The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is expected to enter the Middle East combat zone, managed by U.S. Central Command, as early as tomorrow. This deployment marks the third aircraft carrier in the region, joining the USS George H.W. Bush and USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, which are already operational.
The Roosevelt's arrival follows a rapid transit from East Asia, across the Indian Ocean and into the Persian Gulf. The presence of three aircraft carriers represents an unusually large concentration of American military power. It is likely that at least one of the carriers that have been operating in the area for weeks or months will be relieved, and not all three will necessarily be engaged in combat simultaneously.
