This is incredible. This never gets old for me. According to another video, the USN is transitioning to smaller carriers, which cost a lot less and are also smaller targets. This might make the USN more agile and adaptable.
When I was stationed onboard the USS Nimitz as a Fire FIghter (DC), I remember witnessing the anchor being dropped when we arrived at our home port in Bremerton Wa. Those chain links look HUGE in person. It's amazing to see just how massive some components of the ship need to be in order for it to function. The first time I actually saw the ship up close, I couldn't believe how massive it was. I was actually able to also walk underneath the ship while it was in for repairs in dry dock. But even a ship that size would still list while out in deep ocean. A slow, steady rock from side to side mostly. But during bad weather, you could almost walk on it's walls depending on how close to the flight deck you happened to be.
lol yes much larger when you sit on one of those links :) worked on the Nimitz also ,but on the east coast,in a fighter squadron as an a.d. also saw the america and Indy in dry dock :)and them use two cranes to maneuver the anchors around the chain was laid out in a line on the dock in the ship yard:) have been in rough seas in aimd shop what I recall most is working to chain EVERYTHING down :( thought this video was lame because on it ,it seems like a QUIET clam place with no one WORKING , in truth with a "hot" deck in full ops is more like slightly organized CHAOS :) Be well Peace Rick

A while ago it was computed that any of the catapults could throw a Volkswagen at least a quarter mile. Which is the only way a VW is going to win a drag race on a quarter mile track.
I'd like a similar scaled catapult installed on my minivan roof. Launch a drone, end up with the convertible minivan nobody ever bothered trying to make.
@@PietriGuitars My first day we got a tour of the Connie. Several of the stops are classified, most were not. This video really doesn’t show the impressive size of the chain!!!

