Other deployments in the Persian Gulf “Lincoln”, “Kitty Hawk”, “Constellation” and other aircraft carrier combat groups gradually evacuated, and has 8 warships and 8,000 naval and flight warfighters “Nimitz” aircraft carrier battle group stayed. “Nimitz” has a very strong air strike capability, so the United States decided that the ship will continue to be stationed in the Gulf to play a role.
