Truman Carrier Strike Group participates in exercise Neptune Shield 22

May 26, 2022 - The USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group is under NATO command for Neptune Shield 22, a multinational maritime training exercise.
Synopsis

The carrier strike group led by the USS Harry S. Truman is participating in Neptune Shield 22, a series of NATO training events held between the Baltic, Mediterranean and Adriatic Seas from 17-31 May 2022.

For the second time this year, the Truman Carrier Strike Group has come under the command of Naval Striking and Support Forces NATO (STRIKFORNATO), testing its ability to conduct complex maritime operations as part of a larger multinational force. In the Baltic Sea, the USS Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group and the US 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit are also working under STRIKFORNATO command. Nineteen NATO Allies are participating in Neptune Shield 22.

The Truman Carrier Strike Group first entered the Mediterranean Sea in December 2021. After Russia invaded Ukraine and NATO Allies moved to strengthen their defensive posture, the carrier started launching fighter aircraft to join vigilance patrols over Alliance territory in eastern Europe. The Truman’s F/A-18 Hornets have since proven an integral part of securing Allied airspace.
