U.S. Navy Carrier Group Arrives in South Korea Following North’s Missile Tests
SHARE

The USS Carl Vinson and its accompanying Carrier Strike Group One arrived in Busan, South Korea, on March 2, reinforcing the U.S. military presence in the region.

While the U.S. Navy described the visit as part of a scheduled deployment, the timing follows North Korea’s recent missile tests, raising concerns about heightened tensions on the Korean Peninsula.

North Korea conducted its latest cruise missile tests in the Yellow Sea on February 26, with state media confirming that the missiles traveled approximately 130 miles.

The test was personally overseen by Kim Jong Un, with Pyongyang justifying it as a warning against its “enemies, who are seriously violating the security environment of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and fostering and escalating the confrontation environment.”

This marked North Korea’s fourth missile test in 2025, further intensifying the already fragile security dynamics in the region.

During a visit to the Carl Vinson, Gen. Xavier T. Brunson, commander of U.S. Forces Korea, emphasized the strategic importance of the deployment.

“The Carl Vinson’s presence here not only underscores the importance of both the maritime and air domains but also reaffirms our commitment to maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific by integrating these unique capabilities into our comprehensive all-domain approach,” Brunson stated.

The Carl Vinson Carrier Strike Group, operating within the U.S. 7th Fleet’s area of responsibility, had previously participated in Exercise Pacific Steller 2025, a multinational force projection drill alongside the French Navy and Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force. This exercise, conducted in the Philippine Sea, involved complex multi-deck operations showcasing air and naval coordination between allied forces. Following the conclusion of the exercise, the U.S. strike group proceeded toward the Korean Peninsula.

The strike group is composed of:

  • USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) – Nimitz-class aircraft carrier
  • USS Princeton (CG-59) – Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser
  • USS Sterett (DDG-104) – Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer
  • USS William P. Lawrence (DDG-110) – Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer
  • Carrier Air Wing 2, including F-35C Lightning II, F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, and MH-60R/S Seahawks

This marks the first visit by a U.S. aircraft carrier to South Korea since June 2024.

The USS Carl Vinson had previously docked in Busan in November 2023, reinforcing the United States’ ongoing military commitments to its regional allies.

The U.S. has conducted several joint military exercises over the Korean Peninsula in response to North Korean provocations, including bomber flyovers and aerial drills with South Korea and Japan.

These exercises aim to demonstrate deterrence and uphold stability in the Indo-Pacific, though they have frequently drawn sharp criticism from Pyongyang.

With North Korea continuing missile tests and expanding its military capabilities, the arrival of Carrier Strike Group One signals a firm U.S. commitment to regional security and allied defense efforts.

As tensions remain high, the presence of U.S. naval power in the region underscores the strategic importance of maintaining deterrence and safeguarding maritime security in East Asia.
