Crash gate 6 to close

Post by slogen51 » Tue Apr 01, 2025 6:05 am

I see that sadly the lane leading up to CG6 will become unavailable to spotters soon

The lane will become the entrance to the new ACMU Aircraft Carrier Mock Up.

Seems like they are building a full scale mock up carrier deck plus ramp in a Lake that can simulate wave motion.

Plus a unit to acclimatise crew to a rolling deck - i feel sea sick already!

I've heard the F-35 is to be cancelled due to Trump and the carriers themselves converted to VSTOL.
