在一个雾蒙蒙、湿度很高的周日早晨，当地时间上午9点30分之前，美国海军“西奥多·罗斯福”号航空母舰（USS Theodore Roosevelt）驶离了圣地亚哥湾，开始执行一项备受期待但宣传甚少的军事任务。作为第9航母打击群（Carrier Strike Group 9，简称CSG-9）的旗舰舰，“西奥多·罗斯福”号于9月27日启程，预计将前往中东，接替正在那里执行对伊朗相关军事行动的航母。
On a hazy, humid Sunday morning, just before 9:30 a.m. local time, the USS sailed out of San Diego Bay for a much-anticipated but little-advertised deployment. The class flagship of Carrier Strike Group 9 (CSG-9), nicknamed“The Big Stick,” departed on September 27 and is expected to head to the Middle East to relieve of the carriers on station supporting operations against Iran, according to .
与从美国西海岸出发的军事行动通常的情况一样，海军方面并未公开宣布这次部署的具体细节；不过社交媒体上出现了一些未经证实的传闻，暗示了这次任务的真实性。
As is common with deployments from the West Coast, the departure was not announced by the Navy publicly, although there were several unconfirmed claims on social media that highlighted the impending cruise.
由三艘舰艇组成的“马金岛两栖作战群”（Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group，简称ARG）也于次日跟随“西奥多·罗斯福”号一同离开了港口。该舰队配备了数千名专门从事远征作战的海军陆战队员。虽然“马金岛两栖作战群”的最终目的地尚不清楚，但另一艘目前在中东执行任务的“拳师”号航空母舰（Boxer）已于3月18日离开美国，预计也将被替换下来执行新的任务。
The three-ship Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group (ARG), packed with thousands of Marines who specialize in expeditionary operations, followed path out of the harbor the next day While the Makin Island ARGs ultimate destination is unclear, the Boxer ARG, currently operating in the Middle East, left the United States on March 18 and is due for relief. Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group Deploys, Reportedly Bound For The Middle East USS keyed her Automatic Identification System (AIS) transponder on at 9:10 a.m.
据报道，“西奥多·罗斯福”号航空母舰于9月27日上午9点10分（太平洋夏令时间）启动了其自动识别系统（AIS），并通过MarineTraffic平台向外界公开了自己的精确位置。在几艘拖船的帮助下，该舰不到20分钟后便启航了。这艘超级航空母舰以7节的速度驶过洛马角（Point Loma），随后转向西方并加速行驶，最高航速达到了24节。
Pacific Daylight Time on September 27, broadcasting her precise position publicly via MarineTraffic and got underway less than 20 minutes later with the help of a few tugs. The supercarrier steamed past Point Loma at seven knots before sailing west and picking up speed, topping 24 knots, then made a hard turn south and stopped transmitting on AIS roughly three hours after departing.
大约三小时后，它突然转向南方，并停止了AIS信号的传输。在距离原位置西南方向55海里处，它短暂地重新开启了AIS系统，但此后便一直处于“信号不可用”的状态。
She briefly flipped AIS back on again, 55 nautical miles southwest of her previous location, but has been dark since.
据报道，这三艘配备有导弹系统的驱逐舰（USS [舰名1]、USS [舰名2] 和 USS [舰名3]）隶属于第9航母战斗群（CSG-9），并将负责为该航母提供护航。该战斗群由五艘舰艇组成，其中还包括一艘属于某级别的导弹驱逐舰（USS [舰名4]），该驱逐舰将担任整个战斗群的“综合防空与导弹防御”（IAMD）指挥官。这位指挥官负责协调整个战斗群的防空作战——这一职责至关重要，因为该航母即将进入实战区域。
与驱逐舰相比，这些导弹驱逐舰配备了更多的垂直发射系统（VLS）发射单元（共122个），而驱逐舰通常只有90到96个这样的发射单元；此外，这些老旧的驱逐舰正在逐步被退役，目前还没有新的舰艇能够替代它们；不过，最新的第三代驱逐舰（Flight III型）将会承担起防空指挥官的职责。
Three guided-missile destroyers, USS , USS , and USS , are part of CSG-9 and will escort the flattop, has learned. Rounding out the five-ship CSG is class guided-missile cruiser USS , which will serve as the Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) commander for the CSG. The IAMD warfare commander is responsible for coordinating air defense for the entire strike group − a vital role since will be entering an active combat zone. cruisers have 122 Vertical Launch System (VLS) cells, more than the 90 to 96 that destroyers are equipped with, and are being retired without a comparable cruiser lined up to replace the aging fleet; however, the newest Flight III destroyers will take on the air warfare commander role.
