Born and raised in Bergen. Came to the states with my parents when I was 10. Eventually ended up in the U S Navy and served four years on an Aircraft carrier. Not as big as this one, but still very lethal. It was an amazing experience. I worked in Navigation, so spent most of my time on the bridge. We were in the Pacific, and deployed to Vietnam and other far placed. Recovered Apollo 11 and 12. Now many years later, I'm proud to see this amazing ship visit my homeland. Proud of both my countries.

I heard that this ship had to deviate from the normal shipping lane close to this point because it's draft is deeper than other vessels using this shipping lane. I also think that this is the biggest ship ever to sail into the Oslo Fjord. When they passed the Oscarsborg fortress it looked like they stood guard of honour on deck. The fortress played vital role against the nazi invanision of Norway in 1940.

The brand new Hipper class heavy cruiser Blücher was sunk at Oscarsborg 9 April 1940, and the "pocket battleship" Lützow and light cruiser Emden forced to turn around. The 28cm guns that fired the two first hits were from the 19th century, but would have caused severe damage even to a ship like Gerald R. Ford.

I think the largest carrier that is available to the public to inspect is the Midway, berthed as a museum ship in San Diego. I believe its over 900-ft long, as compared to the Nimitz class, which is nearly 1000-ft long. That said its possible to get an idea as to just how immense these ships are. Just walking from the parking area to the ship, we get an idea of just how "big" that big is. then to walk the weather deck / launch and recovery deck, the hangar deck, etc, its huge. And then to look across San Diego bay at one (or more) of the Nimitz class carriers in port, they're over 100-ft longer yet. It was good to see the Ford finally get all of its teething problems solved, and now its the pride of the fleet.

Some of my fondest Navy memories are going into ports and allowing the local populous to come onboard and look around. I remember one time in Italy a little girl looked at the skull and crossbones on the tails of the Jolly Rogers F14's and asked, "Why do they have those on there? Do they like to kill people?" I gave her a story about a shark in a swimming pool. And while it is a very beautiful animal, it is a threat to humans and might have to be destroyed. I don't know if she accepted that or not. But I was always very proud to show off the USS John F Kennedy CV67 to people in other countries. Unfortunately, we never made it to Oslo.

@Phillip Banes A Ford class is not 3 times more capable than a QE (75 aircraft vs 60). For that $18 Bn we could build 3 QE Class carriers (with $3 Bn left over) which would provide 180 aircraft at surge over a wide combat area. The Ford provides 75 aircraft from one, albeit moving, position. I know which option an Admiral fighting a war would take. I already pointed out that the second carrier (Kennedy) has cost $13.5 Bn (and counting). The third (Enterprise) is under construction and budgeted in fiscal 23/24 at $12.9 Bn.
@1chish
@1chish 11 ай бұрын
@Phillip Banes You know Philip when you quote Wikipedia as your source without understanding the context you really have no argument to offer. Forgive my detailed response: 1. The first seagoing skipper (a certain Captain Kyd) said when asked by an American reporter in New York 'how many aircraft?' Without hesitation he replied '60 at surge but normally two squadrons of 12 each'. So I will go with a man who commanded the ship all through its sea trials and F-35 development voyages. 2. The Royal Navy has published a deck parking plan with 42 aircraft, with a further 20 in the hangar deck, and flight ops still ongoing. 3. The US carriers operate 4th Gen F-18s while the QEs operate 5th Gen F-35s. 4. We use a different rotary aircraft delivered early warning system and don't need the Hawkeye. In any case drones make it redundant. 5. There is no way an F-18 is 'more capable' than an F-35 regardless of launch system. if that was so why is the US Navy and USMC replacing F-18s with F-35s? 6. Catapults have a weight limit and a fully tooled F-18 goes up partly fuelled and uses the 'Buddy Up' refuelling system developed by British carriers. 7. The F-35s on the QE have been proven to fly off fully fuelled and with 22,000lb of weapons. It was called 'Beast Mode'. 8. The QEs can deliver initial sorties far quicker than a Nimitz because they just turn on to the launch line and go. On recovery even when the SRVL system is used they can land clear of the launching aircraft. During CSG21 4 ship mixes of USMC and RAF F-35s were going off at 30 second intervals. 9. CATOBAR launches needs to be 'staged' and that takes about 5 minutes per aircraft. In addition when recovering, the catapults on the angled deck are lost to use. Even the Port catapult is delayed by landing aircraft in case of a 'bolter'. All 4 are rarely used together. 10. In the first 6 hours the QEs deliver more and faster sorties but over 24 hours the Nimitz delivers some 10% more sorties. 11. the lifts on the QEs have always worked. Unlike those on the Ford. the weapons storage system has also always worked unlike the Ford's systems. And please don't try to suggest EMALS works reliably. 12. Nuclear power for carriers offers absolutely NO strategic or tactical advantage. And certainly not for the extra $12 Bn it costs to operate in its life compared to conventional carriers. They still need RAS for weapons, victualling and aviation fuel. The accompanying ships are all diesel powered so need RAS for fuel. During CSG21 the QE and its accompanying ships went round the world with no difficulty. 13. What no one mentions is the environmental risk of nuclear powered carriers, the fact they need $5 Bn refuels mid life and cost billions to scrap at the end of their lives. The first nuclear carrier has yet to be scrapped. 14., To suggest a reduction from $13 Bn to $12.5 Bn per ship is something to be praised just makes me smile.

