Fun fact - the jet seen here is the A-3D. It had no ejection seats for its 3 crew, so they "humourously" refered that A3D stood for "All 3 Dead". It was was the largest aircraft to ever operate from a US Navy carrier and nicknamed "Whale"

"LOOK MA, NO HOOK" - the crew painted this on the side of the C-130 after it landed, on USS Forrestal, making it the biggest aircraft ever to land on an aircraft carrier. This was on trials for a COD - Carrier Onboard Delivery type. Even though the operation was feasible, the Navy opted for a new, ground-up, smaller design, which became the C-2 Greyhound.

June 29 1960: A US Navy RA-3 crashes off Florida (US) all 3 crew die. While practicing landings on the carrier USS Saratoga, the arresting cable broke. With no means to stop safely, the plane went off deck. The crew attempted a go-around but were unable to, jet hit the sea at high speed and sank. The RA-3 was the photo-reconnaissance version of the A-3 “Skywarrior” bomber. The jet lost in the accident [144845] was attached to squadron VAP-62 (based at Fort. Lauderdale, Florida). The Jet´s wreckage was later discovered by chance by a film-making crew, who were producing a documentary on the Bermuda Triangle.

The mighty fin whale 🐋 The second largest, and the fastest whale on the planet. I’ve had this shot in my head for 3 years, with the dolphins bow riding in front, so getting this on Wednesday was incredible. Even more so, it was filmed here in the Celtic Sea. DJI

"CRAP! Wrong carrier!" The famous aborted Sukhoi Su-33 aborted aircraft carrier landing (no this isn´t AI or simulator, this video had been aroung long before that was a thing - in fact one of the first "viral videos" I´ve seen). Not sure of the inciden´t date, but likely early 90s, when the Soviet´s Navy (sole) aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov was still active. Note also how close the jet´s arresting hook was from catching one of the control cables: this guy was really lucky.

US sailors take a break and swim off an aircraft carrier. They use the torpedo nets to block off sharks. This was filmed in 1943 and most probably was the USS Saratoga. It was a morale booster for the sailors and gave them some much-needed fun during stressful times.

Fun Fact. The Chinese aircraft carrier, Fujian, became the first aircraft carrier in the world to launch 5th gen fighters using electromagnetic catapults. The American Ford class carrier have yet to do it with the F-35C, and may not do it for a while due to integration issues.

🇺🇸🚢📡 A US Navy CMV-22B aircraft was observed operating near the coast of Oman. Estimates suggest the aircraft departed from the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln. If accurate, this would indicate that the carrier is positioned near the Gulf of Oman and has entered the US Central Command area of responsibility.

In 1989, a highly classified underwater sound system designed by the United States Navy to track submarines picked up something unexpected. It was the song of a whale. But the frequency was wrong. Every known whale species communicates at a frequency between 10 and 39 hertz. This one was singing at 52. Researchers have tracked the same solitary animal migrating across the Pacific Ocean for decades. It follows no known whale migration route and travels alone. Because no other whale on earth communicates at that frequency, marine biologists believe it has spent its entire life calling out into the dark without ever being heard or answered. It has been named the 52 Hertz Whale. Some call it the loneliest animal on earth. Nobody has ever seen it.

🚨🇬🇧 Meanwhile on a British Aircraft Carrier Wow - you know Deep State Legacy Media are serious about WW3 when they wheel out a half dead King Charles to visit a Navy Aircraft Carrier all for a bit of promo. This is simply more wartime propaganda to get people in the mood for what comes next.

They were reports in the recent days that #Iran fired a missile at the USS Abraham Lincoln, & that the ship retreated to a safe distance away. WRONG… Our aircraft carrier was hit rendering it inoperable. Luckily, they were NO CASUALTIES, reported. Probably because it was empty. #IranUSwar

Folks, disregard the false narrative from the NDC that, the Ghanaian Presidential jet isn’t in a good shape, this is the jet in this video flapping its wings as it touched down at the PIA some few weeks ago, note, this flight after it was fully fixed by President Nana Addo has made long distance travels which includes, from Ghana to USA in September 2021, this goes long way to solidify and confirm the fact that, the Presidential jet is in good shape but Mahama just chose to ignore it for a luxurious jet just to satisfy his taste of extravagance. Again, disregard the lies peddled by Felix Ofosu kwakye, it is never true the President flew his brother’s jet at no cost, I strongly believe the jet was hired since Ibrahim Mahama isn’t a father Christmas to give out his private jet, fuel it, pay its landing and parking fee for the state, why? because his brother is the president? So Ibrahim is now paying for all this for the STATE? there is an Akan adage, which says “when the frog dies, we shall see it’s real length”.

Why the C-17 will never take off from an aircraft carrier—it’s not about power, but the complexity of the design and physics involved. The C-17 Globemaster is among the largest military aircraft ever built. Its wings span about 52 meters—longer than an Olympic pool—and it weighs as much as roughly 50 cars. An aircraft carrier’s deck is only about 300 meters long, while a C-17 needs nearly 2 kilometers to take off. Even with a catapult, it couldn’t reach the required speed. Its landing gear isn’t built for carrier landings, and its wings don’t fold like naval aircraft. It’s essentially like trying to launch a truck off a balcony—simply not possible.

BREAKING: An American fighter jet, most likely launched from the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the northern Arabian Sea, was spotted flying at low altitude over Chabahar in southeastern Iran. An interesting detail is that the aircraft was flying with all of its navigation lights illuminated despite operating at night. Local fishermen can be heard discussing the aircraft as it passed overhead. #OperationEpicFury
