Norfolk is the largest naval base in the world as well as the principal base for the US Atlantic Fleet. Blogger Masterok has shared a series of incredible images showcasing the "lair" of US aircraft carriers and other naval vessels stationed at this iconic location.
Located near the Atlantic Ocean, southeast of Hepton-Rhodes Bay, Norfolk Naval Base is a colossal facility that houses at least 75 US Navy ships. This includes five nuclear-powered carriers and five aircraft carriers, making it a critical operational hub for the United States Navy.
The base falls under the jurisdiction of the United States Navy's Second Operational Fleet, which oversees the maritime region surrounding it. Covering an impressive area of over 26 square kilometers, the base's infrastructure is built to accommodate the largest warships in the fleet. Its approaches, with depths reaching nearly 14 meters, ensure accessibility for massive vessels.
