- Опубліковано 22 вер 2020
- The Carl Vinson was first ordered in 1974, laid down in 1975 and launched in 1980. She was officially commissioned in 1982 and makes her home in Norfolk, Virginia. She has incurred a variety of comical nicknames throughout her years of service and these include "Starship Vinson", "Chuckie V", "the USS Chuck Wagon" and the "Carl Prison". As of this writing, the Carl Vinson is in active service.

I served aboard CVN-70 from 1998 to 2002 as an Aviation Ordnanceman. It was definitely Carl Prison back then 🤣 but hey...we won our Battle E and kicked ass in every way shape and form in all exercises and sea trials. RIMPAC'98 was a hoot. Earned my shellback status and got to swim in the open sea without life jackets. Great times! A young mans game tho. Hard work, and pride of service to that ship kept me going. Now im an old man in reflection.
Go Navy! 🇺🇲🔱⚓🇺🇲
Nice. Thank you for your service sailor. I also serviced on her, the Lincoln, and the Kitty Hawk from 92-98 as an AT-I in AIMD. Truly interesting times back then. I winder if they still serve shoe leather (steaks) or if it got any better. Lol. Also was fun getting my Golden Trusty Shellback recognition. That day sure was fun.
Thank you for your service.
I was in G-3 Bomb Assembly from 92 -96 on CVN-70!!!🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼 IYAOYAS!!!
@@ericlucena7827 IYAOYAS baaabayy haha hell yeah! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 💣💣💣
Thank you for serving man...US Navy family over this way!!
God bless the USA and the servicemen and servicewomen of the United States armed services🙏🇺🇸💪
Norm T were legit fighting in a war rn are u high?
True dat !! Cant say kill a Commie for your mommie any more !! LOLOLOLHAHA Gotz ta think of something Clever !
God should bless them for what? For killing poor, underprivileged trials around the world?

I was stationed on this ship back in 1992-94. I was a young man from Indiana and rarely even seen open ocean but in Bremerton WA, I got to see lots of ocean and Vinson sure was a big ship fir sure. F-14 Tomcats and F-18 Hornets were the main air wing units. I was onboard when the rathole gym was built and I used to workout on the days when I didn’t make it off the ship! My second ship was USS Peleliu lha5 (decommissioned). I still miss running on vinson’s flight deck. My knee reminds of that daily!
Oh yea? What department? I was in AIMD in that period as an AT-I. I bet we crossed paths at some point. And yes. Walking on the flight deck was fun. Gotta enjoy those FOD walkdowns.
@@wolfgangjr74 ha ha yes those flight deck walk downs were always fun but I really had a good experiences In disbursing then transferred to MAA giving out MOR or do reports. (This is my screen name). In 92, the ship was in dry dock at Bremerton, WA. I’m sure you remember that. Crows nest to ferry taking you to Seattle! Ah good ole times!!!!
@Tyler Storck most definitely! I’ll look up on my photo year book to see if I can find him in it later...was that his name also? Storck?
@@bruceyung70 I was actually at NAS whidbey so I didn’t go to Seattle. We just took of from whidbey to Cali usually then join the Vinson from that point forward. It was good times. Nothing like tasteless lobster and shoe leather grade f steaks. Yumm!
@@wolfgangjr74 yes, I remember the Whitbey Island is a paradise, beautiful beaches, forests, and Mountain View’s all around.
I served aboard the ‘Chuck Wagon’ from February ‘84 through August ‘86 as Machinist Mate 2nd. 99 degrees in the coolest part of the plant, and high humidity cleared up my chronic sinusitis - I smelled land when we were 20 miles out from Perth, Australia at the end of my only IO tour May ‘85....
Thank you for your service USS Carl Vinson
The US Navy, cannot afford to be anything other than the Best.
Charles Dignam well after ww2 I’m pretty sure they made like a promise to themselves to be the best
It cannot be the 'Best'. Any US child in 1st grade knows you do not use capital letters for words at the end of a sentence. You'd never be able to enlist. There is a test. ;-)
Michel Platteeuw , Do not under estimate our education system lmao
Amen
Michel Platteeuw You would also fail that test for misusing single quotation marks instead of double quotation marks which is incorrect in this situation. You have failed as a teacher.
