Aviation Ordnanceman 3rd Class Joseph Godley, from Copper Gove, Texas, assigned to the aircraft intermediate maintenance department (AIMD) of the first-in-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), checks the wiring of an su-80 attachment for an F/A 18 Super Hornet, March 8, 2023. Ford is underway in the Atlantic Ocean executing its Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX), an intense, multi-week exercise designed to fully integrate a carrier strike group as a cohesive, multi-mission fighting force and to test their ability to carry out sustained combat operations from the sea. As the first-in-class ship of Ford-class aircraft carriers, CVN 78 represents a generational leap in the U.S. Navy’s capacity to project power on a global scale.
