- Rare Event: A German Navy Frigate Is Replenished-At-Sea By A Gigantic American Nimitz-class Supercarrier.
Official release: Atlantic Ocean (July 4, 2018) The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) conducts a replenishment at sea with German Navy frigate FGS Hessen (F221). Harry S. Truman is currently deployed as part of an ongoing rotation of U.S. forces supporting maritime security operations in international waters around the globe.

And thank you, once again, for visiting the Ultimate Military Channel.
I was in the German Navy. On longer trips without going into harbors, nobody shaves the beard. It is a tradition...
Bavariman that's fucking awesome. One question tho. Germany is a VERY beautiful country with the countryside and all that. So why in the world would anyone join the navy lol. That's just my opinion. I love the ocean and water just like anyone. But that south german countryside man
I am grown up in the beautiful mountains, so the sea is something very different. That is why I joint the navy and I had a great time. The sea is also beautiful and to visit other beautiful countries is great (and you get paid for the trip)... 😉😀
Bavariman that's true there my friend. I wonder how beautiful your home town is if you see it in flight! I'm currently joining the U.S. Coast Guard, hopefully i'll be stationed in florida. That water is beautiful.
Well if you grow up on the coast like me the ocean is like a second home ;)
There's a problem with those beards.
During the Vietnam war the Navy experimented with letting the men grow beards. Then ... they had some fires on board ... which were really bad ... and the oxygen masks the damage control people were supposed to wear - wouldn't seal. After that - no more beards.
There was a certain Austrian Corporal who got gassed in WWI because he had a big mustache that wouldn't allow his gas mask to seal. After that - he had a much smaller mustache.

