Summary
PHILIPPINE SEA (Sep. 15, 2018) Aviation Mechanic Airman Joel-Marc Lobban, from Kingsland, Jamaica, performs maintenance on an MH-60S Sea Hawk helicopter assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 12 in the hangar bay of Navy's forward-deployed aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) in preparation for the Valiant Shield 2018 exercise. Valiant Shield is a U.S. only, biennial field training exercise (FTX) with a focus on integration of joint training in a blue-water environment among U.S. forces. This training enables real-world proficiency in sustaining joint forces through detecting, locating, tracking, and engaging units at sea, in the air, and in cyberspace in response to a range of mission areas. Ronald Reagan, the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 5, provides a combat-ready force that protects and defends the collective maritime interests of its allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region.

Aircraft carriers are warships that act as airbases for carrier-based aircraft. In the United States Navy, these consist of ships commissioned with hull classification symbols CV (aircraft carrier), CVA (attack aircraft carrier), CVB (large aircraft carrier), CVL (light aircraft carrier), CVN (aircraft carrier (nuclear propulsion) and CVAN (attack aircraft carrier (nuclear propulsion). The first aircraft carrier commissioned into the United States Navy was USS Langley (CV-1) on 20 March 1922.
