The United States in a few months will be ready for the invasion of the DPRK
According to the online newspaper "MIC“The United States is capable of creating a strike force at sea for several months to conduct a military operation against the DPRK.
According to the publication, at present, the US aircraft carriers are located in the following places:
USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) - Warhead, goes to Korea.
USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) - combat, near Korea at the permanent station in Yokosuka, Japan.
USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) - on the alert, on the combat readiness exercises. But it is in the Atlantic Ocean, so it may not come soon.
USS George HW Bush (CVN 77) - in combat service in the area of responsibility of the Fifth fleet.
USS Nimitz (CVN 68) - is undergoing combat training (COPTUEX) in the Pacific.
USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) - finished repairs, BS is expected in the western Pacific near the end of 2017.
USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) - pending repair.
USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) - pending repair.
USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) - should return to the fleet after the overhaul of the overhaul with the reboot of reactors (RCOH).
USS George Washington (CVN 73) - waiting for the start of the RCOH.
Thus, Ike, Nimitz and Roosevelt can join Winson and Reagan through 1 - 3 of the month (presumably CENTCOM will get Bush). Stennis and Truman may come to replace Vinson and Reagan. That is, 3 ASU can be deployed off the coast of North Korea, which corresponds to the Naval Response Plan, another 3 AUG for 1-3 months and 2 in a later perspective to replace the deployed now.