ich lach mich grad tod :D:D:D
Lethal looking frigate and professional looking sailors. Glad they are our allies.
Norman1951 Norman aren't destroyers used as anti- submarines, and escorts?
VitalSTRATS FGS Hessen is basically a destroyer, with great AAW capabilities. The germans call it frigate nonetheless.
Germany doesn't want to have destroyers. So they build destroyers and call it frigates.
Germany is building a new ship (Codename "MKS 180"), which is literally a cruiser but surprise:
Its called frigate/Multi-role combat ship
We should start to build a carrier and call it frigate with airforce capabilities ;)
German sailors looked so sailory.
Be careful though,looks can be deceiving.
german sialorgirl you mean.At least in Greece we know who they are....Girls with sailor jersey.
They are supposed to be so. Manly, Brave, Girl chasing party hounds. 😁
Tradition. No shaving on deployment ;)
Those sailors been kicking ass in submarines in the 40s
Love how the german saliors have beards
! ..seawolfs ;)
you can have one in the Royal Navy but first you have to prove that you can grow a proper one first
Its common fashion in Europé
Sailors in the Royal New Zealand Navy can also have beards with approval if you can grow one properly.
Don't bother trying to tell him that, he's a Wehraboo who only likes it if it's on an Aryan.
I think this was the German ship that took part in Opsail 2012 and was docked at Nauticus near the Wisconsin. Awesome looking ship. The crew were friendly and quite proud of her.
Can confirm. We had an awesome time in the US. Thanks again for having us 👍🏻
Hans !
*What do you mean they gave us 50 different flavors of cereals, we needed Diesel Hans ! Diesel ! Not Peanutbutter Cinnamon Chocolate Crunch*
good one.
Man, that one hurt a little bit. Cereal variety has severely decreased over that last two decades here in Germany. I'd kill for some Apple Jacks or Honey Loops.
Hans? Guys was named Hans 50 years ago.
@@deineMutter9019 Take it easy Fritz...
@@ThePotatoSmash my name is Timo you scumbag
To those bashing the seaman with the makup. She has earned an enlisted surface warfare pin. Not exactly an easy feat. You must know every aspect of the ships capabilities. Thats a ton of knowledge to retain and ive seen second class petty officers who never earned that pin. Who fucking cares what she looks like.. She's obviously a dedicated sailor. Plain and simple.
I have great respect for people with high skills. Which doesn't prevent me from thinking she is pretty. I see no conflict there.
André Bartels I’m a year late but all the comments are about the beards
@@jonathanmeza6527 try and read again
Calm down their shipmate. If you’ve been on a boat the last 10 years, especially a boat like the Truman with as many hook ups and politics as there are, then you know warfare pins aren’t what they used to be. Today you just get your books, make connections to get them signed off, and then get the board questions off of someone and regurgitate answers. It’s not hard to get a pin anymore.
@@randomrandomnesss2188 Well it was in my day. 🤦♂️🤷♂️ Navy's gone soft :/
German warship; Over 8000tons
Also German warship: “frigate”
Lightweight compared to the Zumwalt
Nemo99 Nemo same with Zumwalt, 16000t “destroyer” meanwhile cruisers are only 10000+ tons
Next SHip is slighly bigger and will called Bismarck ll. With 42.000 Tons it will be a Frigate
@@thelastprussian6491 Nah, it will be a Carrier. Just because we never finished the last one. ;) Tbh huge warships don't have a real future.
@@christians6633 frigate with planes
I was there but I was on one of the destroyer escorts. The Hessen had a good group of sailors on her. They gave us patches to commemorate our exercises.
Ahh yes, patch trading. We also did that with every foreign crew we could find. Whenever we visited a ship we took a bunch of patches with us and asked the crew if they wanna trade patches for patches.
Sachsen Class... This Frigate is Destroyer Class and one of the best and powerful in the World!! this coorperation with the American Navy makes me proud. Very nice Supercarrier!! Greeting from Germany. God bless you all...
Those beards on the German sailors....makes them "more German" Love it!
dbanaga I know, SUPER manly right!
It‘s an old tradition that German sailors doesn’t shave their beards while on the ship
they look they are ready to go convoy raiding.
yes, because Germany is so Muslim that everyone has beards
@@bastianarnhardt1069 Not really ;-)
This is one of the strongest surface combat ship that has ever built. A highly formidable naval vessel in a modern day Navy power.
destroyer in disguise
@@thedictationofallah not really with “only” 5700t displacement, but probably the best anti-aircraft frigate worldwide! Love that class
@thinksnitch the displacement is not really important when classifying a ship as a destroyer or frigate. It's more about the capabilities. A frigate is usually built for a certain role like asw or aaw while a destroyer is a multi role combat ship. The f124 class is capable of fighting submarines, surface ships and aircrafts/missiles so it fits more in the criteria of a destroyer than a frigate.
And it nearly incinerated itself by firing its own missile. Edit: It was the Sachsen, my mistake.
Good looking ship!
OMG it's Robert Suhrer! I'm such a big fan of yours😲
It acutally looks quite modern. I didnt even know that we had such vessels :D
This will not happen in 3 days, because the French Army gets stuck in traffic on german Autobahn 2 :-)
@Antonio Bandini 3 days? What have you smoked?
Get your facts right, most of what you said is bullshit.
German and nordic warriors wear beard!
It is a tradition in the german navy and mountain division to wear beard.
Greetings from a mountain division soldier.
That explains my one teachers thick full beard and weird streak of authority, that actually worked on us bastards back then. He was a drill seargent of those for some years before he became teacher. And he had the loudest voice of the entire school.
the north sea/north atlantic and mountains have rough and cold weather.
a beard helps with insulation and keeps your face from freezing.
also shaving produces waste that cant be disposed off easily on a ship.
Gebirgsjaeger? That kind of mountain troop?
Incredible to think that a little more than 75 years ago we would have been shooting at them. 🙁 I much prefer this type of encounter.
Well back then Germany was a fascist nation full of scumbags à la North Korea so please do it again if it happens another time.
@@Leon_der_Luftige as a german, yeah, if we act up again feel free to shoot at us. No war crimes tho pls.
@@Leon_der_Luftige as another german, i agree
@Pira Pira Not really. The "clean Wehrmacht myth" is simply wrong.
The Luftwaffe was the worst pool of Nazi-Scumbags.
Generally speaking of course.
Or why do you you think did the Wehrmacht contribute in rounding up the Polish and other innocent people shot them for no reason?
@Pira Pira It would be easier to find out who wasn't a Nazi than to tell who was.
they look like WW2 Uboat crews
Because that's what you know from the movies?
They look like normal German soldiers.
@@levoGAMES Perhaps because WW2 U-boat crews were also German sailors?
@@levoGAMES no they don't look anything like German soldiers. They would be sailors. As for U-Boat crews its mainly the beards and the head gear which has not changed much with the German navy over the years.
Another u boat maniac, I presume. Ahahahah It Is the first thing I thought!
it is a tradition not to shave during long voyages. it was the same during the second world war and not only on the submarines but on all ships of the navy and today's navy.
To name that a frigate is just plain understatement..thats a full fledge destroyer
Germany doesn't want to have destroyers. So they just keep building destroyers and name them frigates. Same way how these /watch?v=6_4fjWCcIzk are speedboats.
Amazing how one German dude pulled over the whole aircraft carrier.
Yes, his name is Hans!
What a sleek and sharp looking ship!
unfortunately a bit underarmed
@@Keckegenkaibro.....

