OMG that aircraft carrier is one massive warship! Must’ve been one big sight for the natives to see.

Felt like the opening to space balls. Holy shit that thing is massive

Great story of Norwegian resistance to the German attack in WW2. War had not been declared, Hitler despatched one of the most modern battle cruisers of the German navy, the Blucher, with about 1,000 troops on board to seize Oslo. Arriving at night the Blucher had failed to respond to a challenge from a guard boat and then came to Oscarborg. The fortress was manned by an elderly officer, two regular sergeants and a couple of dozen conscripts with a few weeks service. The casemates shown early in this video fired. They were from early 1900's but large calibre, at point blank range, they did serious damage, causing major fire on board the Blucher, which carried on. When this video first shows the aircraft carrier, there is a block house on the shore line which was a static torpedo battery, containing WW1 vintage Whitworth torpedoes. These fired, scoring 2 hits and the Blucher sunk with great loss of life. The Gerald Ford probably sailed right over the wreck, I wander if the crew knew anything about what was below them?

@klade5031

9 ай бұрын

Slight correction. Blucher was a *heavy* cruiser, not a battlecruiser. It's an entire weight class difference as historically, the German iteration of the battlecruiser concept was speed and armor at the cost of firepower and were essentially designed to be capable of taking hits, especially against the caliber of the guns the fortress had, and capable of functioning as secondary battleships as opposed to the more glass cannon approach the British had.

@@Horible4 It’s not the mapping of the waterways that I was thinking about, but rather the fact that such a large vessel is going through them. The estuaries and channels of Chesapeake Bay have been thoroughly mapped for centuries, especially since it’s such a high traffic area. Even so, I still feel some concern when even my little destroyer goes a-steaming through those waters! And destroyers are much more maneuverable than carriers! There’s just so much to consider when driving ships: maneuverability, momentum, traffic density, etc. All of these considerations magnify in significance when in what we in the Navy and wider seafaring world call “restricted waters.” Now you have to make sure your position on your charts matches your actual position in the waterway, now you have to pay attention to the depth of water, now you have weird physical phenomena like squat and bank cushion to worry about, now you have to make sure that other watercraft around you don’t act dumb (ferries and pleasure craft are particularly notorious). My point is that no matter how well-mapped and well-traveled it may be, a narrow waterway is a narrow waterway. And if we destroyermen need to be on our A-games, knowing precisely when/where/how much we must turn and how fast we can safely go, when navigating narrow waterways in our naval equivalent to a high-performance sports car, then carrier drivers, having the equivalent of a semi-truck pulling an oversized load to contend with, must be on their A+ game!

Excellent view of the port side of the ship...showing a Rare view of the ship. This view is Very difficult to record because when the ship is inport, it usually ties up on the starboard side where MANY people take pictures or video-record.... you need to be on a boat, IF It Is Allowed, to record the port side and Even when you do you are nearly underneath the ship or are Totally restricted from Getting a boat on that side. BUT Here, you are on a far enough hillside and can get a Good Wide Shot of the port side.........Well Done, Thanks!! Reason I enjoyed this video is because I have a NEW Model, in 1/700 plastic, of GERALD R. FORD, and this helps!!! (ESPECIALLY with the railings along the flight deck!!!)

Imagine being on one of the lil boats and watching that behemeth sail by.
