1989 United States Navy order of battle
In 1989, the United States Navy was on the verge of massive cuts to military spending cuts including ship and aircraft procurement.[1] These forces were expected to fight the Soviet Union, Warsaw Pact and other potential adversaries in case of a war breaking out. At this time, the USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) of the Pacific Fleet was out of commission for Service Life Extension Program (SLEP) modernization[2] leaving the 3rd Fleet with less carriers.
