Four Carriers

We have two carriers in the Central Command area plus another off of Australia.

And now another is heading for the Gulf region (tip to Mad Minerva):

The Navy confirmed the departure of nuclear-powered USS Enterprise from it's home port of Norfolk, Virginia, with about 5,500 sailors and marines.

Am I insane to note that we have the possibility of having four carriers massed near Iran depending on where the carriers at sea go (home or remain in range of Iran)?
