President Trump signed a new order on Thursday that calls for a fifth U.S. Naval shipyard. The White House says it would be the first built in more than 80 years, and will expand the U.S. Navy’s shipbuilding capacity. The changes are aimed at fixing long-standing problems in the Navy’s shipbuilding. President Trump's new order also instructs the Navy to replace some of its new tech, which he says is more expensive and less effective. Those include to return to the steam-powered catapults and hydraulic weapons elevators.

CENTcOM adding that the strike group aboard the USS Lincoln remain resilient after more than 260 days at sea.
