This $140 million system can stop a fighter jet in seconds. It is the cable on a carrier deck that catches aircraft as they land and holds them fast. High speed, total control. If you find this amazing, share it.

**Caption** This fighter jet pilot is strapped into the cockpit on a stormy aircraft carrier deck when the rain is absolutely hammering the canopy like someone turned a fire hose on it. He’s sitting there in full gear, hands on the controls, while the whole wet flight deck and ocean disappear behind sheets of water — then the catapult fires and the jet screams down the runway. The second it hits takeoff speed the rain vanishes instantly, blasted clean off the glass by nothing but raw airspeed like the jet just flipped a switch and said “wipers? We don’t need no stinkin’ wipers.” Would you ever climb into a jet and blast off a carrier in pouring rain like that? Or is this exactly why fighter pilots live in a different world from the rest of us?

Naval Aviators describe carrier landings ("traps") like landing on a postage stamp. Instead of flaring to land gently like commercial pilots, they fly the jet at a constant optimum angle of attack and intentionally slam it into the deck at high speed to ensure the tailhook catches an arresting wire. It's literally a controlled crash.

This is restored footage of a F6F Hellcat belly-landing on a carrier in 1944, with no landing gear, sliding down the deck. Watch what the crew does. They do not run away from the crashing plane. They run toward it. This is the story of the men on the deck.. A Controlled Crash Landing an aircraft on a carrier has been called one of the most difficult and dangerous things in all of aviation. Some pilots described it as a controlled crash. Think about what it involves. A fighter comes screaming toward a tiny strip of deck on a ship that is itself moving through the ocean, pitching on the swell. The pilot has only a few feet of margin. He has to slam his aircraft down onto a precise spot, at exactly the right speed and angle, again and again, every time he comes home. To stop the plane in the short space of the deck, each aircraft had a hook mounted under its tail. As it touched down, that tailhook had to catch one of several steel cables stretched across the deck, called arresting wires. The cable would snatch the speeding fighter and drag it to a halt in about two seconds. But what happened when it went wrong? When Things Went Wrong That is where the danger truly began. If a pilot came in with damaged landing gear, or no gear at all like the Hellcat in this footage, or if his tailhook missed every wire, the aircraft became a several-ton object sliding down a steel deck out of control. And the front of that deck was not empty. It was often packed with other aircraft, fueled and armed, and crowded with men working. A plane that slid all the way forward could plow straight into parked aircraft and deck crews, and turn the whole deck into an inferno. So the carriers had a last line of defense. A crash barrier, a wall of heavy steel cable raised across the middle of the deck, designed to catch a runaway aircraft and stop it before it reached the crowd at the bow. Time and again, that barrier was all that stood between one bad landing and a catastrophe. The Landing Signal Officer Guiding every one of those landings was one man in an incredibly exposed position. He was the Landing Signal Officer, and he stood on a small platform at the aft port side of the flight deck, close to where the aircraft came in. Holding a bright paddle in each hand, he signaled to each incoming pilot, telling him he was too high, too low, too fast, lined up wrong, or clear to land. The pilot trusted those paddles with his life. A good Landing Signal Officer could talk a shaken pilot and a shot-up aircraft safely down onto the deck. It was a job that demanded total calm and split-second judgment, over and over, with lives riding on every signal. One young officer who served as a Landing Signal Officer early in the war, David McCampbell, would go on to become the US Navy's top-scoring ace. The Men Who Ran Toward the Fire Then there were the men who ran toward the fire. The flight deck of a wartime carrier was a storm of spinning propellers, roaring engines, live bombs, high-octane fuel, and steel cables under enormous tension that could snap and cut a man in half. To manage the chaos, the crews wore jerseys in different colors, each color marking a job, so that in the deafening noise everyone could tell at a glance who did what. Men in one color directed the aircraft, another handled the arresting gear, another fueled the planes, another the bombs. And among them were the men in heavy asbestos suits, nicknamed the Hot Papas. Their job, when an aircraft crashed and burst into flames, was to run directly into the fire and pull the pilot out. That is what you are watching in this footage. As the Hellcat grinds to a stop, the men who rush toward it are not spectators. They are doing their job, closing on a possible fire and a trapped pilot without hesitating. The Forgotten Crew Landing accidents like this happened constantly. Belly landings, missed wires, barrier crashes, and deck fires were so common that they were simply accepted as part of the price of operating aircraft at sea. For every dramatic dogfight in the sky, there were thousands of these tense, dangerous moments on the deck, handled by young men in colored shirts who are almost never remembered. The pilots got the glory, and they earned it. But they could not have flown at all without the deck crews who launched them, guided them home, caught them when they came in wrong, and ran into the flames when it all went bad. The next time you see footage like this, do not just watch the plane. Watch the men around it. They worked one of the most dangerous jobs of the entire war, and most of the world never knew their names. This was the story of the carrier deck crews. I post a story like this every single day. Most people never see them. Follow so you don't miss the next one.

