Friday Firepower: Awesome high-res Aircraft Carriers (23 HQ Photos)

17 needs to be on all carriers

CANDICE SWANEPOEL FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THUNDER KITTEN!

Can we have more of the Marine's exercising photos? Specifically as a GIF to give the full bounce. (I'm assuming #7 is a Marine as they are the only branch of the US Military to operate the Harrier)

is 16 in Malta?

#17 Awesome.

Number 12 is an LHD, not a Carrier. Very different types of ships.

#17 looks a bit bulky downstairs…just saying….

#1 and #7… all those planes are beer cans and washing machines now.

I've just made myself sad.

pics like 7 or 17 shouldnt be posted cus then im gunna want to enlist for all the wrong reason and then guaranteed there will be no hot army girls in miles of where i end up X|

I am so glad that I did my time before women were allowed on "Ships of the Line".
And before everyone had to piss in a bottle.
I was on a carrier, U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE (CV-62) 78'-82' Signal gang.
During the Iranian Hostage Crisis, it was! They chanted, "Death to America" way back then.

She's got no naval

This Post is Awesome!…

17 was a nice surprise

16- from the right angles those AWACs (or whatever they are) look like the Starship Enterprise…

I was on both #16 and #8, but I'd gladly trade for #17

Another great British invention.

I served on the Kennedy & the Forrestal–didn't recognize the port, either.

#17 can bunk with me anytime!!

Major cool, Chive, I whip-a-crisp-one on ya! Made my day…

A big Hooyah to #3! The USS George Washington. The only forward deployed Carrier in the Navy!

Sometimes I feel under appreciative that we live in a society with giant floating airports of war, then I look at stuff like this

You could debate the utility of the carrier in today's war on terror, but there's no arguing it's an awesome weapons platform! Awesome pics.

just off deployment on the uss abraham lincoln (cvn-72) and as much as im sick of being on a carrier… it still is just cool shit to see shit like this. #17 was an added bonus, to bad she wasnt onboard.

'awesome'
