The NVR site has just been updated. These are the Fleet #s you see quoted in the media whether updated or not. This list isnt updated until it receives the appropriate official paperwork from the proper source. Thats why it usually lags(sometimes many months) behind the actual events.

Two surprises for me:

1) AGF 11 USS Coronado has been removed from the Ship Battle Forces List
2) AO 188 USNS Joshua Humphries has been reactivated. Some reports say it isnt/wasnt to be reactivated until June. My understanding from USN planning was October.

Below is my slighly edited version:
