Summary

BUSAN, Republic of Korea, (Oct. 30, 2015) Rear Adm. John Alexander, the commander of Battle Force 7th Fleet, greets senior military leaders from the Republic of Korea (ROK), after the Nimitz class aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), pulled into Busan for a scheduled port visit. Reagan is the Navy's only forward deployed aircraft carrier and is conducting a scheduled port visit while participating in bilateral training with the ROK Navy to strengthen the U.S.-ROK alliance and improve regional stability. Ronald Reagan and its embarked air wing, Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 5, provide a combat ready force that protects and defends the collective maritime interests of the U.S. and its allies and partners in the Indo-Asia-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.
