USS Carney (DDG-64) is the 14th Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the United States Navy. The guided-missile destroyer is the first to be named after Admiral Robert Carney, who served as Chief of Naval Operations during the Eisenhower administration.

Contents

Carney was laid down in 1993 at Bath Iron Works in Bath, Maine. She was launched in 1994 with Betty Taussig, daughter of Admiral Carney, as sponsor. She was placed in commission in 1996, and is homeported in Mayport, Florida. [4] She has a range of 5,100 miles (4,400 nautical miles), travels at a speed in excess of 30 knots, and has a crew of 329. [5] She is armed with standard missiles, Harpoon missile launchers, Tomahawk missiles, a 54 caliber lightweight gun, and torpedoes, and carries a multi-mission helicopter. [5]

In 2002, she deployed to the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. In 2011, Carney disrupted four piracy attempts and disarmed and captured 30 suspected pirates, in support of Operation Ocean Shield in the Gulf of Aden. In 2016, Carney took part in Operation Odyssey Lightning, against ISIS militants in Libya.

In December 2023, Carney and civilian-owned ships were attacked in the Red Sea, with ballistic missiles fired and drones launched from Yemen by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels.[ clarification needed ]

Service history

1998–2010

Carney was assigned to Destroyer Squadron 14 prior to commissioning. Carney transferred to Destroyer Squadron 24 in September 1998. Her first deployment was to the Mediterranean Sea in 1997 and 1998 as part of the USS George Washington battle group. In 1999 Carney deployed again to the Mediterranean, setting a milestone as the first United States Navy ship to operate in a bilateral United States-Japan Naval Exercise to be conducted in the Mediterranean Sea. In May 2001 Carney participated in Fleet Week in New York City. [6]

In February 2002, Carney operated as part of the USS John F. Kennedy battle group while conducting phase one of technical evaluations of Cooperative Engagement Capability systems in the waters of Puerto Rico. Phase two of these evaluations were then conducted in the Virginia Capes operating area. She deployed to the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf in 2002 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. On 10 June 2002 Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld visited the ship in Manama, Bahrain. In December 2003 Carney participated in a Vandel Exercise testing the capability to intercept hostile missiles with the ship's missiles. On 13 August 2004 Carney put to sea from Naval Station Mayport in order to avoid the effects of Hurricane Charley. [7]

In March and April 2007, Carney visited St. Kitts, Nevis, Antigua, Barbuda, St. Lucia, and Barbados to show the U.S.'s commitment to stability to its regional partners. During a visit to Barbados, Carney hosted a reception. Among the guests were Barbados Prime Minister Owen Arthur. [7]

In November 2007, Carney deployed with Carrier Strike Group 10, led by the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, to the Middle East, where she carried out Theater Security Operations. She completed a number of multi-national exercises with a number of Middle Eastern countries and returned to Naval Station Mayport on 4 June 2008. [7] In July 2008, Carney was in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for Fourth of July celebrations. On 8 September 2009 Carney arrived in New York City to participate in the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson's arrival. [8]

On 2 January 2010 Carney departed homeport for a scheduled deployment in the U.S. 5th Fleet and 6th Fleet AoR, as part of the Dwight D. Eisenhower carrier strike group.[ citation needed ] In May, the Carney took a month's sabbatical from Combined Task Force 150 and Combined Task Force 151 security operations, leaving the International Recommended Transit Corridor (IRTC) to participate in three separate and back-to-back multinational exercises: Arabian Shark 2010, an anti-submarine warfare exercise with Pakistan; Khunjar Haad 2010, an air defense exercise with Oman; and Eagle Salute 2010, a multi-warfare area exercise hosted by Egypt, returning to Naval Station Mayport on 31 July 2010. [8]

2011–2019

On 1 August 2011, Carney departed Naval Station Mayport for a scheduled deployment as part of Standing NATO Maritime Group 1 (SNMG 1). During the deployment, she disrupted four piracy attempts, boarded nine vessels, approached 28 suspected pirate vessels, and disarmed and captured 30 suspected pirates in support of Operation Ocean Shield in the Gulf of Aden. [9] [10]

On 17 October 2013, Carney departed Naval Station Mayport for a scheduled independent deployment. On 25 May 2014, Carney returned to Naval Station Mayport after a seven-month Persian Gulf deployment in support of Maritime Intercept Operations (MIO). [11]

On 25 September 2015, Carney arrived at her new homeport of Naval Station Rota, Spain, after a 19-day transit from Naval Station Mayport. On 29 July 2016, Carney was called on to support the rescue of 97 migrants whose small inflatable watercraft was adrift in the water. The ship provided aid to the migrants until the arrival of a rescue ship, MS Aquarius. [12]

In August 2016, Carney took part in Operation Odyssey Lightning, serving as an escort ship to amphibious assault ship USS Wasp, whose aircraft carried out airstrikes on ISIS militants in Libya. Carney also fired illumination rounds from her 5-inch gun to help U.S.-backed Libyan ground forces fighting ISIS in Sirte. [13] Carney also conducted shore bombardments of ISIS targets with her 5-inch gun, firing 285 shells during the course of the deployment. [14]