Served on the Vinson in the Marine Detachment in 84-85, some of the best times of my life! Semper Fi!!
@Tyler Storck outstanding!
America #1!
Thank you for your service
Now add the 10 other super carriers 9 helicopter carriers 96 destroyers and 70 submarines we really are unstoppable at sea
WRONG! China clearly has the more unstoppable force, the Pentagon said it themselves! How does it feel to be #2? Cant argue with pentagon sorry
@@whyareyoureadingthis6044 Sure the US AF is raiding museums for parts cos of ... modernization?
Nice delusion.
Can I get 50k subs with videos? Yeah congrats you have managed to spend billions on a navy that nobody can compare too even your enemies
@@MrFlatage What? Since when did they raid a museum for parts? Are you off the pills too?
@@tunedskillsz Yeah but they’re made in China what else can you say? They aren’t as modernized and ours clearly are better. That doesn’t mean we should underestimate them though because that can lead to defeat.
A real wicked Hammer loaded up with some high end nails. Go Vinson!
Nice video and very informative and very entertaining and very satisfaction more videos.
Imagine the f15 fully loaded with ARAMS , LRASM & heat seekers. The 15 can fire a missle any way the f35 request it to be fired. Then the F35 can take control of the missle & send it where it needs to go. So basically a F35 could hypothetically be a AWACS or any role it needs. To get a missle on target. The F15 could be a mobile missle carrier
Good'ol Chucky V! Served onboard from November 2011-Jan 2014. I think I have a video of our Tiger Cruise from WestPAC 2012 from Pearl Harbor, HI back to homeport SD.
Thanks 😊
5:30 The two A4W reactors provide steam for the 4 main engines (propulsion) and 8 turbine generators (electricity), just to be clear.
Какой же мощный военно морской флот США.💪 Гордость страны👍
I'm a fan of you sir❤️🙏
I am proud of the US Navy and Military. They are the last stand on this earth.
Word?? Against Wat? Aliens because there is not a single nation that can compete with us. Waste of fking money if u ask me. China and Russia have maybe 2 and the US has 15 something aircraft carriers. Billions of dollars that could be spent on education or infrastructure spent on a useless boat.
@boss for life, I’m surprised you are following this channel, in yet you have no idea about the considerable PLA expansion and aggression in the last 5 years . Yes, I think you’re right. Start defunding the military like Obama......there is no need for it. A few ships and aircraft is all that is needed. And while you’re at it, why not defund the police and boarder patrol. That would be wonderful. Well done.
U.S.A.F Colonel bruh pla expanding??? They are in no shape to attack or do anything against the USA. If they didn’t have nukes, they could get crushed by the USA. The police have to be here because of crime and it is very clear they need to be here. But spending billions of dollars of your military when you could spend in on building the country, helping educate and care for the American people. China doesn’t have military power they have economic power also a big reason for their strength. Every dollar spend on the military is money that doesn’t go to the future of this country. Especially after the massive deficit cuz of covid.
@@JT-bt6jy Meh. We spend alot more on other trivial shit such as giving free socialized money to BIG mega corporations and big oil. Stop those funds and use that for education and the like. We have what we have because we have good control over the seas and shipping lanes. Sadly a large effective Navy is required for this.
Juan Rivera pretty sure u spend on the military more. Also protecting shipping lanes?? Maybe during world war 2 now Navy don’t protect no shipping lanes?
Served on the Vinson from 95-98 in the supply department. Can’t believe it is so long ago now.
People forget about how that little submarine from Sweden killed not only one of our Carriers but subs, destroyers and support ships as well during war games a few years ago. They even were working inside the Red Zone undetetced... Read up about the HSwMS Gotland. Hopefully we have learned from those lessons. Diesel subs running silent on batteries are not something to trifled with.
They learned nothing. Most subs do it.
