220728-N-DW158-1071 SOUTH CHINA SEA (July 28, 2022) Sailors prepare to guide an arresting gear wire back into position after an E-2D Hawkeye attached to the Tigertails of Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 125, lands on the flight deck of the U.S. Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). E-2D Hawkeyes perform tactical airborne early warning missions to provide valuable information to Carrier Strike Group 5 as it plans and executes operations. 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.
