I did hear a news reporter mentioned that plane as well. No telling what the story is, and it could be just that too.Maybe the rebuilt a fleet of warthogs just for this carrier
It IS a new carrier. They tend to upgrade things.
Never forget to say your prayers.Yeah...I thunk they're gonna nail Iran...which will bring russia & china into this game
Get your preps ready & don't forget to say your prayers tonight!
Nice post! Total bullshit!Do you know what a single Warthog can do?
They started by building a high speed cannon with rotating barrels that shoots depleted uranium shells the size of coke bottles (they can easily penetrate most any tank armor).
Then they built a plane around that cannon
It is the most destructive piece of flying awesomeness I've ever seen!!!
The pilots say you can only fire it for 2 seconds or the force of firing the cannon will stop the planes forward momentum.
And they are coming right atchya Hamas!
Nice post! Total bullshit!

Some times I do...so that was a reminder to myself as well
Greece does not even have a true aircraft carrier, unless you count their amphibious assault helicopter carrier.I don't know if the A-10s are still usable....I think their maintenance has gone undone.
Besides drones can do the same job without risking pilots lives. Just saying....
But I do like those slow moving beasts of destruction. They were awesome in their day.
However,
The Gerald Ford is only one of THREE carrier strike groups. The UK's flagship HMS Queen Elizabeth and a Carrier strike group from Greece are all three in the Med right now.
That's enough firepower to destroy every Middle Eastern nation with power to spare.
And Hamas is not the only group to attack Israel. Hezbollah is joining in the fight.
(albeit reluctantly)
Apparently they weren't really ready for a full scale attack for whatever reason and are finding themselves being drug into it despite their misgivings for doing so. (Strongarmed and shamed into participating)
Syria, Lebanon, Palestinians (of course) possibly Egypt and dunno who else. (Jordan never really joins in these things...they might grumble but that's the extent of their involvement)
Saudis are claiming Palestinian support but will do nothing. Iran knows its in trouble for doing all this to help stall the Saudi/Israeli peace accords. It didn't think things would blow up like this. (Dumb dumb dumb)
This is either going to be WW3 or over in a couple of days with Israel getting a new settlement out of this.
A-10s cannot takeoff or land on a carrier, and their wings do not fold in the first place. It's bullshit.Maybe the rebuilt a fleet of warthogs just for this carrier

About 90% of your post is a collection of lies, especially this part:Which part is BS Cap'n Crunch?

I know what I know. I'm sorry you fell for someone else's lies.You must be a shit load of fun at parties!
How's the crunchberry beast these days?
I was out hiking in the desert once close to Las Vegas when suddenly a half dozen or so warthogs swooped down very close to the ground about 200 ft. from me...I suppose their training target was that close to me...it was a very impressive sight.I would like to see one of those planes in action, against someone else of course. But I would like to see one. Actually seeing one fly would be good enough for me.

They are there already? Are you sure? It has only been 2 days.Looks like cap'n crunch got me on a technicality. It sounds like those warthogs are not on the USS Ford...they're already there! Ready to wipe out palistinians like toilet paper on clingons
Even when I lose...I win
God it's great being me!
I have directed the movement of the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group to the Eastern Mediterranean. This includes the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Normandy (CG 60), as well as the Arleigh-Burke-class guided missile destroyers USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116), USS Ramage (DDG 61), USS Carney (DDG 64), and USS Roosevelt (DDG 80). We have also taken steps to augment U.S. Air Force F-35, F-15, F-16, and A-10 fighter aircraft squadrons in the region.

In response to the Hamas attack on Israel, Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III has directed several steps to strengthen DOD posture in the region to bolster regional deterrence efforts.www.defense.gov
Ugly plane but they are effective.

It could be just a story to intimidate the enemy. Maybe they are simply transporting these planes. When I heard it on the news I wondered myself. My understanding is they aren't carrier planes. At any rate.....Us little people don't need to know.Yep...
The A-10 needs 3k foot of runway to operate.

If they did then it's something completely new that nobody has yet heard about. Given that it's a 51 year old airframe and what would be involved in making it capable of being used in carrier-borne operations I doubt it.Maybe the rebuilt a fleet of warthogs just for this carrier

The howitzer shoots rear facing and side facing...and it does affect the navigation of the plane....the amount of recoil the howitzer has does this....it is physics in action. Forward guns are still devastating....I'm forgetting the caliber but it's still devastating as well.About 90% of your post is a collection of lies, especially this part:
"The pilots say you can only fire it for 2 seconds or the force of firing the cannon will stop the planes forward momentum."
Simple physics would tell you that is not possible.
