Aviation Machinist's Mate Airman Ricardo Ulloa (right), from Anaheim, California, and Aviation Ordnanceman Airman Joseph Davis, from Asheville, North Carolina, both assigned to the first-in-class aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford’s (CVN 78) aircraft intermediate maintenance department (AIMD), perform routine maintenance on the afterburner of an F/A-18 jet engine, March 21, 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.
