Biden Names New Gerald R. Ford-Class Nuclear-Powered Carriers CVN 82 and CVN 83 After Clinton and Bush
Jan 13, 2025, 10:51 PM
President Joe Biden announced on Monday that the next two Gerald R. Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers will be named after former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. The future USS William J. Clinton (CVN 82) and USS George W. Bush (CVN 83) will honor the legacies of these two leaders, who served as Commanders in Chief. The decision marks a continuation of the tradition of naming aircraft carriers after significant figures in U.S. history. These carriers are set to begin construction in the coming years and are expected to enter service in the mid-2030s. The naming of these ships underscores their role as symbols of American naval power and their capacity to project force globally in defense of the nation's interests.
