Abraham Lincoln carrier back in US after 10 months
The American aircraft carrier "Abraham Lincoln" has concluded one of its longest missions in Middle Eastern waters, having spent approximately 321 days on deployment — the second-longest duration since the end of the Cold War. During the mission, the carrier group carried out around 10,000 sorties, launched 450 Tomahawk missiles, shot down 77 drones and 21 anti-ship cruise missiles, and participated in combat operations against Iran, including the sinking of 64 Iranian vessels. The crew faced numerous challenges, including supply disruptions and psychological effects, with the Navy recording eight cases of suicide. However, improvements are underway to enhance quality of life aboard carriers on future deployments.
