DocV sends us a link from USNI<\/a> which reports that the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75) has left the Mediterranean Sea and entered the North Atlantic on patrol for Russian attack submarines;<\/p>\n

In terms of great power competition, there is growing evidence that Russia continues to push its newest attack submarines to operate the North Atlantic at a pace not seen since the Cold War, Navy leaders have continued to stress publicly.<\/p>\n

\u201cRussian submarines are prowling the Atlantic, testing our defenses, confronting our command of the seas, and preparing the complex underwater battlespace to give them an edge in any future conflict,\u201d current U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa commander Adm. James Foggo wrote in U.S. Naval Institute\u2019s Proceedings in 2016.
\n\u201cNot only have Russia\u2019s actions and capabilities increased in alarming and confrontational ways, its national-security policy is aimed at challenging the United States and its NATO allies and partners.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The escort fleet includes at least six guided missile destroyers and the German guided missile frigate FGS Hessen.<\/p>\n

[Bryan Clark, a senior fellow at CSBA] said the U.S. [destroyers] are equipped with an effective anti-submarine warfare packages that work well in the Atlantic but aren\u2019t typically deployed there.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to make a special effort to put them there,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
