Summary[edit]

Description
English: Arabian Gulf (Mar. 5, 2004) – Aviation Ordnanceman 3rd Class Johnpaul Figueroa, of Virginia Beach, Va., checks GBU-12 laser guided bomb units before loading them on an F/A-18C Hornet assigned to the “Wildcats” of Strike Fighter Squadron One Three One (VFA-131) aboard USS George Washington (CVN 73). The GBU-12 Paveway II bomb series are 500 pound “smart weapons” that follow a laser beam to a target which is illuminated by either an aircraft or a laser designator operator on the ground. The Norfolk, Va.-based nuclear powered aircraft carrier and its Carrier Strike Group (CSG) are on a scheduled deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF).
