Exploring Aircraft Carriers and Warships at Naval Station Norfolk

Exploring Naval Station Norfolk, home to approximately 75 ships and 134 aircraft, spread across 14 piers and 11 hangars.

It supports several nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, including USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) and USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69).

Additionally, the base hosts Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruisers such as USS Normandy (CG-60), Arleigh Burke-class destroyers like USS Mahan (DDG-72), and Virginia-class submarines such as USS Washington (SSN-787).

As a strategic hub, the station ensures rapid deployment capabilities and maintains naval dominance in the Atlantic and beyond.
