US Navy aircraft carrier going head-to-head with the Houthis has its planes in the air 'constantly,' strike-group commander says

  • Business Insider went aboard USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, which has been combating Houthi threats.
  • The aircraft carrier has planes in the sky “constantly,” the strike group’s commander said.
  • Keeping aircraft ready for missions is a substantial effort with a lot of moving parts.

It is loud, hot, and busy on the flight deck of the Ike, a deployed US Navy aircraft carrier which has heavily armed fighter jets taking off and landing around the clock.

The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower is a lead ship in the Navy’s response to the Houthis, and its aircraft have been involved in striking the Iran-backed rebels directly in Yemen and intercepting threats in the air. Business Insider saw operations firsthand during a visit to the nuclear-powered Nimitz-class carrier.

For the crew of the Eisenhower, keeping its planes ready — and airborne — is a robust operation and no easy feat, the carrier strike group’s commander said.

For the crew of the Eisenhower, keeping its planes ready — and airborne — is a robust operation and no easy feat, the carrier strike group’s commander said.

In the months leading up to the deployment in mid-October, the carrier’s crew was practicing things such as dynamic targeting, even though it wasn’t known what the security situation off the coast of Yemen would be, Capt.

Preemptive strikes, which are aimed at effectively eliminating Houthi missiles and drones before they can even become a threat to international shipping lanes, have become a regular occurrence in recent weeks.

Scott said the Navy had “significantly degraded” the Houthis’ capabilities over the past few weeks, including their ability to launch missiles and drones, thanks in part to the Eisenhower’s actions and the planes that are airborne throughout the day.
