The Navy has not had a confirmed Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) since February 21, marking a historic gap that could hinder strategic decisions and operations. Adm. James Kilby serves as the acting CNO, but experts express concern about the impact of this vacancy on Navy priorities and efficiency. Lack of a Senate-confirmed leader may stall key decisions and create additional strain on the acting leadership, which can affect the entire service's momentum and operational effectiveness.
It's not good to be operating without a CNO.
CNO provides the course that all other Navy flags follow.