@@henryvagincourt4502 I am not convinced a nuclear carrier is worth the money. This ship cost $18 Bn, was flooded up in 2013, acquired in 2017 and only did her first trip outside US waters late last year. If we had the USA's budget we could build 3 x QE Class carriers and still $3 Bn left over for what she cost. She still needs RAS for victualling, aircraft fuel and weapons and her CSG ships all burn diesel. So there is always a tanker / supply ship. The US Congress did a survey of conventional vs nuclear carriers and in today's money a 1997 nuclear carrier cost $15 Bn more to operate in its life than a conventional carrier. That does not include post service scrapping costs which are huge. Or build costs of $18 Bn. Forgive me suggesting to a Matelot anything about sea warfare but I think you might agree an Admiral going to war would rather have 3 x capable carries offering 180+ aircraft than one very capable carrier offering 75?

@henryvagincourt4502 11 ай бұрын
@@1chish I cant argue with many of the points made, but refuelling a carrier of this size with diesel would require more than one accompanying tanker, that raises many questions for the Yanks. Where do they get the tankers, fuel from, given they can deploy a possible 11 Carrier Strike Groups. It would also require a change of design to the Ford Class taking space away for diesel tanks. My other point would be the Ford's need a huge amount of power for EMALS, nuclear guarantees that. If I was going to war, give me one Yank carrier over the QE which is a sad statement, but it's just the way the MoD have ineptly ran the Royal Navy the last two decades or more.

@@kiabtoomlauj6249 Not sure where you get your info cock, but a carrier battle group of 15 ships is pushing it even for the USN.....as for having a SSBN with the group, not a chance, there job is to disappear and to remain undetected, until the patrol ends.

Modern Hypersonic missiles that can manoeuvre are a threat depending on how good the targeting sensors are, Kinzhal how ever isn't one of those, It's a version of a normal ballistic missile that has been adapted so it can be launched by a plane ( Air launched ) The German V2 rocket from WW2 is a balistic missile that is also a hypersonic weapon. Kinzhal apart from being air launched isn't fundamentally that different. The Chinese Hypersonic glide body missiles that can manoeuvre however are a much more serious threat to a moving target...

The guy is a Reality TV show clown, beloved as he is by his Alternate Reality, Right Wing Christian Nationalist MAGA cult members... although I must admit he's very convincing when he looked straight at the TV camera and said he used to have an uncle who taught at MIT, when Trump was younger... and that uncle, Trump said, had told & had taught him aplenty about how nuclear stuff worked! Now, he knows everything --- "more than any other human beings" --- on how ICBMs & other nukes work. America and the world are so lucky, we have such a genius, alongside his friend, Comrade KGB Col. Putin... to help guide humanity in these perilous times!
