Equipment configuration and bases of several major fleets of the US Navy

At present, the US Navy has two fleets, the Atlantic Fleet and the Pacific Fleet,1/aircraft carrier battle group and1carrier aircraft wing. It is mainly equipped with 84 submarines, large surface ships 143 (including1/aircraft carrier, 3 1 guided missile cruiser, 52 guided missile destroyers and 49 guided missile frigates) and 2,900 aircraft (1728 combat aircraft). 1. Naval forces, including surface naval forces and submarine forces, are incorporated into the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Usually under the leadership of naval warfare departments, under the unified command of their respective theater headquarters in wartime. Both groups take the form of management and task grouping. Administrative organization: it is divided into surface warship command and underwater warship command. Surface ships have several brigades, including surface ships, cruisers and destroyers, amphibious ships, special operations, minesweepers and supply ships. A brigade has several squadrons, such as 1 cruiser destroyer brigade, which consists of 2~4 cruisers and 2~4 destroyer squadrons. The submarine forces are basically the same, except that the conventional submarine squadron is equipped with 4~6 submarines, while the nuclear submarine squadron may be equipped with 7~ 10 submarines. Aircraft carriers are usually organized into aircraft carrier battle groups and belong to the fleet aviation command. The so-called task formation, that is, the special mixed formation, is a mixed fleet formed to carry out operations, exercises, tactical training and a specific task. It is only responsible for the campaign and tactical command of its subordinate units, not its administrative affairs; The required troops are drawn from various administrative establishments and will be restored to the administrative establishment once the task is completed. The task formation is divided into five levels according to the strength: combat fleet, special mixed fleet, special mixed brigade, special mixed class and special mixed detachment. The combat fleet is a strategic corps of the navy, which can independently carry out various large-scale battles. The US Navy has five large combat fleets. The Pacific Fleet consists of three combat fleets, namely, the 3rd (responsible for the Pacific theater), the 7th (responsible for the Western Pacific theater) and the 5th (responsible for the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea theater), while the Atlantic Fleet consists of two combat fleets, namely, the 2nd (responsible for the Atlantic theater) and the 6th (responsible for the Mediterranean theater). The strength of each fleet is similar. For example, the 6th Fleet consists of 1 aircraft carrier, 2 cruisers, 3 destroyers, 2 frigates, 2 attack submarines, 2 coastal patrol boats, 3 amphibious ships and 3 reserve ships, totaling 18 ships. The Seventh Fleet * * * owns 19, and the Fifth Fleet * * * owns 18. In addition, each fleet also has a part of the logistics of the Military Maritime Bureau to help ships accompany combat ships. Aircraft carrier is the most important ship type of the US Navy, and it is often the core force for the Navy to independently carry out combat missions. At present, there are 1 1 aircraft carriers, including 8 nuclear-powered multi-purpose aircraft carriers, namely 7 Nimitz-class (Nimitz, Eisenhower, carl vinson, Roosevelt, Lincoln, Washington and Stannis), and. There are 3 conventional power multi-purpose aircraft carriers, namely 2 Kitty Hawk (Kitty Hawk and Constellation) and 1 forest (Independence).
