USS Oscar Austin (DDG 79), an Arleigh-Burke Class guided-missile destroyer, steams in the Atlantic Ocean, March 7, 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 Navy's capacity to project power on a global scale. ( Navy
