The ship was returning to her home port after deployment in the Gulf. The delegation flew from the Bandaranaike  International Airport, Colombo in a C 2 transport/ rescue aircraft and  landed on the USS Carl Vinson approximately 225 nm off the coast of Sri  Lanka. She was moving to Hawaii with the Carrier Battle Group 1. The delegation was received onboard by the  Commanding Officer Captain Karl O. Thomas and Rear Admiral Christopher  Grady, the Commander Carrier Strike Group 1. After discussing the areas of mutual interest and  visiting the ship, the delegation witnessed the versatility of its  striker aircraft with combat maneuver exercises and also the exercises  by the Anti-Submarine Warfare helicopters and the capabilities of her  rescue aircraft. Through the stunning and bearing maneuvers by the  onboard aircraft, the ship amply demonstrated her inherent capabilities  to carry out missions required to ensure supremacy of air power in any  battle space. It also displayed the ability to deliver the right balance  and presence necessary to carry out missions in the present day war  theatre. The visit can be considered as a leap in the  relationship with the two Navies and will certainly help ensure further  cooperation in the field of maritime security. It also reflects the  confidence the two countries have in facing common threats together.</blockquote>
