CTF-67

Commander, Task Force 67 (CTF-67) is a United States Navy task force responsible for maritime patrol and reconnaissance operations, primarily in the U.S. Sixth Fleet area of operations, which encompasses Europe and Africa. Established during the Cold War, CTF-67 played a crucial role in anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and intelligence-gathering missions, particularly in the Mediterranean Sea. Over the years, the unit has operated a variety of aircraft, including the P-3 Orion and, more recently, the P-8A Poseidon, to support alliance commitments and regional security. Today, CTF-67 remains a key element in U.S. and NATO efforts to monitor and deter maritime threats across southern Europe and North Africa.