这艘航母已经或正在从西海岸搭载第11航母战斗群（CVW-11）的舰载机，随后将开始前往西太平洋的漫长航行。第11航母战斗群包括一个由第五代隐形战斗机F-35C“闪电II”组成的中队，以及三个F/A-18E/F“超级大黄蜂”战斗机中队和一个EA-18G“咆哮者”电子战飞机中队。舰上还配备了E-2D“鹰眼”侦察机、MH-60R/MH-60S“海鹰”直升机等支援机队，以及一支CMV-22B“鱼鹰”垂直起降机中队。
The carrier has embarked, or is in the process of taking on Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 11 off the West Coast before beginning the long journey toward the Western Pacific. CVW 11 includes a squadron of stealthy fifth-generation F-35C Lightning IIs, in addition to three squadrons of F/A-18E/F Super Hornets and one of EA-18G Growlers. Support squadrons of E-2D Hawkeyes, MH-60R Seahawks, and MH-60S Seahawks are also aboard, as well as a detachment of CMV-22B Ospreys.
有媒体率先证实了这次部署行动，并推测该航母战斗群可能会前往中东地区。他们在周一发布的一份报告中写道：“预计‘西奥多·罗斯福’号航母战斗群将会被调往美国中央司令部，以接替驻扎在日本的海军航母‘乔治·华盛顿’号（CVN-73）。”
was the first outlet to confirm the deployment and suggests the CSG is headed to the Middle East. “The Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group is expected to move to U.S. Central Command to relieve the Japan-based USS George Washington (CVN-73),” they wrote in a report published on Monday.
在回应关于该军舰部署情况的询问时，一位海军官员表示：“‘西奥多·罗斯福’号航空母舰战斗群目前正在美国海军第三舰队的行动区域内执行例行任务。美国海军第三舰队负责领导该地区的海军部队，并提供必要的训练，以确保海军能够全面履行其在各种军事行动中的职责——从作战任务到人道主义援助和灾害应对。第三舰队与盟友及合作伙伴共同努力，维护航行自由和飞越权，以及维护该地区安全所需的其他基本原则。”
In response to a request to confirm the deployment, a Navy official told , “The Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group is underway conducting routine operations in the U.S. 3rd Fleet area of operations. U.S. 3rd Fleet leads naval forces in the region and provides the realistic, relevant training necessary to execute our Navy’s role across the full spectrum of military operations – from combat operations to humanitarian assistance and disaster response. U.S. 3rd Fleet works together with allies and partners to advance freedom of navigation and overflight, the rule of law, and other principles that underpin security for the region.”
相关直播在某个平台上进行，直播期间最高时有数百名观众观看。在出现该军舰即将启航的传闻后，相关机构一直在密切关注这一情况。值得注意的是，现场并未看到海军官兵在舰桥上执勤（而通常情况下，海军官兵在舰桥上的出现是军舰正在执行部署任务而非训练任务的明显迹象）。不过，一些海军官兵及其亲友在社交媒体上发布的公开帖子表明，这艘军舰实际上正在执行其期待已久的巡航任务。
The underway was live-streamed on , which had a few hundred viewers at the peak. was monitoring the feed at the time after rumors surfaced that a departure was imminent. Notably, Sailors were not spotted manning the rails, which is usually an easy tell that a warship is deploying rather than training. However, several public posts on social media by individual Sailors, as well as their friends and family, pointed to the ship heading on its long-awaited cruise.
这艘航空母舰为此次远洋部署已经做了近一年的准备。该航母战斗群（CSG）上次执行任务的时间是2024年1月11日至10月15日，当时被派往美国第五和第七舰队负责的区域，以支持“Prosperity Guardian”军事行动。在近两年前返回基地后，该航母接受了为期八个月的“计划性逐步维护”（PIA）计划；维护结束后，它于2025年7月23日至29日完成了飞行甲板的认证及相关测试。
has been preparing for the cruise for the better part of a year. The CSG last deployed from January 11 to October 15, 2024, to the U.S. 5th and 7th Fleet areas of responsibility (AOR) in support of Operation Prosperity Guardian After arriving back home nearly two years ago, the carrier underwent an eight-month Planned Incremental Availability (PIA). Following the PIA, she completed flight deck certification and carrier qualifications from July 23 to July 29, 2025.
