US Says Guided Missile Sub Has Arrived In Middle East

US Says Guided Missile Sub Has Arrived In Middle East

Handout photo dated January 6, 2011 shows the Ohio-class ballistic-missile submarine USS Wyoming (SSBN 742) departs Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, GA, USA, for routine operations. In a rare announcement, the US military said a guided missile submarine has arrived in the Middle East, a message of deterrence clearly directed at regional adversaries as the Biden administration tries to avoid a broader conflict amid the Israel-Hamas war. US Central Command said on social media Sunday that an Ohio-class submarine was entering its area of responsibility. The social media post did not name the sub, but the US Navy has four Ohio-class guided missile submarines, or SSGNs, which are former ballistic missile subs converted to fire Tomahawk cruise missiles rather than nuclear-tipped ballistic missiles.

    Handout photo dated April 11, 2024 shows Sailors signal an F/A-18F Super Hornet from the “Black Knights” of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 154, right, and an F/A-18E Super Hornet from the “Blue Blasters” of VFA-34 aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) during a trilateral exercise in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility. A U.S. carrier strike group led by the USS Theodore Roosevelt has held a two-day joint exercise with its allies Japan and South Korea as U.S. President Joe Biden met for talks with leaders from Japan and the Philippines at the White House. The military and diplomatic maneuvers are meant to strengthen the partners’ solidarity in the face of what they see as China’s aggressive military actions in the region. A number of U.S. and South Korean guided missile destroyers and a Japanese warship joined the drills in the disputed East China Sea, where worries about China’s territorial claims are rising.

                    US Navy Ending Aircraft Carrier's Middle East Deployment

                    Handout photo dated March 26, 2022 shows the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) transits the Atlantic Ocean. The Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier will return to its home port, the U.S. Navy said on Monday, ending its deployment to the eastern Mediterranean, which started in support of Israel after the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas militants. The nuclear-powered Ford, the Navy's newest carrier with over 4,000 personnel and eight squadrons of aircraft, became a powerful symbol of American support by rushing closer to Israel after the Palestinian militant group's attack.
