The George Washington will be deployed in Yokosuka for the second time. It was first forward-deployed to Japan in 2008 and became the first nuclear-powered carrier to do so. It served there for seven years until it was replaced by Ronald Reagan in 2015. 

The George Washington is amid a multiyear process of refueling and complex overhaul in Virginia, carried out once during a carrier’s 50-year lifespan and involves refueling its two nuclear reactors.
