About us
U.S. Pacific Fleet advances Indo-Pacific regional maritime security and enhances stability. The world’s largest fleet command, the U.S. Pacific Fleet encompasses 100 million square miles, nearly half the Earth’s surface, from Antarctica to the Arctic circle and from the West Coast of the United States into the Indian Ocean. The U.S. Pacific Fleet consists of approximately 200 ships, 1,500 aircraft, and 150,000 military and civilian personnel. Adm. Stephen T. Koehler is the current commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet. He is the 38th commander since the fleet’s Pearl Harbor headquarters was established in February 1941. Past commanders of the Pacific Fleet include such naval giants as Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz and Admiral Raymond Spruance The Navy’s history in the Pacific actually spans more than a century and a half. Through the years, the Pacific Fleet commander’s vision, mission and guiding principles have evolved as its challenges have changed. But many Navy customs and traditions have continued over the years, making the Navy unique among the services. Under the current organization and command structure, the U.S. Pacific Fleet staff reports administratively to the Chief of Naval Operations and operationally to the U.S. Pacific Command, whose headquarters are at nearby Camp H.M. Smith. Commands that fall directly under the Pacific Fleet include “type” commands for surface ships, submarines and aircraft as well as Navy construction. Operational commands that report directly to the U.S. Pacific Fleet include Third Fleet in the Eastern Pacific and Seventh Fleet in the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean. To Sailors beginning a tour at Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet, we offer a hearty Welcome Aboard!

Developing World-Class Technical Leaders at Sea 🚢 Operating and maintaining the advanced systems of a guided-missile destroyer requires immense technical expertise and unwavering teamwork. During recent operations in the Indian Ocean, the engineering professionals aboard USS Mustin (DDG 89) put their skills to the ultimate test during complex casualty control drills. These exercises challenge our Sailors to diagnose, contain, and repair simulated system failures under pressure. At the U.S. Pacific Fleet, we know that our greatest strategic advantage is our people. The rigorous training conducted by the Mustin engineering team highlights our commitment to developing resilient, highly capable technical experts who are ready to respond to any challenge, anywhere in the world. 📍 Indian Ocean 📸 MC2 Timothy Dimal #USPacificFleet #US7thFleet #USNavy #USSMustin #NavyReadiness #ForgedByTheSea

📸: Virginia-class fast-attack submarine USS North Carolina (SSN 777) sits in Dry Dock 1 at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & IMF as it prepares to undock. North Carolina has been at the shipyard undergoing restoration and modernization, and this undocking evolution marks the successful wrap-up of the maintenance work completed in dry dock. The transition to the waterborne phase prepares North Carolina for its return to operational status, bringing a modernized asset closer to rejoining the #nuclearfleet as a ready, lethal force built to win. #technicalexcellence | #peoplegetthingsdone | #poweringmaritimedominance
