[commandosolo2009]

broke the rudder have ya???

[TIBSCNetwork]

@Get1337 Haha! you're a dumbass!

I'd like to see you hold on.

[beirut1papa]

Hope ppl in the mess hall were holding on to their tray's lol

[phsyco78]

thats what i do with my toy boats in the tub at night

[cbr6864]

its way cooler on an aircraft carrier during sea trials

[bidefordrfc]

I had to look up this ihatestupidpeople's comment and its hilarious how he says Port= right etc etc... only to be shot down and never reply again...

[wnesbitt1]

Looks like a real buzz!

[bored1980]

That's quite a heel, and boy is she moving! Must be cool to have a powerful navy.

[yvesofzo]

Fuck me that thing is fast

[ownTer]

@Get1337 20ft wave would not even hit the scuppers kid. Get your sea knowledge up and learn what your talking about.

[tannalv]

Pussies serve in the navy. Real men serve in the infantry.

[ctfsh123]

@tannalv Sometime when you get a chance, say that to a navy seal.

[corbinrlc88]

@tannalv Apparently real men talk shit on the internet too...

[sknwk]

@tannalv you mean the navy get the pussies in a harbour, the infantry only gets your male buddy to have fun with.

[mattmatt115]

@tannalv What type of man serves in the airforce? According to your logic, they must be EXTREME pussies, even worse than the navy! Or are they inbetween the navy and infantry on the pussymeter?

[markhellstone]

@tannalv pff bullshit, real men are sailors not some cave men crawling around in the mud

[ksoltar]

@tannalv punk i served in the navy and the infantry. your bullshit is useless and pointless. lets see are you a vet of 2 wars? never belittle the service of anyone to their country. and i bet you have never seen combat. or know what a CIB is

[AlabamaSoldier]

@tannalv Ya 'fraid ta get wet?

[Badgerbitesback]

@tannalv no real men are Sappers

[MapleBalls]

@tannalv Really..... I Just Checked Your Page, You Should Put Some Infantry Videos Up & Show Us What You've Got Other Then That 80s Opera Video.

[modwebby]

@tannalv and the real man ask the pussies for help when they are in trouble.. nice

[mitsuaha1]

@tannalv and in your case, you serve cheeseburgers.

[K9RWilliam]

lol my friend was gonna join the australian navy, but they turned him down coz they said he had depression, hmm so now me and 2 of my friends have it.... sucks to be teenagers in this day and age. so that and the fact i cant wear shoes atm, spoilt my chance of gettin in the army :( and it looked so appealing!

[PowderOnTop]

35° ?

[wereppin209]

err body go to the starboard side hahaha

[dieselman56]

The correct 1MC (general PA) announcement is "Standby to heel to starboard!" It's really irrelevant which way the ship is turning; it's which was it's heeling (leaning) that's important to the crew!!!!!

-George Bleyle

[Swrtzjstn12]

I think our NSI is taking us to a Naval base in October.It's somewhere in San Diego.

[train2589]

YEEEEEE HAAAA!

[RowMysterTwitch]

Damn thats tight

[teapotwasp]

Thats cool vid. Are the personel in the foreground holding on just to stand up. If so what's the ride like below decks and without warning. Go Navy

[tenorismo]

" The heave of the deck plate ,the swell of the sea ,the sailors life is the life for me " GO NAVY

[UndoneB4Broken]

magnificiant beasts of the sea. OORRAAH!

[ah4fecksake]

fuck! never taught ships this big could move this fast...

[mach2flight]

@ah4fecksake carriers can blaze at 30+ knots.... the actual speed of nuc carriers is classified....... but in excess of 30 knots speed

[cut76]

hmm im in njrotc toohehe

[balongaboy]

Man your lucky. we have the farthest north NJROTC unit and only 3 people have the sea cruise ribbon.

[Gatrenzwerg]

thats power!

