Carrier F-35
It was made just six weeks ago in the Atlantic, just off Newport News ( Hampton Roads), Virginia .
These are the latest sea trials of the F-35B on the USS Wasp. They were very successful, with 74 VL's (Vertical Launch) and STO's (short take offs) in a three week period.
The media and the program critics had predicted that we would burn holes in the deck and wash sailors overboard. Neither of which happened.
You will notice a sailor standing on the bow of the ship as the jet rotates. That was an intentional part of the sea trials.
No catapult... No hook.... It's a new world out there!
The shape and scope of warfare worldwide just changed.
