240710-N-ER894-1391 PACIFIC OCEAN (July 10, 2024) An F/A-18F Super Hornet, attached to the Diamondbacks of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 102, piloted by Capt. Patrick Corrigan, commander, Carrier Air Wing 5, and Capt. Daryle Cardone, commanding officer of the Navy’s only forward-deployed aircraft carrier, USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), launches from the flight deck during flight operations in the Pacific Ocean, July 10. The Diamondbacks conduct carrier-based air strikes and strike force escort missions, as well as ship, battle group, and intelligence collection operations. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the United States, and supports alliances, partnerships and collective maritime interests in the Indo-Pacific region.
