Lincoln aircraft carrier shows rust after Iran strike
Recent photos have shown that the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is covered in thick layers of rust after approximately 286 days at sea, during military missions in the Middle East, including operations related to the war against Iran. It is worth noting that the carrier, which is about 1,100 feet long, has remained in service for an extended period without adequate maintenance, leading to the deterioration of its structure due to constant exposure to salty sea water and harsh weather conditions. Experts have confirmed that removing the rust would take about 30 days of maintenance work, involving scraping the affected areas and then applying anti-corrosion coatings—an effort difficult to carry out during ongoing naval operations. The current state of the carrier highlights a continuing lack of routine maintenance, serving as a reminder of the importance of early corrosion treatment before its parts weaken and performance is affected, especially given the long service duration and continuous travel.