[Aspire198]

Sameal Jackson must have bin the captain 'Turn this big motherfucker left!' lol

[n1nj4warrior]

@ IHATESTUPIDPEOP (Navy ship taking "evasive action") at 00:00:52...(Daring 240109 port turn) at 00:00:54...in case the videos are just to complicated for you to understand, the ships were listing to the starboard side when they did a hard port turn...second, you don't argue with person filming it firsthand...

[iceman27406]

@n1nj4warrior you can tell these dumb asses dont no there way around ships hahaha off what coast was you filming. water looks as calm as a lake.

[n1nj4warrior]

@iceman27406 it was off the California coast...we were on a short cruise from Seal Beach to S.D.

[Sodiumreactor]

@iceman27406 Why are they dumbasses? So what if the waters calm what does that matter?

[iceman27406]

@Sodiumreactor it doesn't matter i was making an observation. they are dumb asses because they make comments about shit they dont know about if they were on board ships when they were making hard turns under full speed then they would understand that a ship heels to the opposite side of the turn.

[FutureMarine246]

@n1nj4warrior isn't it ironic when a person who's youtube name is IHATESTUPIDPEOPLE makes a stupid comment?

[IHATESTUPlDPEOPLE]

that's actually STARBOARD side your ship is turning to....STUPID.

[csninja]

@IHATESTUPlDPEOPLE please dont talk about stuff you have no idea about

[jamesdewer]

@csninja Please go back to watching Gomer Pyle USMC. You have no idea about what your talking about.

[csninja]

@jamesdewer haha and you do? i was right next to him when he was filming

[diverguy2583]

@IHATESTUPlDPEOPLE HA HA HA HA you mean PORT= right... STARBOARD= left

fantail= aft weatherdeck and forcastle (foc'sl)= foreward weatherdeck i bet you were sent down to the engineering space to get a BT punch werent you lol.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

@diverguy2583 port is left... starboard is right...

[diverguy2583]

@HazeGreyAndUnderway lol other way around lol... i forgot about this one lol

rum& coke and youtube dont mix lol.

[joelang6126]

@diverguy2583 other way about mate

[realmenrowport1]

@IHATESTUPlDPEOPLE so are you like, a professional troller or what?

[SMChurchill]

@realmenrowport1 I think the answer would be "yes" :-)

[UncleRusty69]

@IHATESTUPlDPEOPLE HAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA idiot, go fuck your self. You don't know at all what you are talking about......you stupid bastard, starboard is RIGHT. You were probably the smelly kid in high school

[bman2101]

Starboard is straight ahead

[jumpyjedi]

You moron! STarboard is RIGHT

[bman2101]

@jumpyjedi No sir, you are the moron for not detecting the sarcasm in my comment.

[Toby198840]

@bman2101

there was no sarcasm, you are just dumb

[MikeJ6129]

@bman2101 forward is straight ahead (in the direction of the bow of the ship),port is to the left facing forward, starboard is to the right facing forward, and aft (or stern) is to the rear........From the Naval Guide for Dummies.

[bman2101]

@MikeJ6129 Sarcasm is a form of humor that is marked by mocking with irony, sometimes conveyed in speech with vocal over-emphasis. From the dictionary.

[slipknotmaggot777]

starboard is left

[irishrage590]

@slipknotmaggot777 no it isnt

[Willschoo]

Starboard is right

Port is left, sam e number of letters, Port is red same colour as port wine

[glockeva]

@slipknotmaggot777 no einstein , port is left and starboard is right!

[slipknotmaggot777]

hahahah i didnt know wat i was thinking lol

[yeehawwoohoo]

holy shit that thing is goin fast

[Zanfacit]

(is laughing) I just did that today on a carrier.

[POTismedicine]

@Zanfacit sure internet rambo

[alexess13]

how scary tho :S

[sundaypunchr]

Glad I was on a carrier...LOL!

