The largest US military buildup since 2003 is now on station. As the USS Gerald R. Ford arrives in the Mediterranean and the USS Abraham Lincoln holds the Arabian Sea, we break down the full 2026 Persian Gulf armada, including F-35 stealth fighter counts, the 160th SOAR "Night Stalkers" deployment, and the secret "Tanker Bridge" currently fueling the region.
In this deep dive, we analyze the strategic "pincer" movement of the US Navy and Air Force as of February 23, 2026. From the 75th Ranger Regiment staged in Jordan to the diplomatic standoff over Diego Garcia, this is the most comprehensive force structure breakdown available.
