The two new aircraft carriers under current Secretary of Navy Carlos Del Toro picked the new names as part of his duties, according to Navy Officials, although the announcement was made by the White House.
The two vessels honor Bill Clinton, 42nd President of the U.S. who served two terms from 1993 to 2001, and George W. Bush, 43rd President of the U.S. who served two terms from 2001 to 2009. “President Clinton and President Bush led the U.S. through some of the most challenging moments in U.S. history,” said Secretary Del Toro.
“Their legacies will endure through these aircraft carriers, which serve as formidable platforms dedicated to safeguarding our national security and strengthening our resolve to protect this Nation against any who would threaten our freedoms and way of life.”

It has pledged to send another six SLM/SLS to Ukraine over next 2 years, as well as two more of the Patriots. Diehl Defence is the general contractor for Iris-T SLM, delivers launcher & the missiles.