Now THIS is a cool rollercoaster 🔥 The Fighter Jet at Fantawild Glorious Orient, in Ningbo, is a Vekoma Top Gun Launch Coaster themed around an aircraft carrier takeoff launching to 97 km/h in 3 seconds, and the back row drags you off that carrier deck with noticeably more force than anywhere else on the train. This is the full back row POV showing how much more aggressive the launch and all 4 inversions feel from the last seat on one of the most uniquely themed coasters in China. This is one I’d do in a heartbeat.

A snapped carrier cable is a rare but extremely dangerous event. It can cause the aircraft to either bolter (fail to catch a cable and become airborne again) or, worse, risk rolling overboard into the sea. For the deck crew, the primary hazard is the possibility of a deadly whipping cable snapping back violently.

They just simply have goals." "If you treat them as people with values and you capitulate to having a moral or ethical understanding with them, the only reason they want that is so they can take advantage of you. It's so they can subvert you or use that value against you." "To the extent that you find yourself on the same side as them, you should be asking yourself why. You can never have shared values with these people. If it was up to them, you'd be in jail."

Despite having one of the largest navies, India avoids launching a sea-based attack on Pakistan mainly because of the high cost. A single Pakistani JF-17 fighter jet costs around 25 million dollars, while India’s aircraft carrier INS Vikrant is worth approximately 3.1 billion dollars. This means that for the price of just one aircraft carrier, Pakistan could acquire more than 120 fighter jets. Any damage to such a carrier would not only be a military setback for India but also a severe blow to its economy. This is why naval warfare is considered one of the most expensive and dangerous forms of conflict in the world.

📌 NBC News decided not to inform viewers about separate investigations from Reuters, CNN, and the New York Times that found a U.S. strike was likely responsible for hitting the school and killing 175 people, mostly children, in southern Iran. Here’s how they went about it instead: Moderator: President Trump said Iran is responsible for that strike. What is your response? FM Araghchi: “Well it is funny. It is our school. These are our students, our girls and they are attacked by an American fighter, a jet fighter and they have been killed. Why Iran is responsible? All evidences [sic] that this school is attacked by an American jet fighter.” Moderator: “Where is the Iranian evidence that this was a US attack? A jet fighter as you say. Will you provide?” FM Araghchi: “If it was not US then who was that? Maybe Israelis, but it is obvious. Who else is attacking us.” Moderator: “Well let me move on to this question about potential ground troops.”

An A-6E Intruder lands on USS America on February 16, 1991. After landing, the aircraft loses all braking power and is unable to stop, resulting in the two crew members ejecting from the aircraft. In the video you can see deck crew racing to grab the two crewmen as their inflated parachutes cause them to slide across the abrasive deck. Both crewmen will sustain minor injuries as a result of the incident. The Intruder is later pushed over the side of the ship and into the water by a small crane as returning aircraft from strike missions in Iraq were running low on fuel and needed to land on the carrier.

Everyone needs to hear this... Michael Caine on his defining philosophy for life: Use the Difficulty As a young actor, he was rehearsing a play when a chair got stuck in the door and blocked his path. He told the other actor he couldn't get by the chair to enter the scene. The actor's response: "Use the difficulty...if it's a comedy, fall over it, if it's a drama, pick it up and smash it." This idea became a defining mantra for his life. "There's never anything so bad that you cannot use that difficulty...if you can use it a quarter of one percent to your advantage, you're ahead, you didn't let it get you down." I can't stop thinking about this... How can you use the difficulty you're currently facing? How can you embrace the struggle? How can you find flow through the friction? As with everything in life, control the controllable: The difficulty is already there. You can't control it. But you can control how you react to it. You can control your response to it. You can control your attitude towards it. Lesson: Difficulty is inevitable. Use it.

BREAKING: China has carried out its first catapult-assisted launch and arrested landing drills aboard on an aircraft carrier. The Fujian is China’s 3rd aircraft carrier and first carrier with electromagnetic aircraft launch system (EMALS) catapults, which enable heavier payloads and higher sortie rates compared to the ski-jump ramps on its predecessors, Liaoning and Shandong. Footage shows J-15T and J-35 fighter jets taking off from the deck as well as KJ-600 AEW&C planes. The footage proves that China is now the second nation in the world (after the U.S.) operating an EMALS aircraft carrier. 🇨🇳🇺🇸
