221020-N-UF592-1083 PHILIPPINE SEA (Oct. 20, 2022) Sailors observe an F/A-18E Super Hornet, attached to the Royal Maces of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 27, approaches on the flight deck of the U.S. Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), in the Philippine Sea, Oct. 20. The Royal Maces conduct carrier-based air strikes and strike force escort missions, as well as ship, battle group, and intelligence collection 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.