I love too how its the CHAIN that does most of the work in keeping a ship in place, not the anchor itself. Physics gets weird when water is thrown into the mix.
So the anchor digs into the sea bed and the vessel must lay enough chain so it lays horizontal on the seas bed. This allows the weight of the vessel to have a horizontal rather than vertical pull on the anchor. For a vessel of this size it’s the weight of the chain on laying in the sea bed that provides most of the resistance to wind or current.
Yes, anchors on carriers have a low holding power ratio and are ultimately large clump weights. The chain plays a large role in the mooring systems overall holding capacity.
Well not entirely true. If it weren’t for the anchor going down and hitting the sea floor to sort of bury itself the carrier would simply drift with the current & be at its misery bc let’s say for example that you remove the giant anchor & use only the chain itself. Although the links of the chain are massive solid steel that weight alone wouldn’t be enough to hold even a Nimitz class carrier let alone a monster carrier like The USS Ronald Regan. I know for a fact that if you were to use the chain alone on the Regan although massive like I said without the anchor dragging those massive links to the bottom the chain would simply float freely again leaving you the misery of the insanely strong currents especially in the Atlantic.
Anchor chains are not painted to prevent rust as stated early in this video. The paint you see is marking the length of chain, the distance between the paint markers is called a shackle and is 90' long. The first marker is 1 shackle from the anchor and marked with a red painted link and 1 white painted link either side, 2 shakles out is 2 white links either side of the red and so forth. When coming up to anchor the Master orders how many shackles he wants the crew to pay out for a given depth of water. Shackles can usually be counted when free falling anchor and stopping at the desired length out. Heaving in is monitored by counting shackles coming up through the hawser pipe.
@@stangood Well as a Ships Master for 30 years I never saw a ships anchor chain that was painted apart from the red and white markers. Anchor chain is subjected to frequent and violent burnishing from the gypsy when the anchor chain is running over it, whether paying out or heaving. When dropping an anchor it is literally just that ie: free falling. A chain flys over a gpsy at such a speed you often see sparks coming of it. Paint will not survive that punishment, even the marker paint needs to be repainted regularly because it just wears off. Even when the chain is laying on the sea bed it is continually being abraided. Its hard enough to keep paint on the rest of the ship that doesn't have physical contact with anything.
This is so cool. I’ve always liked fighter planes abs military stuff but I never knew they did all this stuff down inside the ships. Very interesting 😲
Really? then find another video because this one does NOT show that at all :( even on the deck which does have a sort of limited amount of people & not even including the actual pilots, figure 3 people for every "hot" aircraft that is min. 75 people just for the aircraft BEHIND the island and minimum one or two more replacements either just below either resting or working & that is JUST in the squadrons NOT the red shirts, purple shirts "typical daytime on a "cold" deck not launching or recovering is around 300 people & that would be WITHOUT aircraft with live munitions' that would add more people AND more danger, worked on 4 flight decks and we are trained to NEVER go anywhere alone BECAUSE THAT WAY SOMEONE IS WATCHING YOUR BACK! unlike movies or fables is more danger from exhaust and tools and chains than being sucked up. Need to show a few fire drills on any of these ships is more chaotic than black friday at walmart :) Peace Rick
They got 5 dudes on a redline...wth? The Navy IS the fattest branch...they couldnt get someone with a little more ass to hold that hose? Lol. Based on it's diameter and spray, I assume it's roughly the same pressure as a red line on a fire truck; there's a bit of force when you open it up, but I'm 5'9" and 185 lbs (I was 17, in the VFD of my hometown), and didnt have a problem controlling it by myself when we responded to grass fires and such.
In accordance with the American's with Disabilities Act the US Navy has removed all staircases, tall curbs, and un-even sidewalks from all of the world's oceans. You're welcome.
Believe it or not the anchor doesn’t actually “anchor” the ship. The chain is the actual thing keeping the ship in place as it weighs a lot more than the anchor. The anchor keeps the chain in one place
@USA I've worked on that aircraft and other bombers have you? Doubt it and there is no way in hell 1 B-2 can carry the ordinance that 75 warplanes on a carrier can. If your referring to nukes all of those planes can be set up in minutes to carry the same damn bomb a B-2 can. Not as many per plane but prob 30x more then the carrier itself can have cruise middle pods that can definitely carry more. You're an idiot.
@USA Really don't care if you believe me or not. Been doing it for the last 16yrs and guarantee I know more about them than you do. I worked on the B-52 the first 5yrs of my civilian career and even it can carry more than the B-2.
Yet again. Whilst the anchor information is great, it degenerated into an aviation story already told thousands of times. I would like to see all the spaces/crew/missions onboard.
Actually it did not show but a small clip of the chain and not even them really doing much ? with the anchor or chain even how it is lifted or lowered? and the other clips are SO quietand clean almost looks like it was closed :) full ops, just doing warm ups is like organized and dangerous chaos, hell even steak day for dinner was more chaos than all the clips in the combined:) or beer day :) even saying you had cold can of coke after a few mo's at sea is more active than this whole film :) Be well Rick
I remember having to scrub the deck in 100 degree heat, freaking sucked!!! Also our squadron barracks was right underneath the catapults, took me about 2 weeks to get used to it and actually sleep
Love the Sea Harriers one of my all-time favourite planes with the Submarine Spitfires and thee Avro Vulcan bomber. Awesome planes, and all 3 played their part in different wars
If i remember correctly, they actually snap/break when the cat is fired. The aircraft bump into place, then the strut is locked in, then the shuttle is scooted forward to take out the slack. Then the aircraft slowly throttles up. Its not till the violent release of pressure into the cat that enough force hits the strut to snap it.
Breaks when enough catapult force is applied. It takes a little time for catapult to build pressure so to allow for that, the hold back bar holds the plane until sufficient force develops to launch the plane. It is precisely machined to break at a certain location and at certain force.
@@ShadowRhapsody81 that's what I've heard also, they have struts that are designed to snap at launch that have different strengths depending on the weight of the aircraft !

The Ford class carriers are designed to operate completely upside down. They launch aircraft the same way subs launch boomers. Quite a sight to see.
Your channel presents some of the best aviation content on UA-cam. Thoroughly enjoyable. Keep 'em coming!

Yet again. Whilst the anchor information is great, it degenerated into an aviation story already told thousands of times. I would like to see all the spaces/crew/missions onboard.
Actually it did not show but a small clip of the chain and not even them really doing much ? with the anchor or chain even how it is lifted or lowered? and the other clips are SO quietand clean almost looks like it was closed :) full ops, just doing warm ups is like organized and dangerous chaos, hell even steak day for dinner was more chaos than all the clips in the combined:) or beer day :) even saying you had cold can of coke after a few mo's at sea is more active than this whole film :) Be well Rick
Es genial!!! Una nación realmente bien organizada...por eso son país de primer mundo!!! Muuuchas felicidades!!!!
I remember having to scrub the deck in 100 degree heat, freaking sucked!!! Also our squadron barracks was right underneath the catapults, took me about 2 weeks to get used to it and actually sleep
I slept underneath cat 2 on Forrestal, and it took only a couple of days to get used to the noise, long days back then!
Same here shipmate.
Sleep was easy not half as bad as having to grease the damn things
At least no-one strapped your bunk to the catapult.
Menial cavemen work, primitive at best.
Love the Sea Harriers one of my all-time favourite planes with the Submarine Spitfires and thee Avro Vulcan bomber. Awesome planes, and all 3 played their part in different wars
Supermarine Spitfires!!

