English: Persian Gulf (Nov. 16, 2005) - The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) conducts a Close-in Weapons System (CIWS) live fire test in the Persian Gulf. CIWS is a fast-reaction, rapid-fire 20-millimeter gun system that provides U.S. Navy ships with a terminal defense against anti-ship missiles that have penetrated other fleet defenses. Roosevelt and embarked Carrier Air Wing Eight (CVW-8) are currently underway in the Persian Gulf supporting Operation Steel Curtain, a joint U.S.-Iraqi military offensive aimed at preventing cells of Al Qaeda from entering Iraq through the Syrian border.
