Gerald Ford's fire was caused by Iranian missile strike.

600 sailors were grounded due to smoke. US Navy claimed that fire originated in the dryer vent of the ship's laundry spaces. Another claim was that the fire was caused by crew who did not want to fight the Iran War. The fire raged for 30 hours racing through the ship's 21 interconnected ventilation trunks, electrical busways and HVAC ducts. This is consistent with damage caused by missile warheads detonating below the waterline. This coincided with timing of Iranian missile salvos on March 11 triggering the Gerald Ford's withdrawal despite claimed mission capable status; and the retaliatory strike by the US on Iran's anti-ship missile launchers near Bandar Abbas.