It was a secret development....😂
Good video! I miss working on these aircraft... Go Navy!
Amazing team nice work 👍🏽 thank you for the interesting video . 😎
I would like a detailed look at the holdback strut... how it holds the aircraft at full power, and releases when the CAT fires.
If i remember correctly, they actually snap/break when the cat is fired.
The aircraft bump into place, then the strut is locked in, then the shuttle is scooted forward to take out the slack. Then the aircraft slowly throttles up.
Its not till the violent release of pressure into the cat that enough force hits the strut to snap it.
Breaks when enough catapult force is applied. It takes a little time for catapult to build pressure so to allow for that, the hold back bar holds the plane until sufficient force develops to launch the plane. It is precisely machined to break at a certain location and at certain force.
@@borysnijinski331 part of my job was to remove the broken piece in the captured carrier and I just threw it overboard
@@ShadowRhapsody81 that's what I've heard also, they have struts that are designed to snap at launch that have different strengths depending on the weight of the aircraft !

Superb Video.
I came to see anchors and saw a whole lot of different stuff and oh boy I am glad I did it
I was a green shirt when I 1st got to the fleet after boot, I became a red shirt at the end of my enlistment.
I was on a LPH and a LPD.
THANK YOU for your Service.

Exactly what did this video have to do with the corrosive elements of an aircraft carrier and how they maintain them ?
Landing on an aircraft carrier at night you gotta be friggin insane. Lol
Beautiful! Fantastic! 4K in next videos, please! Success!
Standing guard over our free world doesn't come cheap. For those who would criticise her, ask youselves this; would you rather China ruled your world? From here in the UK I for one thank every man and woman for their Service. God Bless America!
China is da best. No Iraq, Afghanistan, etc wars👌
Anybody else just hear “highway to the danger zone” playing in the back of their head the whole second half?
I just love this country godbless our service men and women 🤘🤘🤘
Bless for what? To wreak havoc in the World? To visit places you weren't invited to? Do you want me to come and live in Your hallway?
Bless all those who serve on it, so that they never had a chance to fight! A huge target that you can't miss. And the further you go, the more useless all these giant military vehicles are...
This is why I love being an American. ✊🏼🇺🇸

А афроамереканцы ?
Морская держава. Правда в наше время значение АУГ теряет актуальность. 2 фактора: 1. Спутники, которые всегда знают, где находится АУГ (не наши, так китайские) 2. Крылатые ракеты морского и авиационного базирования, которые сейчас доступны любым странам, и которые могут устроить этому монстру как минимум большие проблемы и небоеспособное состояние, а как максимум и потерю корабля, так как любой авианосец - это посудина наполненная топливом, боеприпасами и самолетами. А ПВО у западных стран традиционно почему то слабое.

I like how there's no comments about how the captions go from normal to sounding like a poor translated book
Ive done that job many times. Once as we weighed anchor in the sound at Stockholm Sweden the wind chill factor was -27c so as the fire hose spray blew back on us it immediately froze so we became ice men. Join the Navy young men, you'll never regret it!
Navy, washing semi trucks, deicing whatever. You spray high pressure water at ice and yes, you get wet. Shut up seaman
Thank you

Harriers
"Dad, do you still believe in the Aircraft Carrier Battle Group warfighting concepts and doctrine? Yes son, I do."
I don't.
21 century war has changed and still changing at very high rates, couple of hypersonic missiles and the carrier will become coral reef with all the other support ships, those big muscle are not necessary in asymmetrical conflicts and cyberwars , also if Usa goal is to destroy China, better they hurry up because in 5-6 years will be impossible and the outcome not foregone
Couldn't imagine landing at night in the rain with no lights. Probably their training
Australia needs a few of these carriers
Added to favourites.

How are the lubricants, and used water disposed off in the end(after cleaning the landing deck)?? Container-Recipient or straight out into the ocean?
They document the suspected fluid and pump it into the ocean. Once documented the effects on ocean life are minuscule
water treatment plant!!!
It's put into the coolant for the nuclear reactor, and it just burns off.

At a target cost of $25,000/hr for the F-35, the Harrier looks positively economical.
The F-35 is basically a gimmick for somebody to make money, no sense at all
Это круто служить на настоящим авианосце. Тысяча лайков и спасибо за ролики реально круто. Вау
это не круто, только потому, что это наемники убийцы, поддерживающие государство разоряющее страны и уничтожающее местное население этих стран. Америка это 3 рейх, только все молчат, так как 100 овец слабее одного волка.

Aircraft carriers are so OP. Maybe they'll nerf them in the next patch to help balance warfare.
actually nerfed already. Russian submarine drones with nuclear power reactor and nuclear warhead can eliminate Aircraft carrier one at a time.
