Tracking U.S. Naval Power
The United States projects its geopolitical power around the world through the strength and reach of the U.S. Navy, and the most important ships in the navy are its aircraft carriers.
Sample Article: U.S. Naval Update Map: Oct. 31, 2012
The Naval Update Map shows the approximate current locations of U.S. Carrier Strike Groups and Amphibious Ready Groups, based on available open-source information. No classified or operationally sensitive information is included in this weekly update. CSGs and ARGs are the keys to U.S. dominance of the world's oceans. A CSG is centered on an aircraft carrier, which projects U.S. naval and air power and supports a Carrier Air Wing. The CSG includes significant offensive strike capability. An ARG is centered on three amphibious warfare ships, with a Marine Expeditionary Unit embarked. An MEU is built around a heavily reinforced and mobile battalion of Marines.
Carrier Strike Groups
• The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower CSG with Carrier Air Wing 7 embarked is under way in the U.S. 5th Fleet AOR (area of responsibility) conducting missions supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts.
• The USS John C. Stennis CSG with Carrier Air Wing 9 embarked is under way in the U.S. 5th Fleet AOR conducting missions supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts.

• The USS Enterprise CSG with Carrier Air Wing 1 embarked is heading home in the Atlantic Ocean after its final deployment.
• The USS Nimitz is under way in the Pacific Ocean conducting a Composite Training Unit Exercise.
