VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (July 12, 2024) – Royal Navy Commodore Simon Kelly, deputy commander, U.K. Strike Force, left, speaks with Cmdr. David Seibel, U.S. NATO Liaison Officer to U.K. Strike Force on board Naval Air Station Oceana’s Dam Neck Annex during a joint, Allied Fleet Synthetic Training (FST) event led by Tactical Training Group Atlantic, a subordinate command of CSG-4. The training event used the Navy’s Continuous Training Environment (NCTE) for distributed training in an LVC environment that combines real-world, in-person elements with virtual reality, simulation, and other computer-generated technologies to enable service members to train as they fight for combat. The FST event incorporated nearly 40 commands including United Kingdom Strike Forces, CSG-4, Harry S. Truman CSG (CSG-8), Gerald R. Ford CSG (CSG-12), HMS Prince of Wales (UK CSG), a patrol squadron, submarines, supply and logistics ships, the 178th Wing, the 337th Air Control Squadron, and the 960th Airborne Air Control Squadron. CSG-4 mentors, trains and assesses carrier strike groups, amphibious ready groups, and independent deployers for global combat against peer competitors.
