| Description |
English: The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Independence (CV-62) underway in the eastern Mediterranean, 20 December 1973. Independence, with assigned Carrier Air Wing 7 (CVW-7), was deployed to the Mediterranean Sea from 21 June 1973 to 19 January 1974. During that cruise, she served as the test ship for the "CV-concept", which integrated the anti-submarine squadrons (HS/VS) of the anti-submarine carriers (CVS) into the carrier air wing of the former attack carriers (CVA). Therefore, Independence was the first attack carrier to be redesignated "CV" from "CVA" on 28 February 1973. |
