries’ Newport News Shipbuilding in Newport News, Virginia, Dec. 22, 2021. The advanced weapons elevator is an innovative Ford-class-specific technology that allows for the streamlining of weapons assembly and movement, and provides greater efficiencies with less manpower and maintenance requirements. Ford is in port at Newport News Shipyard executing her Planned Incremental Availability (PIA), a six-month period of modernization, maintenance and repairs.