One thing I really like about the German military is their hats.
i was in the german airforce..... until you are officer ranks, your hat is the so called "Schiffchen" . that thing really sucks.
@@billy5179 you should be proud of your schiffchen, as rugged as possible, shows experience.
@@janeymers7154 i was. I was proud to wear my Uniform. :) Didn't make the thing any bedder. :)
Does this count as a port of call? Because of '"4.5 Acres of Sovereign American Territory".
You know the german F-124 Class Hamburg is the only ship in the world to be part of a US Aircraft Carrier Group? We replaced a Burke Class Destroyer ;)
Deathsnake Very cool. 🇺🇸🇩🇪
Deathsnake OUTSTANDING!
Deathsnake what about the two type 23 frigates from the UK and the the Norwegian frigate that joined the USS George Washington's group a couple of months ago?
Mr, I found my soul mate

Fine looking ship. Good to see two NATO countries conducting routine operations together.
*This is so beautiful* Proud Sailors just like us! 😁😁😁
The German guys look like true sailors with those beards.
The German ship is the Hessen, English name is Hessia. Should sound familiar to anyone familliar with the battle of trenton.
German destroyer: ‘hallo! Können wir bitte ein paar Dinge haben?’
Super carrier: ‘sure fam, come get y’all juice’
Our Sachsen is a 6.000tons Frigate and in my eyes a very pretty ship with really good and special skills.
Seebären par excellence.
Bears of the sea, that's what we call rugged sailors in German.
A salute from India. 🙏
A salute from Australia!
Very cool
Thanks Mike!
That German skipper at 2:40 tho...dude just exudes navy with that beard and hat, overall look actually...
Notice the audio interference and its correlation to the spinning phased array.....
well that's a big fat phased array aquisition radar
I work for an outfit that makes RAS/FAS equipment. Cool to see it working between naval partners. Though the receiver on the German ship must be very low. I'm not used to seeing the highline angled like that!
Smart looking Frigate.
I never realized how tall the flight deck of the carrier is, really towers over the ship.
Carriers are giants. And the German frigates are build to be small weapon platforms.
@Emanuel D Partly wrong. The french navy doesn't use the designation "destroyer". All destroyer-like ships are called frigates aswell. It's more or less a tradition.
Its appx. 100 feet from the waterline to the flightdeck

Nice ship...i love that!!..
*me seeing a German battleship*
me:why do I hear Bismarck by sabaton?
XD
German beareded sailors, what sailors SHOULD look like :P
2:06 is that aubrey plaza?
Hello here izzz zeee Tschörman Navi!
Love how the German sailors were in awe of the super carrier.
I was expecting them to share some beers and have some fun
adrian This is a professional action between to Allied warships, its all business.
Why would you use a supercarrier as replenisment ship?
Had the mail been air-delivered? Or did the carrier crew need an exercise in formation sailing?
Looks like a guided-missile destroyer.
It is but we call it frigate anyway.
We should also grow our bread on this coronavarius days as the navy
Did they get their hefferveisen ration?
👍👍nice video...
Incredible coordination by both helmsmen!
Nice
I want that big flat TV that rotates in my living room now!!
I'll take two of them!
Where can I order?
Thanks.
Dang, Alison looking fine today :D
wonder ow long it took the two lady sailors to put their make up on for the photo shoot. Sharp looking German shop. The crew looked almost like they did in WW-II
John Moore Ohh not d ww2 talk again Lol
I also found that bizarre. Why would a sailor doing a job need makeup? Would a man be allowed to wear makeup on duty?
Women are not treated the same in the military. They can wear make up. They have maternity uniforms (since at any one point in time 25% of them are pregnant), they get maternity leave and are reassigned to shore duty.

