The aircraft with a disc (radar) on top is an AWACS (Airborne Warning and Control System). It's a flying radar station (eye in the sky) supplying data to other aircraft, particularly when obstacles (such as mountains) are in the way, or they are not oriented on said enemy targets. It sees and identifies both, airborne, and ground threats, as well as any other aircraft in the sky.
Crew on these beasts is 6K+. They are regularly resupplied, while at sea, with food, fuel (for onboard equipment and aircraft), and other supplies. The carrier, itself, is good for at least 20 years, before returning to a shipyard for refueling, and any other retrofits, maintenance, and update modifications. Water is filtered and purified by onboard systems.
Alright, so to calculate the G force: The top speed on takeoff is 165mph or about 270kph. 270,000÷3600 gives us 75 meters per second. We divide that number by the number of seconds spent accelerating (2) which leaves us with an acceleration of 37.5 meters per second squared. The force of gravity is about 9.8 meters per second squared so the takeoff would be about 3.5G.
@@jreyman I am damn sure that every link is not painted only those links visible when the anchor is fully housed, brought aboard, then the chain will be pretty and shiny. Anchor chain is measured in shots with one shot being 90 feet. Every 90' on the chain one link is painted red with the first shot marked by one white link to either side of the red link. The second shot, one red link with two white links to either side of the red.
The Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers are conventionally powered - diesel and gas turbine. All of the American amphibious assault ships are conventionally powered.
F-35B to be exact...has a STOVL (Short Take Off Vertical Landing) system like the Harrier did, except the F-35 actually has a massive fan behind the cockpit while the single engine nozzle can pivot down 90 degrees as well. It can take off vertically, however the jet exhaust tends to do a lot of damage to the asphalt and it puts a lot more wear on the fan to provide the initial lift, so they prefer to do short takeoffs.
@@DiamondPaintWithDiamondDave Yessir, I didn't think the specifics were necessary, but doesn't hurt. Ironically, as a Grunt, the only time I got placed into custody was at the New River A.S. E-Club. Fun times.
Pretty sure our aircraft carriers are the fastest ships at sea. There is video of them at full bore dusting others ships. Also them turning at that speed looks bananas 😂😂😂
Peak g forces for a steam catapult launch are about 4g. It may be similar or less with a launch using an electromagnetic launch system (EMALS) like on the Ford-class aircraft carriers.
Can you react to the video of USS Carney? Spent 6 months deployed in the Red Sea protecting commercial ships from kamikaze drones and missiles fired by Houthi rebels.
Harriers have been out of British service since 2011. USMC Harriers are to be retired by 2026. Italy and Spain will continue to fly thiers with Italy expected to replace them with the F-35B as well.
When we did strikes in Iraq off the Kitty Hawk in JAN92 we emptied the deck in less than an hour...every working jet. 1 bow cat, followed by 1 waist cat, then the second bow cat followed by second waist cat...just kept alternating like that until they were all gone...while one is launching, another is moving onto the previous cat to wait it's turn so there was no slowdown...watching that many jets leave fully loaded out knowing they can't recover with most of that armament still attached is quite the feeling...someone is about to have a really bad day!
I just posted the same thing about Growler Jams RUclips channel and then I saw your comment. I deleted it. I really like Growler Jams channel. GO NAVY! BEAT ARMY!
Knowing you are from the UK, I took the liberty of translating some units in this video for you. The aircraft carrier weight of 90,000 tonnes translates to about 14200000 stone. Hope this helps. ;)
I think you should combine the two can designs but instead of the wording inside the mushroom circle it’s like the right can alongside and over the top of the mushroom
I wonder how these are set up for self defense. What exactly would it take to sink one of these things? I know they never go out alone, and likely have many systems to detect incoming whatever, but ... I wonder what it can withstand if something gets through.
The plane with the radar array on top is a Grumman E-2C Hawkeye. It's an Airborne Early Warning [AEW] aircraft. The lack of AEW cost the RN dearly during the Falklands War.
Ice is the worst on the anchor chain. You get a couple guys with sledgehammers that beat the crap out of the chain as it comes up to knock the ice off.
"10-15 hours a day?!" When we were in the Persian Gulf on the Kitty Hawk during the early '92 air strikes, we were working 22 on, 2 off launching planes round the clock...
It's not 80 aircraft, it's 90 with emergency capabilities up to 130 aircraft. There are 11 Super Carriers and 9 Amphibious Carriers = 20 Carriers total. Amphibious Carriers can carry 35-40 aircraft! It's not 90,000 tons It's 107,000!!
Think about how many rolls of toilet paper they go through. Makes you wonder if there’s a ration system in place, like “use only 4 square, officer will check and confirm before flush” 😂
we never had to ration toilet paper, however, the carrier makes/recycles its own water, so in boot camp they teach you how to shower to conserve water. Get in, get wet, shut off water, soap up, turn on water and rinse, done...repeat steps to wash hair if necessary, however hair is so short that usually can be done in the soap up phase as well...side note: aircraft carrier water can sometimes smell like diesel fuel on the conventionally powered ships due to the water storage/recycling systems are sometimes located right next to the fuel tanks, just separated by a single bulkhead...
I have a channel recommendation for you, it's in German, but he makes videos about the individual branches of the German Bundeswehr. The channel is called DEXHEIMER.
The anchor, me boy, is what keeps a ship in one place if not tied to a pier. Nimitz class carrier is about 1100 ft long by 90 ft wide and about 110 ft high from waterline to flight deck and displaces 100,000 tons. And you wonder why the anchor weighs above 45,000 pounds and requires an anchor chain 1100 feet long?!
So he was only saying that there were 80 F-18 hornets that doesn’t mention the multiple helicopter osprey radar planes, which was that one with the big disc on top or dimension, amphibious landing boats that sort of stuff. There are way more than 80 aircraft on that.
@@kylehansen4511 when I made my comment I came up with a question that I had no idea how to answer. How did you keep the links from sticking together when the links would bend? In my controls experience the only thing I ever had to paint was outboard motors.
I don't think that this man was a marine. he doesn't know what a Hind helicopter is, He cannot even say hind correctly, he is shocked by what he should have know if he was in the services and many other little things point to the fact that he was never in the services.

