220618-N-BR419-1169 PHILIPPINE SEA (June 18, 2022) Aviation Boatswain’s Mate (Handling) 1st Class Guillermo Segura, from Lawton, Oklahoma, directs an EA-18G Growler attached to the Shadowhawks of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 141, on the flight deck of the U.S. Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). The primary role of EA-18G Growlers is to disrupt the ability to communicate between units in combat through the use of electronic warfare. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the United States, and supports alliances, partnerships and collective maritime interests in the Indo-Pacific region.
