NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Sept. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman\u00a0<\/em>(CVN 75) arrived at HII\u2019s (NYSE: HII) Newport News Shipbuilding division today to start its refueling and complex overhaul (RCOH) after years of advance planning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve taken a proactive approach, from ordering long lead-time materials to conducting thousands of inspections and preliminary work, to ensure the RCOH of USS Harry S. Truman<\/em> is successful,\u201d said Bryan Caccavale<\/a>, NNS vice president of program management. \u201cThis extensive engineering and construction project to ready the ship to rejoin the fleet is a team effort, across shipbuilders, suppliers and our Navy partners, and we are honored to do our part.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Truman <\/em>is the eighth\u00a0Nimitz<\/em>-class carrier to undergo this major mid-life availability, representing about a third of all maintenance and modernization completed during its service life that will span over 50 years. During RCOH on CVN 75, NNS will perform hull and freeboard blast and paint, repairs to its propellers, sea chests, shafts, and rudders and defueling and refueling of its power plant.<\/p>\n

This effort will produce a recapitalized aircraft carrier capable of supporting current and future national strategy objectives while continuing to operate as the centerpiece of the Navy fleet and national defense for decades to come.<\/p>\n
