USS Abe Lincoln arrives in Middle East, making it two aircraft carriers Al Arabiya English
The USS Abraham Lincoln has arrived in the Middle East after orders from the US secretary of defense to accelerate its transit from the Indo-Pacific, a source familiar with the operation told Al Arabiya English.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had ordered the Lincoln aircraft carrier and its strike group to replace the USS Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group to maintain a strike group presence in the region.
The Roosevelt will remain in the region for a short period of time, giving the US two Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in the Middle East, before its scheduled return to the United States.