Great video by Italian Navy 👍
2:41 Herr Kaleun is back!
Kaleu plz, though I think it's a frigate captain
That’s incredible, I didn’t know the Kreigsmarine still had ships that could put to sea and aren’t tied up to a dock.
Still pretty cool though. The Germans are good, they just don’t get the funding they need.
Our ships are basically at sea all the time and particpating in several NATO missions.
The Kriegsmarine was dissolved in 1945.
Crap you’re right they did change the name, my mistake.
I was reading just the other week Germany’s last operational attack submarine suffered mechanical problems just after putting to sea and had to put back to port. No ETA on when she’ll put back to sea and all six attacks subs of the Deutsche Marine are now unable to go to sea. I’ve heard readiness problems like that are endemic in the German military, from aircraft to vehicles in a specific unit ready to go to the field.
I have nothing but respect for the German military but then I read how some politicians in Berlin want to FURTHER slash their defense budget. I think Merkel is doing what she can and makes a good point about incremental defense spending. I’d personally like to see a slightly stronger German military.
Found an article on Janes defense today. The German Navy’s only two tankers capable of at-sea replenishment are unavailable from wear and tear and engine problems.

Rimasta1 most articles are copies of German Media articles that really shows everything worse as it is. Best example was the G36. Media was like :
" it cant hit anything" and soldiers where like "huh?"
Truly a rare event indeed!
Nooo they are here to steal our beer. Go away germans, our beer!
Alucard Hellsing
Germans wouldn't even think of stealing American beer.
American beer is like those 2 navy ships. Damned close to water. ;)
Maybe they will not pump fuel from the carrier to the frigate, but German beer from the frigate to the carrier, so that the friends over there can finally get something reasonable to drink. Drinking US beer is torture and is a violation of human rights (lol).
Probally they just work together, like allies should do. Not what the comments show... but at least the military do it.
this is a Tradition. german man in navy. to grow your bears!!!
Grow those bears!
🎶 in the navy!
You can sail the seven seas!🎶
We are Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Airmen! We all swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States of America against all enemies both foreign and domestic! We are men and women who follow orders whether or not we want to. You take that oath and maybe you’ll understand!
That's not different in Germany. We are all in an alliance that in case of emergency, it has to work like an army.
Wow,that's is a big ship 😎
I think the most interesting thing about that was the women drivers eyebrows 😉
Stocking up on Twinkies and preparation H.
White cap is the skipper. Classic german tradition..
Impressive video :)
great video ;)
Why isn't the German navy bigger than it is?
Why doesn't the German navy have large aircraft carriers?
Are they restricted in some way post WW2?
Why would Germany want aircraft carriers?
During the Cold War the front line was the German border, there’s no point for aircraft carriers if your only real potential enemy is next door...
West Germany had at the end of the Cold War around 40 fast attack crafts (with Exocet missiles as their primary armament), a whole bunch of mine hunters (if I‘m not mistaken around 70), 20 attack submarines, some destroyers and frigates.
The German Navy also had 112 Panavia Tornado fighter-bombers of its own for anti-shipping operations.
Of course with the end of the Cold War the need for a large navy vanished and the focus shifted from fighting the Baltic Fleet of the Soviet Union and its allies to peacekeeping and fighting piracy...
Only restriction to weaponry is a ban on nuclear weapons coming from Germany being a signatory of the UN Nuclear non-proliferation treaty. This also includes nuclear propulsion technology on warships. So theoretically we could build an Aircraft Carrier as long as it is not powered by a nuclear reactor.
At the moment Germany has no strategic need for its own carriers.
Germany kind of restricted itself by saying their miltary is only for defense purposes. Also, many german people dont want Germany to spend money on the military, so the budget is too low and every single bigger acquisition of the Bundeswehr has to be approved by the parliament.
Be safe
NATO! Keep flexing your muscles!
NATO cut down every members soldiers in duty and vehicles to be used. Fucking bullshit. And then they told you to defend yourself with fucking 10 000 soldiers. US brain in work. . .
Keep flexing your moustaches
Urdnot Wrex Germany doesn’t have 10k soldiers.

am i seeing things right or is that german ship flying an american flag?
AM I the only one thinking it strange the T&D is on the forecastle?
where else to put it? on the bridge? on the helipad? its next to the to the station to fill the tanks. which are located below the bridge in the center of the ship. balance and stuff. german support ships are no carriers so we dont need to put it higher so the forecastle is pretty much the only place which makes sense. don*t know where you comin from but please don't judge something you clearly have no idea about or failed to inform yourself.

is it just me or the navy ships from all the countries nowadays just look the same?
...this Frigate is dangerous as fuck. It is known that the big gun there can fire over 80 km at least, and exact, the real range is a secret...insider say it is the longest range of a ship gun ever....
