Incredible: USS Gerald R Ford High-Speed Turning #shorts
The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) is the lead ship of her class of United States Navy aircraft carriers, named in honor of the 38th President of the United States, Gerald R. Ford. The ship was commissioned on July 22, 2017, and is the first new aircraft carrier design in the U.S. Navy since the USS Nimitz (CVN-68) was commissioned in 1975.
The USS Gerald R. Ford is a highly advanced ship with state-of-the-art technology, including the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG), both of which are designed to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of aircraft operations on board the carrier.
In terms of high-speed capabilities, the USS Gerald R. Ford is powered by two A1B nuclear reactors, which together provide the carrier with an estimated top speed of around 30+ knots (34.5+ miles per hour, or 55.5+ kilometers per hour). This is similar to the top speed of the Nimitz-class carriers, despite the Ford-class carriers being larger and heavier.
The USS Gerald R. Ford represents a significant step forward in naval warfare technology and capabilities, with improvements in areas such as stealth, survivability, and operational efficiency. As the lead ship of her class, the Ford will be followed by other carriers such as the USS John F. Kennedy (CVN-79) and the USS Enterprise (CVN-80), which will continue to build upon and refine the innovations introduced by the Ford-class.
