U.S. Pacific Fleet Could Shift After Korean War Ends
President Truman said the American fleet off Formosa will move out when the Korean conflict ends, prompting questions on future Pacific naval deployments. The Pacific fleet remains the largest since World War II, with 150 plus ships including two carriers, cruisers, destroyers, submarines, and support craft. The buildup began before the war, with ships from the Atlantic moving west, and Admiral Sherman aimed to expand Pacific forces. Primary roles in Korea include aerial support, naval gunfire, and protecting UN supply lines, plus submarine patrols and strategic strikes on North Korean targets. North Korea’s navy is limited, but its ally Russia supplies submarines.
