Aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75) is repaired and preparing to deploy, after extensive electrical issues sidelined the carrier from its scheduled September deployment date.
Truman and its carrier strike group had completed a final certification event, the composite training unit exercise (COMPTUEX), and were preparing to head out on deployment around Labor Day, when the carrier suffered “electrical malfunction within the ship’s electrical distribution system requiring analysis and repair,†the Navy told USNI News in late August.
Since that time, a range of personnel – including from the ship’s crew and the nearby Norfolk Naval Shipyard repair facility – have been working to get the electrical distribution system back up and running.