[Treetop64]

Gawd, that thing is bookin'!

[tryithere]

Who the hell yelled "ICEBERG DEAD AHEAD"?

[johngol10]

@tryithere

A ghost from 1912.

JK :)

[DonBringer]

@tryithere hahahaha

[denmalski]

The capt. wanted to go water skiing that day

[superzkid]

DAMN those things turn fast...

[greenbull56]

not that bad at those speeds for its size atleast from what i can tell from the video

[stawaz]

i love when boats get this windy like when i was going to newfoundland!

[HHodges710]

no, this turn here is on the port side

[HHodges710]

this is not as bad as it could be, this ship can make a harsher turn if needed

[Thegamer5150]

man I hope Varina does that

[OlegStrk]

Hehe, hang on kids.

Captain have funny mood.

[biggestMetallicAfan]

Danm that thing hauls ass

[ItalianDC]

when i was in NJROTC back in 03 or 04 we got to ride in a Mark V with the SEALS. pretty sweet. we hit port/starboard from a straight trajectory at about 40 knots, those things turn on a dime. its like a rollercoaster on the water.

[Vicious3027]

Hell Yeah!  I got a nice 3 hour ride with the SEALs coming back from a mission out in the philippines on the Mark V. I had a hard on from the engine, it was awesome

[ItalianDC]

lol, i feel you man. i heard those twin turbines warming up as we were in the no wake zone, and i said to the LCDR or whatever walking around, that sounds like a turbo engine, to which he replied

"yep"

i knew right there that this was gonna be bitchin'

[ItalianDC]

turbine engines, rather

[CouchAthlet1988]

Haaaaart Backbord!

[MrMackentosh]

hard-a-port(hard-to-port)navy term=D

[zabeicheg]

its not navy term u idiot

its a term on every vessel, even fishboats

hard to port means hard turn to the left, because port is left side of a boat, starboard is right side of a boat

[davesm8]

hense hard to starboard xD

[bapabob]

Ever watch that movie Titanic? Remember when the OOD yelled hard to starboard? The helmsman turned the wheel hard to the left.

[thetxaggie]

Im on the USS Mustin DDG-89, try walking in the pways when the ship is doing that, not easy lol

[CusterFlux]

nice bofors.

[69brwniz]

Not a Bofors...BAE 5" if I'm not mistaken

[rblebel]

I'm positive it could hit 30+ knots today, the speed bleeds off quite fast with a turn. The main engines on these ships are replaced pretty often. The hulls are cleaned frequently. Age doesn't have a huge impact on speed on Navy ships.

[Lordpianz]

looks like about 27kts maybe...USS Higgens an old ddg however...ddoubt it could hit that speed today...anyway..it's looks fun but when you life on a warship...it's pretty boring

[lester2222]

how many knots is this?

[RifledBarrel]

a 'Shkval' would OWN that ship no matter how fast it can turn

[seaboo143]

WOW! How ws were thry going?

[talkshowhost99]

that's pretty sweet =)

[chevy490]

thats bad ass

[ph11p3540]

Hold on mates. The Gs will pull your gobs off.

[Nimsha2]

Woo for N.J.R.O.T.C :P Sullivan East, area 9. TN

[alnsman]

i once was on a british Type 42 destroyer, we went starbord 45. i was on the flight deck and the ship leand over at 45 degrees and i fell overboard hahahahahaha. and that was in the south atlantic near the falaland islands

[quack447]

YAY this reminds me of Nascar!

[ZatanAndHesTeam]

Woho!!!

[ShiroKitaHoshi]

Wow...

I wanna ride!! :-)

[AdamDiddy]

... and then I said, port 30 ! Hahaha.

[spitgalore]

The title should read...Hard to Port! BTW, nice video, thanks for sharing!