In November 2016, Carney was deployed in Drapetsona port, Greece, to provide air cover for President Barack Obama's visit to Athens. [15] In late March 2017 Carney arrived at HMNB Clyde in Scotland in preparation for NATO Exercise Joint Warrior. [16]

On 17 February 2018, Carney joined USS Ross (DDG-71) in the Black Sea near Russia for an "unspecified regional proactive presence mission". The move followed increased tensions between Russia and the U.S. after American federal prosecutors announced indictments against 13 Russian citizens for their alleged interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign. [17]

2020–present

On 27 June 2020, Carney departed Rota, Spain, for her homeport shift to Mayport, Florida. [18]

On 8 October 2023, the day after the Hamas attack on Israel, U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin directed the Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group to the Eastern Mediterranean in response. Along with the carrier, the group includes the cruiser Normandy, and the destroyers Carney, Ramage, Roosevelt and Thomas Hudner. [19] From then until December 2023, the destroyer was at the forefront of operations to destroy Houthi drones and missiles in the Red Sea, as commercial vessels repeatedly came under attack by the Iran-allied Houthi militants in Yemen. [20]

On 19 October 2023, Carney intercepted three cruise missiles and eight drones fired by Houthi militants in Yemen. [5] [21] Although the targets were uncertain, the missiles and drones were shot down because they were headed north along the Red Sea in the direction of Israel amid rising tensions in the region during the 2023 Israel–Hamas war. [22] It was subsequently reported that Carney actually encountered a larger and more sustained barrage than was previously known on that day, shooting down four cruise missiles and 15 drones over a period of nine hours. [23]

On 29 November 2023, Carney shot down a KAS-04 drone launched from a Houthi-controlled area of Yemen in the Red Sea. [24] [25]

On 3 December 2023, Carney and civilian-owned commercial ships were attacked in international waters in the southern Red Sea, with anti-ship ballistic missiles fired from Yemen by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels. [26] [27] Missiles struck three commercial ships, while Carney shot down three drones in self-defense during the hours-long assault. [28] The United States Central Command said in a statement: "We ... have every reason to believe that these attacks, while launched by the Houthis in Yemen, are fully enabled by Iran." [28] [29]

On 16 December 2023 while operating in the Red Sea, Carney successfully shot down a barrage of 14 unmanned aerial system (UAS) one-way attack drones launched from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen. [30] [31] Vice Admiral Brad Cooper, head of U.S. 5th Fleet, subsequently visited the ship and presented combat medals to five sailors for their "exceptional performance" in the engagement. [20] Cooper also recognized the whole crew of the Carney with the Navy's Combat Action Ribbon, which is awarded when a sailor has “rendered satisfactory performance under enemy fire while actively participating in a ground or surface combat engagement". [20] Carney’s commanding officer, Commander Jeremy Robertson, and another sailor received Navy Commendation Medals from Cooper, and Robertson received a Bronze Star, while three other crew members received Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals. [20]

On 13 January 2024, Carney conducted follow-on action by firing Tomahawk cruise missiles at Houthi rebels in Yemen a day after the main strike package. [32] Later, Carney and other coalition ships responded to a strike by the Houthis on the British oil tanker MV Marlin Luanda on 26 January 2024. She arrived on scene a few hours after INS Visakhapatnam to render firefighting aid. [33] [34]

On 26 January 2024, Carney shot down an anti-ship ballistic missile fired by the Houthis in the Gulf of Aden. [35]

On 30 January 2024, Carney reportedly shot down an anti-ship ballistic missile fired by the Houthis in the Gulf of Aden with an SM-6 missile, marking the first publicly acknowledged SM-6 combat intercept by the DOD. [36]

On 5 March 2024, Carney shot down one anti-ship ballistic missile and three one-way attack unmanned aerial systems launched by the Houthis in the Red Sea. [37]

On 13–14 April 2024, Carney and USS Arleigh Burke shot down at least six Iranian ballistic missiles during the 2024 Iranian strikes in Israel. [38]

Carney returned to Naval Station Mayport on 20 May 2024 after a seven-month deployment and fifty-one Houthi Engagements. [39] During the course of her deployment, Carney participated in the second most amount of combat of any U.S. Naval ship since World War II.

Upgrades

On 12 November 2009, the Missile Defense Agency announced that Carney would be upgraded during fiscal 2012 to RIM-161 Standard Missile 3 (SM-3) capability in order to function as part of the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System. [42]

In 2016, four destroyers patrolling with the U.S. 6th Fleet based in Naval Station Rota, Spain, including Carney received self-protection upgrades, replacing the aft Phalanx CIWS 20mm Vulcan cannon with the SeaRAM 11-cell RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile launcher. The SeaRam uses the same sensor dome as the Phalanx. This was the first time the close-range ship defense system was paired with an Aegis ship. All four ships to receive the upgrade were either Flight I or II, meaning they originally had two Phalanx CIWS systems when launched. [43] [44] SeaRAM was first introduced to the Independence-class littoral combat ship. [45]

An anti-ship missile is a guided missile that is designed for use against ships and large boats. Most anti-ship missiles are of the sea-skimming variety, and many use a combination of inertial guidance and active radar homing. A large number of other anti-ship missiles use infrared homing to follow the heat that is emitted by a ship; it is also possible for anti-ship missiles to be guided by radio command all the way.
