Vision
An Indo-Asia-Pacific maritime domain where the established and
enduring international framework of norms, standards, rules, and laws
is preserved.
Mission
To advance Indo-Asia-Pacific regional maritime security and enhance
stability in support of Commander, U.S. Pacific Command by being where
it matters, when it matters, with what matters to decisively prevail
in all contingencies from war to peace.
Guiding Principles
In executing our mission, U.S. Pacific Fleet forces at all levels
and ranks will plan, operate, and assess their activities in a manner
that is:
Thoughtful…rather than rash
Consistent…rather than erratic
Firm…rather than rigid
Patient…rather than reactionary
Commander’s Intent
We focus and align our efforts to:
- Preserve a resilient workforce:
Proactively value our military and civilian Sailors and their
families by demanding behavior that reflects our values of honor,
courage, and commitment and rejecting behaviors that place
individuals at risk or treat them with anything less than dignity
and respect.
- Be ready to fight: Man, train, equip and
maintain the Fleet to support maritime and joint
operations.
- Reinforce the international order:
Advance and strengthen the network of regional naval forces
committed to supporting international law and ensuring a stable
maritime domain.
- Lead credibly: Clearly convey intent and
resolve through coherent and consistent words and
actions.
- Embrace opportunity: Enhance capabilities
through new tactics and operational concepts — leveraging
Sailor intellect always and technology where sensible.
- Project power: Posture forward physically
and mentally to deter and, if required, defeat potential
foes.
Outcomes
Focusing our efforts in these ways will ensure that:
- USPACFLT forces are positioned and postured to respond to
crises, operating confidently across the region.
- USPACFLT forces operate together with other components,
allies, partners, and friends in the maritime domain.
- USPACFLT forces are enabled by an innovative and resilient
culture that empowers USPACFLT sailors to overcome adversity and
offset resource constraints.
- USPACFLT forces are capable of defeating adversary naval
forces.