@Tim Burm1 I am guessing you were never in the Navy and never part of War Games. The ships are at Condition 1 or 3 and are trying their best to not have this happen. There is no slacking in War Games, quite the opposite as a matter of fact.
@Tim Burm1 Nah you must have that 3 digit IQ to end a sentence? Else you cannot enlist based on your videogames? There is a written test? You need to start sentences with capital letters?
The US Navy has no 'warmode'. Sorry.
@@bcdushman Some war games are more realistic than others. Many times while we were training for deployment most of the crew had no idea what was happening on and off the ship. Only people directly involved were cognizant of it. We were not at GQ or war time cruising all the time as you suggest when an ASW exercise was happening. It depended on what type of exercise was taking place and what training was being taught at the time. I tracked a Soviet SSBN about 100 NM from the ship and there was no Condition 1 or 3 in place. It was business as usual.
Nice
Go NAVY!💪🏼⚓🛳
Again a wonderfull video. Thanks from the Netherlands.
*THE MIGHTY USS CARL VINSON IS ONE BEAUTIFUL CARRIER AND THE U.S. HAS MUCH TO BE PROUD OF WITH THIS AWESOME SHIP!!* *MAY THE LORD COVER HER WITH HIS HEDGE OF PROTECTION AND ALL THOSE WHO SALE ON HER, MAINTAINING FREEDOM AROUND THE GLOBE!!*
the official "Fuck around and find out" Carrier
I toured the Carl Vinson many years ago. I asked one of the marines (?) hosting the tours something like, "So, what did Carl Vinson do? Get a lot of money for the navy?" The marine said "yes."
OMG..after my overhaul in 1991 and 30 years, this girl is still going better than ANY eveready battery !! Vis Per Mar !! 2005-2009 overhaul had to be refueling :)
Carrier-based pilot is a cool job
pay tribute
just got off this ship yesterday
What was the last single engine fighter in the USN?
thats a KEG of whoop@$$ right there
pretty sure the elevator switch is still functioning properly due to some chewing gum. G-4 was the shit.
I like this voice .
Hi everyone here 🤗🤗
I was stationed at NAS JAX FLA PO3 '73>'77
Go NAVY!
**YEAH!!!**
what's with the lil sky roof on the launch deck
That’s my squadron
That ship is still a massive weapons system and can take on any enemy with all the aircraft and crew it has onboard. The F-35's are great aircraft and can take on the best the enemies can throw at them. These are the latest in stealth aircraft which is designed to down the enemies aircraft and missiles and all they can't take out the rest of the fleet can take out themselves.
Go Navy go! The Navy is the only military branch with the capability to fight in all 3 theatres, at the seas, in the air and on land.
Now would the Navy bring all aircraft carriers and there strike groups together in a show of force or keep them separated?
They can only deploy 2-3 of them.
@@MrFlatage I'm a wear of that but I was wondering if they would bring them all together to show force who's in charge
@@UndersheriffChapman Haha if you think a show of force puts you in charge you can join people like Hitler and many others like him throughout history.
It's just more easy targets to sink. That shows who really is in charge.
Just like my kid called Avengers assemble and beat Captain Kirk. Means he is in charge of Kirk now. Chain of command. Simple.
@@MrFlatage not what I meant. I meant by the Chinese and the fights going on in the China sea
My cousin works on the USS Carl Vinson
Famous last words.
Hellz yea. Kick names and take butt.
Apart from a little Swedish sub that can sneak past the entire battle group, sink the carrier and slip away completely undetected.
Wait till Modi's Brahmos supersonic or Putin's Zircon hypersonic missiles come flying in, then Carl Vinson will know what is unstoppable.
Love from India 💐
Question based on my own ignorance. Historically hasn't the navy avoided using single engine jets off of carriers?
simple the best...
Upgraded crew living spaces except for Marines.
hypersonic anti-ship missiles: Allow us to introduce ourselves
Directed energy weapons: Come at me bro
@@kingsleyzissou5881 Atmospheric Diffraction: let me stop you there
My uncle served as a navy aviator🇺🇸
I'm starting to notice we use Rust as Camouflage on our ships a lot.