2026年，该航母参与了为期14天的“Composite Unit Training Exercise”（COMPTUEX）演习，随后于6月24日至7月28日驶往夏威夷参加两年一度的“Rim of the Pacific”（RIMPAC）联合军事演习。最近，该航母又完成了一次短暂的维护工作。
In 2026, the carrier conducted Composite Unit Training Exercise (COMPTUEX) from April 14 to May 15, and then steamed to Hawaii for the large-scale, biennial Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) exercise from June 24 to July 28. Most recently, completed a brief pierside availability prior to deploying, as first reported In February, Vice Adm. Brendan McLane told reporters at WEST 2026 that a medium unmanned surface vessel (MUSV) would deploy with the strike group for the first time.
据报道，海军中将布伦丹·麦克莱恩在2026年的WEST军事展览会上表示，一艘中型无人水面舰艇（MUSV）将首次与该航母战斗群一同执行任务。在COMPTUEX和RIMPAC演习期间，该航母与Leidos公司制造的MUSV“Seahawk”进行了联合训练。我们曾向海军询问这艘无人舰艇是否真的会随战斗群一同出征，但尚未收到官方答复。截至本文发布时，“Seahawk”仍停泊在圣地亚哥港，目前尚不清楚它是否会随战斗群执行任务，还是会留在圣地亚哥。
During COMPTUEX and RIMPAC, the Roosevelt CSG drilled alongside Leidos’ MUSV Seahawk, which was the first to report We asked the Navy to confirm whether an MUSV would accompany the group, but have not received a response. As of publication, Seahawk was still pierside in San Diego, and it’s unclear if the drone boat will operate with the CSG or remain in San Diego.
另外，由三艘舰艇组成的“Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group”也启程执行任务，具体目的地尚未公开。该战斗群包括一艘旗舰级的两栖攻击舰（USS Makin Island）以及两艘同级的两栖运输舰（USS San Diego和USS Portland），这三艘舰艇于9月28日一同出发，共同组成了这支远征舰队。
Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group Also Deploys, Destination Unknown The three-ship Makin Island ARG, with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) embarked, got underway for a deployment on September 28, a Navy official also confirmed to . In addition to the flagship class amphibious assault ship (LHD), USS , two class amphibious transport dock ships (LPD), USS and USS , left on the same day and round out the expeditionary group. No destination has been formally announced.
目前尚未正式宣布该舰队的最终目的地。不过，有一个显而易见的候选目的地：位于美国中央司令部（CENTCOM）辖区内的“Boxer”航空母舰。该舰队自3月中旬以来一直在该区域执行封锁及拦截行动。由于该舰队长期面临维护问题，且这些舰船已经连续数月未停靠过港口进行维修，因此它们的航行速度相对较慢。如果最终目的地确实是CENTCOM辖区，那么“Makin Island”航空母舰将需要加紧赶路，才能在11月之前抵达。
However, there is an obvious candidate for relief: the Boxer ARG. Currently on station in the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) AOR supporting blockade and interdiction operations in the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean, the group has been deployed since mid-March. The amphibious fleet is notorious for experiencing maintenance issues and these ships have been pushed hard without a port call in months. Amphibious ships move slower than carriers, and if CENTCOM turns out to be the final destination, the Makin Island ARG would have to hustle to arrive before November.
“Boxer”航空母舰上部署了属于海军陆战队第211战斗机攻击中队（VMFA 211）的F-35B“Lightning II”战斗机（这些战斗机具备短距起飞/垂直降落能力，即STOVL技术），以及属于海军陆战队第364中型倾转旋翼机中队（VMM 364）的MV-22B“Osprey”直升机（该中队已被增派至该航空母舰）。最近，“Bravo”中队还在加利福尼亚海岸附近进行了模拟空袭训练。

The Bravos recently conducted a simulated airstrike off the coast of California.
“亚伯拉罕·林肯”号航空母舰距离归航仅剩最后几天……代理海军部长洪超（Hung Cao）在“亚伯拉罕·林肯”号航行至夏威夷群岛海域、准备返回其母港圣地亚哥的途中，亲自登上了该舰的飞行甲板。她在周日发布的一篇文章中写道：“今天，‘亚伯拉罕·林肯’号上的战斗人员展示了他们在过去10个月里对抗敌人时所展现出的强大作战能力和实力。”
Abraham Lincoln Days Away From Well-Deserved Homecoming Acting Secretary of the Navy Hung Cao flew out to the flight deck of USS as she was sailing eastbound in the Hawaiian Islands operating area, en route to her homeport in San Diego. “Today, our warfighters aboard USS demonstrated the overwhelming capacity and capability that they brought to bear on our adversaries for the last 10 months,” he wrote in a post on Sunday.
