battle group
Warship task force
A battle group is a temporary military formation assembled for a specific mission, typically combining different unit types—infantry, armor, artillery, and support elements—under unified command.
In naval usage, a battle group centers on a major warship, usually an aircraft carrier, surrounded by escorts and support vessels: The carrier battle group deployed to the Mediterranean.