How are the addressing the threat of hypervelocity missiles that fly at Mach 6 or more?? No measures currently deployed can counter them...maybe one, but not a swarm or even half a dozen can be stopped by all the ships in a task force, at least one Will strike the carriers and one or two ships....
Fabulous. God Bless all and thank you in Jesus Name. Freedoms Front Foot.
I personally know a fighter pilot on this ship!
be in one of these planes must be like like in a starship, is pretty new!
Think he flys F-18s.
@@INWMI That's what Captain Kirk thought. But then my 7yo called Avengers assemble and Kirk lost his brandnew ship. ;-)
@American Enthusiast lol
Against a well armed foe they are just a huge liability it only takes a few missiles to get through
the destroyer defensive screens and it would be toast.
I saw a video on how if you overhaul the system with rockets the chances of them getting every single rocket would be low.
I really hope our commanders do not think of this ship as Unstoppable. I hope they remember the Titanic.
wow that ship is big.. look the size of the people around it
FYI-She got 5,000 Armed Forces personnel.
@@chaskaabraxas5314 and 90 airplanes, thats more firepower in a single ship than many countries..
@@INWMI I'd like a list of said countries.
My name is Carl young vinson
My brother served jfk n carl Vincent 22 yrs navy
When a country starts naming ships after politicians, that's when you know you're in trouble.
A lot of the carriers are named after politicians. Presidents are politicians. It's when they name a carrier "Donald Trump" is when you should start becoming concerned.
White-Dragon Would probably be marketed and something really cool but it’s really just a massive disappointment that endangers everyone’s life
CVN 71
@1:30 The F-35C is the STOVL configuration, so who cares? Our carriers are CATOBAR equipped so they should be using the 'A' variant. You should know this.....
no its not, the A- Variant is the Airforce variant, the B-Variant is the STOVL and the C-Variant is the Navy (Carrier) variant.
Yea you are clueless and do not know which variant is which, lmao!
Darn! I hate being wrong!
US . Militray. Power
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
One hole on the top deck will send the entire fleet in reverse lol
Lmao what they were figure out what put the hole there and then proceed to destroy it
The F35 seems to make softer landings then an F18 is that like pilot ability or software?:)
Single powerplant, but software may have some roll... Maybe lol.
@@patrickfuller6025 MAGIC carpet.
God bless the US Navy
Also the star bard game
We're already unstoppable. We might as well be fucking space aliens.
I heard carriers are now outdated but no one really says why, i'm gussing it's because of missile technology. Given us Brits have two new carriers can anyone tell me what informs this view of carriers being no longer a good option. I mean if it is the case that its an outdated way of doing things, why have the US and UK got new carriers?
Try DUCKs mamee & serves the ballistick missiles tragedy on air defences
There’s the right way and the NAVY way... New carrier not ready ‘out of the box’ for a new plane. Old carrier, sure why not? 🤪🥰🥰🥰 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸.
🇺🇲🗽🏆
Maybe we should replace all air superiority fighters and anti surface fighters with the versatile multirole F-35s. Reasons: F-35 can do any role that involves air superiority and bombing runs on surface targets and the other fighters can only do one role like the F-15s and the F-22s can only do air superiority.
American guy Actually, according to the Air Force and Army the F15 is a multi role aircraft capable of dog fighting bombing and close air support. They were used extensively in both Gulf Wars. The F 22 aircraft has been successfully deployed against heavily defended targets. I have not heard of any actual F 22 combat dog fighting type encounters in a war zone but, it has a very good record in some recent war games exercises. I’m sure a little research of these aircraft would yield a better understanding of their capabilities.
I am just saying maybe we should replace all the fighters with multirole fighters due to the F-35 can do all that stuff.
@@SuperiorAmericanGuy I will go with the research that says it cannot do all that stuff.
Well the F-35 is multirole.
Greatest Nation on Earth, Iranian please take note don't mess with us.