在整个10个月的部署期间负责护航的一艘驱逐舰于周一脱离编队，并停靠在珍珠港-希卡姆联合基地。根据一份新闻稿显示，“在300天的时间里，船员们进行了45次海上补给，航行超过85,000海里，安全输送了超过7,544,486加仑的F-76燃料和175,288加仑的JP-5燃料，并完成了1,094小时的飞行任务。”声明还证实，该军舰担任了编队的综合防空反导（IAMD）指挥官。
USS , a destroyer that escorted throughout the 10-month deployment, peeled off and moored at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam on Monday. “Over the course of 300 days, crew conducted 45 replenishments-at-sea, sailed over 85,000 nautical miles, safely transferred over 7,544,486 gallons of F-76 fuel and 175,288 gallons of JP-5 fuel, and completed 1,094 hours of flight quarters,” according to a press release The statement also confirmed that the warship served as IAMD commander for the group.
这艘驱逐舰防御了100多次导弹和无人机袭击。近期，该舰与另一艘美国军舰在4月份进入波斯湾以支持扫雷工作，成为自战争爆发以来首批通过霍尔木兹海峡的美国军舰。
The destroyer defended against more than 100 missile and drone attacks, recently and USS became the first U.S. warships to transit the Strait of Hormuz since the war began when they entered the Persian Gulf in April in support of mine-clearance efforts.
目前该舰的部署时间已达314天，距离打破“艾森豪威尔”号在5月份创下的326天纪录还差不到两周。夏威夷距离北岛海军航空站约2,000海里，但假设采取直线航行，该舰似乎不会打破这一纪录。
is now 314 days into her deployment and less than two weeks shy of surpassing the 326-day record USS set in May. Approximately 2,000 nautical miles separate Hawaii from Naval Air Station North Island, but assuming a straight shot, it does not appear will break the record.
“艾森豪威尔”号上的“咆哮者”事故：美国海军在一份声明中宣布，两名隶属于“艾森豪威尔”号航空母舰的EA-18G“咆哮者”电子战机机组人员在因拦阻索故障弹射后获救。事故发生在周一东部夏令时间下午6点18分左右，当时该舰正在弗吉尼亚州海岸附近航行。
Growler Mishap On Dwight D. Eisenhower Two crew members from an EA-18G Growler embarked on the aircraft carrier USS were rescued after ejecting due to an arresting gear failure the Navy announced in a statement The incident took place on Monday around 6:18 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time as the vessel was underway off the coast of Virginia.
根据新闻稿，这两名飞行员隶属于第130电子攻击中队（VAQ-130）“扎帕”中队，并配属于第3舰载机联队（CVW-3），他们“已安全返回舰上，并正在接受医务人员的评估”。第7海上战斗直升机中队（HSC-7）“尘土飞扬的狗”中队使用MH-60S“海鹰”直升机营救了机组人员。
The aviators, assigned to the “Zappers” of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 130 and attached to CVW 3, “safely returned to the ship and are being evaluated by medical personnel,” according to the release. The “Dusty Dogs” of Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 7 recovered the crew using MH-60S Seahawk helos.
海军表示，有四名舰上人员“在事故中受伤，正在接受医疗护理”。根据最初的声明，“一名水兵正被送往诺福克地区的一家医院，接受非生命危险的伤情治疗”。总共有八名水兵接受了舰上医疗团队的评估。
Four shipboard personnel “were also injured during the mishap and are receiving medical care,” the Navy said. “One Sailor is being transported to a Norfolk-area hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries,” according to the original statement. In total, eight sailors were evaluated by the ship’s medical team.
事故原因仍在调查中，目前尚不清楚飞机是否失踪，也不清楚航母是否受损。已联系海军以了解更多细节。
The cause of the accident is still under investigation, and it’s unclear whether the aircraft was lost or if there was any damage to the carrier. has reached out to the Navy to find out more details.
