Our U.S. Navy is at war with the novel Coronavirus. Theodore Roosevelt, the aircraft carrier of former Captain Brett Crozier, is currently inflicted with Coronavirus to the tune of 678 sailors of its 4,069-man crew testing positive for the virus. The Navy is recommending that the ship’s recently dismissed Skipper Brett Crozier be reinstated once […]
The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter can do a lot of things, but one thing it can’t do is double its combat range: That’s the challenge Navy aviation is facing as it shifts its sights away from ground support operations in uncontested airspace and toward near-peer level conflicts against technologically advanced opponents like China. Thanks to […]
China’s People’s Liberation Army–Navy just reached a significant milestone in its efforts to develop a globally-capable “blue water” navy, as the nation’s second aircraft carrier entered service on Tuesday. China’s new carrier, dubbed the Shandong, is not only China’s first home-built vessel of its type, it also earns the nation a place in the elite […]
The Chinese Navy is currently amid a new effort to assess and train experienced naval aviators to serve in warship command roles in the nation’s still-developing blue-water navy. China’s second aircraft carrier, its first home-built vessel of this kind, is currently undergoing sea trials. Another is currently under production and more are planned for the […]
Russia’s only aircraft carrier, the long-troubled Admiral Kuznetsov, last saw action in 2016 in support of Pro-Assad forces in Syria. That deployment proved embarrassing for the Russian military: it lost two aircraft as they attempted to land onto the ship’s flight deck. When its rotation was over, the Admiral skulked back to Russian waters spewing […]
The U.S. Marine Corps has recently been experimenting with using its America and Wasp class amphibious assault ships as smaller aircraft carriers that can launch sorties of short takeoff/vertical landing F-35Bs.

By far my favorite line, however, was the conclusion: “This reporter believes it was the secret Air Force spy plane, the Aurora, returning to its base in the California desert.”
The SHB. It’s a Navy thing. More, it’s a CV thing, ‘CV’ being the code for carrier, the kind of carrier that has cross-deck pendants and planes with hooks. The Sh!t Hot Break: if you know what it is, you’re smiling already. When you hit the fleet and get to the Boat during the day, […]
Boeing raised eyebrows last year when it filed patents on the tech it would require to turn America’s only supersonic heavy payload bomber, the B-1B Lancer, into the world’s fastest gunship. While that pitch may not have been a home run with the Department of Defense, it does appear the legendary Lancer may have more […]
Defense media has been rife with talk about anti-ship missiles in recent months, thanks in no small part to the lead China and Russia have on the United States when it comes to fielding hypersonic platforms. With the U.S. military turning its attention toward a return to near-peer level conflicts and tensions continuing to escalate […]
Two Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornets reportedly collided in mid-air over Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, California on Tuesday. The fighters were reportedly conducting close-air support training when they came into contact with one another, causing what the Marine Corps has classified as a Class A mishap; indicating that the amount of damage […]
Carrier landings are recognized throughout the aviation community as among the most difficult and complex ordeals a pilot can regularly encounter. Contending with sea winds, the high speeds required to maintain proper control over the aircraft, and the pitch and roll of the deck of the carrier in rough seas have prompted many aviators to […]