Average catapult launch is 2.5 g, and max is 4.5 g. Catapult launch setting depends on factors such as the type of aircraft, and it's load out.

In your conversion you are losing around .26 Gs, the answer is ~3.761G. For reference: 165mi/h * 5280 ft/mi * (1/3600) (h/s) = 242 ft/s -> (242 ft/s) / (2 s) = 121 ft/s^2 -> (121 ft/s^2) / (~32.174 [(f/s^2)/G)]) ~= 3.761G.
8:30 thats an E-2 Hawkeye, an AWACS for carriers
Guy who paints the chains: "Do you think I could have a BIGGER BRUSH?! PLEEEEASE?!"
They like like they were spray coated, though I'm sure there are times someone has to inspect and paint links.

It would be nice if the people who made this subject video knew what they were taking about.
One anchor link on a carrier is about 300 lbs.
The Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers are conventionally powered - diesel and gas turbine.
All of the American amphibious assault ships are conventionally powered.
Thats why the pilots are trained to put their heads against the headrest when launching off a carrier.
The USMC is the only branch that uses Harriers. I think most of the Harriers are gone forever, being replaced by F-35's.
Supposedly by 2026

From what a Chief told my apprentice class, the old Enterprise CVN-65 was the fastest.
A chief told us that the only limit to the speed of a nuclear powered vessel is the ability of the shaft to hold together.
Peak g forces for a steam catapult launch are about 4g. It may be similar or less with a launch using an electromagnetic launch system (EMALS) like on the Ford-class aircraft carriers.
Supposed to have fewer peak g for less stress on airframe and pilots

The one with the dish on top u had never seen is like awax it circles area and let’s jets knw cause the dish will pick up all the way to the ground.
Aircraft built for use on carriers use a lot of titanium and other alloys to be able to withstand the harsh landings.