今年4月，该舰完成了为期15个月的计划内增量维修（PIA）。自9月2日以来，该航母一直停靠在诺福克海军基地，此前它在海上航行了12天，在弗吉尼亚角和杰克逊维尔作战区完成了舰队后勤中队和训练司令部的航母资格认证（CQ）。根据公开的船舶自动识别系统（AIS）数据，该舰于9月28日下午再次启航，进行量身定制的舰艇训练可用性评估、最终评估问题和航母资格认证，这是在为合成训练部队演习（COMPTUEX）装载弹药之前的最后步骤之一，届时整个打击群将获得部署认证。
wrapped an extended 15-month PIA earlier this year in April. The flattop had been pierside at Naval Station Norfolk since September 2 after being at sea for 12 days completing Fleet Replacement Squadron and Training Command Carrier Qualifications (CQ) in the Virginia Capes and Jacksonville operating areas. She got underway again on the afternoon of September 28, based on public AIS data, for Tailored Ship’s Training Availability, Final Evaluation Problem, and CQ, one of the final steps before onloading ammunition for COMPTUEX, where the full strike group certifies for deployment.
该舰正在为计划于2027年上半年进行的未来部署做准备。此前有报道称，乔治·H·W·布什号航母即将前往泰国进行港口访问。泰国多家新闻媒体周二报道称，一直在中东支持针对伊朗行动的美国海军航母和驱逐舰将于10月初访问普吉岛。如果此次航行成行，这将是自4月以来首次仅剩一艘航母（即美国海军航母）驻扎在美国第五舰队责任区。海军尚未正式发布公告，也未证实这些报道。
is working up in preparation for a future deployment scheduled for the first half of 2027, previously reported Reports Surface That George H.W. Bush Is Headed To Thailand For A Port Call Multiple news outlets in Thailand reported Tuesday that USS and destroyer USS , which have both been in the Middle East in support of operations against Iran, will make a port call in Phuket in early October. If such a transit occurs, this would leave one carrier the USS , on station in the U.S. 5th Fleet AOR for the first time since April The Navy has not formally made an announcement, and has not verified the accounts.
这些报道基于美国驻泰国大使馆代表据称与芭东警方举行的一次会议，旨在讨论此次停靠期间的安全协议。“此次访问促使泰国当局与美国官员就安全、公共秩序以及到访军事人员在岸上休假期间的行动进行了协调，”文中写道。据该文章称，芭东警方会见了两位国防武官助理卢·范（Lou Pham）和罗伯特·罗宾逊（Robert Robinson），讨论了此次访问事宜。
The reports are based on a meeting that representatives of the U.S. Embassy in Thailand allegedly held with the Patong police to discuss security protocols during the stop. “The visit has prompted coordination between Thai authorities and US officials over security, public order, and the movement of visiting military personnel during shore leave,” wrote.
美方人员被建议在逗留期间遵守泰国法律，这一具体要求可能是由最近的访问所引发的。关于何时抵达普吉岛深水港，目前存在相互矛盾的说法，但访问可能会持续五到六天，这与近期在该东南亚国家的港口访问类似。如果时间表属实，这意味着它很可能已经从其位于阿拉伯海的驻地启程，根据DVIDS的记录，截至9月25日，航母打击群（CSG）最近一直在该地区行动。和也报道了此次即将进行的访问。
According to the article, Patong police met with two deputy assistant defense attachés, Lou Pham and Robert Robinson, to discuss the visit. U.S. personnel were advised to comply with Thai laws during their stay, a specific request that may have been triggered by the recent visit There are conflicting accounts of when would arrive in Phuket’s deep-sea port, but the visit will likely last five or six days, which is similar to recent port call in the Southeast Asian country. If the timeline holds, it means is likely already en route from her station in the Arabian Sea, where the CSG was most recently operating as of September 25, to DVIDS. The and also reported the upcoming visit.
值得注意的是，这些报道并未提及过去曾作为布什号航母打击群一部分的其他任何军舰，包括“号”、“号”、“号”或“号”。布什号航母打击群的组成在整个航行期间一直在发生变化。
Notably, the reports do not mention any of the other warships that have been part of the Bush CSG in the past, including USS , USS , USS , or USS . The composition of the Bush CSG has shifted throughout the cruise.
大型甲板舰队概览：总体而言，目前有四艘美国航母处于部署状态（其中一艘正在返航），三艘处于不同准备状态的训练中，三艘正在进行或即将进行维护，一艘主要用于明年退役前的训练，而未来的“号”（第二艘级航母）已在2027年春季交付前获得了初步验收。目前有两个两栖戒备群处于部署状态，一个处于前沿部署，三个正在进行训练或在港口，三个正在进行维护。联系