Well if they fully weaponized the F-35, then yes
This is kinda like saying the Titanic is unsinkable, and of course we know what happened. By itself, it is far from unstoppable. It also depends on your definition of "unstoppable". Land can stop it no problem, maybe also an enemy fleet of warships and submarines.
It think or everyone think this carrier is unstoppable b'cos it haven't met Russia Zircon missile or India Brahmos missile YET. Against these two missiles, every US carrier is a sitting duck at sea.
India should buy cvn 75 for Indian navy urgently bassis
❤❤❤
USA!
wait the ford wasnt ready for the f 35 ??? did someone drop a ball ??
Unstoppable until it meets a submarine
I like to be one of the US or UK army ....
I love U S Navy
In the Spanish wars, the Armada, their ships were big and fearsome. The English had small fast ships. Who won? China has lots of small fast ships.
They didn't have even smaller and faster planes with long range missiles, though.
Wait, isn’t it unstoppable already?
G35 will be easy target for Russia's SU57
Are we to assume then that without the F35 they are not already unstoppable?? I like statistics, and statistics suggest no one has ever even tried to test the idea that they can stop a US aircraft carrier. Let's be honest, they could still be flying F4 Phantoms and STILL be unstoppable.
Sure so how many aircraft carriers were sunk again?
MAGA 2020 (Ohio). Finally a True friend of the US Military again, with President Trump.
Vote in Person.
Am I the only one who thinks the F-35 looks like a toy plane? Even the Harrier looked meaner than that stumpy little thing!
Probably not the only one, but you are certainly in the minority.
They're not of the meanest looking, indeed. Yet, never judge a book by its cover
Three times the size of the Harrier.
With the advancement in missile tech these aircraft carriers are at risk.
If I’m not mistaken they might have a laser that tracks onto the missile and causes it to explode in mid air
@@nickparkin8527 That's possible.
@@nickparkin8527 every ship that has been in for maintainance in the past year or two has a laser on it now....... they are just not saying that. Every country brags and boasts about thier newest weapon except the US... they have stuff nobody has any idea about..... I guarantee it.
Kevin Karbonik oh yeah. My uncle is in the navy (officer, 25+ years now!) and he’s been deployed I think 8 times and got back from his most recent one a few months ago. I’ve seen the aircraft carriers and it’s insane.
f14 tomcat was my favorite navel fighter
Will it carry only the f35c🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
It will also have F-18's.
I cannot imagine that. It would be so strategically stupid.
@American Enthusiast How? Well, what about flexibility? Going to war means that you should be capable to use different type of armaments in different occasions. The same applies for war planes. Imagine you spent that incredible amount of time, money and other valuable resources to build an aircraft carrier just for one type of plane.
@American Enthusiast Thanks for the clear explanation. My view on the "war technology" seems not to be really updated to the current times.
@American Enthusiast Don't worry, it's all fine. Cheers.
Yeah, because a giant battle ship carrying stealth plains isn't a conflict of interest at all.
A battleship? In this day and age? lmao!
@@MrFlatage I'm using battleship in a more general term. I think something smaller would be more tactically sound.
@@anthonywalker6268 You cannot make up terms of your own.
Thinkers are always first to die. All it takes is one single boat to sink that entire carrier fleet. No thinking required. Simple.
@@MrFlatage Oh shut up, Battleship has been a catch all term for a military vessel since before the class existed. Why do you think the board game was named after it!
@@anthonywalker6268 Haha so you get mad when reminded about what is what in the real world. Then attack Freedom of Speech?
Yea your kind have always wanted those big battleships. Hitler, Japan ... too bad they were all sunk. ;-)
Judah though.
Remind me never to piss off the USA.
China has the largest Navy and the USA's reliance on super carriers is foolish in the era of hypersonic missiles. There is no defense against them at this point.
China has a bigger navy ship per ship but ultimately the US navy can see Chinese ships way before they can see them.
1982? It must be the oldest US carrier in activity right?
No it's not the Nimitz class carriers are meant to be in service for 50 years and the USS Nimitz is 5 years from retirement so not the oldest by quite a few years
