F/A-18E Super Hornet Poster
Capt. William Koyama, commander of Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 5, prepares to achieve his 4000th flight hour in an F/A-18E Super Hornet from the "Dambusters" of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 195 as it launches from the flight deck of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73). USS George Washington and its embarked air wing, CVW 5, are on patrol in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility supporting security and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. USS George Washington will conduct a hull-swap with the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) later this year after serving seven years as the U.S. Navy's only forward-deployed aircraft carrier in Yokosuka, Japan (June 12, 2015 - Photograph by Mass Communication Specialist Seaman 3rd Class Bryan Mai - Released).
