Coral Sea (July 3, 2005) -- The conventionally-powered aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63) prepares to pull into Sydney, Australia, after completing combined exercise Talisman Sabre with the Australian Defence Force Joint Operations Command. This is the first time Kitty Hawk has had a port-of-call in Sydney since 2001. Kitty Hawk is conducting its summer underway period in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), demonstrating power projection and sea control as the world's only permanently forward-deployed aircraft carrier, operating from Yokosuka, Japan.
