The world's largest warship, the nuclear-powered USS Gerald R. Ford super-aircraft carrier (5:37), arrives in Portsmouth along with a destroyer of the US Navy and a frigate of the Spanish Navy. 🇺🇸 🇪🇸
The $13billion USS Gerald R Ford, the lead ship of the Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers, is on it's first deployment since being comissioned on July 22nd, 2017.
The USS Thomas Hudner Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and SPS Alvaro De Bazan, lead of it's class of air defence frigates, joined the new super-carrier as part of a Carrier Strike Group operating in the Altantic Ocean, with multiple other nations.
While in Portsmouth, Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) General Christopher G. Cavoli hosted a Commanders Conference aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford and HMS Excellent. Read more: shape.nato.int...
Other warships, from nations such as Canada, of the Carrier Strike Group did not come into Portsmouth.
Also featured is a SH-60 Seahawk flying ahead of the carrier's arrival.

Closest thing to an Imperial Star Destroyer. That thing is just huge, beyond belief, and the weaponry on its deck (and below the seas, and surrounding it) is mindblowing. While most of Russia's Black Sea Fleet is either disabled (with no possibility of repair) or already at bottom of ocean. Question now is, how many of Russia's subs are as sub-standard as the Kursk? Not all of them. Protect this giant from attack

Oh and btw the Royal Navy does not have all its aircraft on deck when visiting ports unlike the US Navy. You keep banging on about '8 F-35s' but that doesn't make you right. But as it happens I share your disgust at so few F-35s being delivered. 27 (or now 30) out of 48 ordered 8 years ago is just wrong.

Got to see this beauty in Halifax on a very balmy 20 degree late October day (Very rare for this time of year). Got as close as we could while not purposely trying to piss off the security detail patrolling the water (I think those machine guns were loaded). Got to see the Eisenhower about 10 years earlier, again in Halifax Harbour . Can't ever say I've seen 13 billion dollars before - but hell was it impressive. And deck was fully loaded (unlike the Eisenhower which was empty of planes - just a few choppers).

The first ship in the video was a destroyer brother. Idk what a strike group consists off but I'm pretty sure it's 1 aircraft carrier, 1-2 destroyers, 1-2 submarines, then Probably more but I can't think of the rest. A Full strike group is big. Just one of our strike groups becomes the most powerful navy no matter where it goes and that's just 1 of our 11. Pretty wild. One can to down and you've still got enough to have two strike groups together in 5 different areas of the world if you want

@@TheAnnoyingBoss It apparently is traveling with 17 ships and one nuclear attack submarine, apparently it's a short deployment and only to friendly countries. A lot of the ships aren't American though, they are testing compatibility with NATO forces and training them how to work in a carrier strike group. Almost like they think NATO might be involved in some sort of big war. I was honestly kind of shocked this was deployed, I didn't think it was ready yet. This is the only Gerald R Ford class carrier. Right now it is the flagship of the American Navy.

It's roughly the same size as a Nimitz class carrier. But because of new efficiencies it needs about a thousand less crew members. And it has two nuclear power plants onboard, meaning a) it can stay at sea for at least 20 years, and b) it has super electrical power potential, and there are probably related weapons on board that the general public isn't aware of.

He ordered all ships compliments on the ships and had painting details. He waited to order it on a day when the paint was gonna blow onto the CPO/O parking on Pier Dr. And that was for minor rust showing. The Chief Boatswain would've been hung from the yard arm for the condition of that paint. That ship was almost more orange than grey.
