The Storis is America’s first polar icebreaker in 25 years. It is a symbol of our country’s renewed commitment to defend our Homeland in the Arctic under President Trump. As a medium polar icebreaker, Storis expands the U.S. operational presence in the Arctic and will support U.S. Coast Guard missions while awaiting the delivery of the new Polar Security Cutter class.

The Arctic is warming almost 3 times faster than the rest of the planet 😟 A warmer Arctic accelerates global heating, rise in sea levels, loss of ecosystems, and more. 🌡 RT if you want greater climate action! #cop28
