I would not want to be conning the USS Gerald Ford in a narrow channel into a busy harbor with the island set that far back.

Isn’t it also true that many of these ships operate with a crew of 20-25? Goodbye opportunities for our young men and women to enjoy a career in the Navy. Only a very few will pass the recruitment tests.
The Navy is saying goodbye to America. That’s how I see it.
In the future, the majority of ships in the Navy will be operated by remote control and the Navy will be a completely alien force. I fear for the future of this country.

SONOBUOY PING!
This may be of interest.
Click on pic for past Navair pings.
Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.

Got it bookmarked, thanks
I trust these new Navy ships will have a way of scrapping old paint off all by themselves?
Scrapping off old paint and applying a fresh coat of red-lead and then 2-coats of gray paint had to the most hated task we had to do during those tedious between cruise times. The air powered needle guns helped some taking off the old paint, but you were half deaf afterward.

Some of you will be interested in this.
Searching for a gift to give my Dad who served in the Navy during WWII, I discovered this web site.. NAVY CRUISE BOOKS ON CD.
http://navyboy63.com/nhf/
I was able to purchase my Dad's ships cruise book, The USS Mississippi, and it was the same cruise book page by page I remember seeing when I was just a kid, but on CD. That original book fell apart back in the 1960s and was eventually lost or tossed. Sadly my Dad passed away before the CD was delivered so he never did get to see it.

I could and probably will spend hours looking at the various ships. Some dedicated time went into your site and I’m very impressed. One concern I have for our navy is the potential impact of anti ship missiles. Seems there are few measures to protect against them short of taking out the sources.
Thanks for your hard work.

Electromagnetic aircraft launch and recovery replacing current steam catapults and current arrestor systems. I was aware of electromag replacing steam cats. Do you know anything about electromag arresting gear or was the above a misprint?

Nice job (looks like a LOT of work). I sent your url to a lifelong buddy of mine who was a swabbie for 27 years...he will love it.
