Paul Lanzilotta, commander, Carrier Strike Group 12, watch the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mahan (DDG 72) transit in formation next to the world’s largest aircraft carrier, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) from the LSO platform, April 11, 2025. The Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group is underway in the Atlantic Ocean completing integrated naval warfighting training.
