随着与伊朗的战争持续,一支约2200名海军陆战队员和三艘军舰组成的第二海军陆战队远征部队正前往中东。
两名美国官员表示,该部队本周早些时候离开加利福尼亚州。来自太平洋地区的第一支部队仍在前往该地区的途中,而第二支部队可能需要几周时间才能部署到位。
曾被部署到日本的两栖攻击舰”的黎波里”号(USS Tripoli)是第一支部队的一部分。它是最新的两栖军舰,被称为”大甲板”型,可容纳更多F-35隐形战斗机、鱼鹰运输机和其他飞机。

2nd Marine Expeditionary Unit of around 2,200 Marines, 3 warships headed to Middle East as Iran war continues
2026-03-20 / CBS News
A second Marine Expeditionary Unit of about 2,200 Marines and three warships is headed toward the Middle East, as the war with Iran continues.
The unit departed California earlier this week, according to two U.S. officials. The first one, which is coming from the Pacific, is still making its way toward the region, and this second unit may take a few weeks to be in place.
The USS Tripoli, an amphibious assault ship that had been deployed to Japan, is part of the first group. It’s the most updated of the amphibious warships, known as a “big deck,” which allows more room for F-35 Stealth Fighter Jets, Ospreys and other aircraft.
An Amphibious Ready Group-Marine Expeditionary Unit was last used when the USS Iwo Jima was involved in the operation removing Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro from power. The group is also involved in drug interdiction and oil cargo ship interception and remains deployed in the Caribbean.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
