That may mean that Turkey hasn't granted overflight rights and the Navy is moving ships so that they can launch aircraft over Saudia Arabia.

the news story mentioned that these were ships carrying Cruise Missiles-the US already has a number of Carrier Battle Groups in and around the Persian Gulf-not to mention the Big Ugly Fat Fellows (B-52's) on Diego Garcia.