[A1rsoftSniper]

You got to go on there for JROTC? Damn i wish i was in the NAVY one, we dont do cool stuff like that in the amry one

[son2of3heaven]

imagine the couple from titanic were in the front pretending to fly....(i bet they would be scared shitless)

[Cbizzl]

get out the rope and skis!

[lasuvidaboy]

Pretty fast. The recently retired ocean liner Queen Elizabeth 2 can do over 32-knots and it is over 3-football fields long.

[Sozos9038]

wow its going really fast, how fast is it? it must be over 30 knots.

[csmaster65]

I guess around 40.

[pwm02176]

Per the intel it tops out at 45 knots. CSL 2, USS Independence, a trimaran design around 420 ft is supposed to zip through 50 knots...I'll belive it when I see it.

[incubrian]

and u get a thumbs-down for being a sarcastic roach cock

[Hudson633rd]

nice

[Soilbreaker]

What a power of an engine i must say :o

[1122333445]

All carriers aren't nuclear powered only the Nimitz class are

[p8ntballer8491]

actually, the kitty hawk is the only non nuclear carrier in service. It should be getting decommissioned soon, if it hasn't already. But the USS Enterprise is nuclear powered.

[Brizbags]

USS Kitty Hawk. AKA Shitty Kitty. Holes the sizes of basketballs on some of the decks

[apoure25]

and it just headed into puget sound for decomissioning recently

[jdub3208]

That is a destroyer (DDG). It is powered by four LM2500 gas turbines totaling 100,000 horsepower, has two controllable pitch propellers and a top speed of 37 knots.

[salemcripple]

classified last i heard.

[antshiznet17]

All Aircraft Carriers and Submarines are nuclear powered in the U.S. Navy. Not that it matters anyways, there is truly only two ships in any navy. Those are Submarines and targets. Also, CG's in the U.S. Navy are gas turbine powered.

[antshiznet17]

its all about that nuke power on the submarines and carriers.

[CivSi02]

So who makes the gas turbines for these ships? Is it GE, RR, P&W or does it differ from ship to ship, just wondering, us seabee boys dont know jack about shipboard life :)

[lordoflivernois]

GE..

[CivSi02]

Is it LM2500?

[lordoflivernois]

yes...

[Kingofdetroit2004]

No way. No way! You guys got to go on a DDG going flank speed doing left hard rudder.

LUCKY!!!

[jeanmarc87]

it gives true meaning to the phrase 'hang on to your nuts'

[JIM30747]

What determines the size of a prop on these ships? Say for example that the designers chose a 15 foot diameter prop.  Why that particlar size, against say a 17 foot or 13 foot prop? There has got to be a reason why a particular size prop goes on a particular ship, isn't there?

[Vrael473]

Size and tonnage with design included im sure. The props got to be large enough to propel the mass of the ship, but cant be overly large as the engines that are onboard wont be able to spin it as effective as a prop thats specifically designed for that craft. For example the engines that are build for destroyers cant possibly use a prop thats designed for a carrier the way it needs to. And same for a carrier, it wont go anywhere if its got a prop thats designed for a destroyer.

[HUNDLEYGUY95]

i, but they take a good amount of time to speed up and even longer to stop

[tulmax82]

amazing, also the other video, it would have been awesome to watch behind the ship! Sure it was a fantastic turn

[RadioForever]

Hell, yeah! Good times back then.

Have a Great Navy Day!

[Kingofdetroit2004]

Gotta love the Arleigh Burkes.

[NewbernFireDept]

how fast in MPH was this ship going?

[choppergage]

all navy does not tell u how fast is, they r private. my answer 30+ knot

[Cirux321]

Fast enough to water ski. Arleigh-Burkes can maintain speed of around 35knts which is aprox 40mph. The scary thing is, so can the Nimitz class. 100,000 tons of carrier moving at 40mph is an awesome sight.

[HUNDLEYGUY95]

about 80,000 tons is more exact for the nimitz

[Cirux321]

Well yeah, but at max displacement they can top 100,000. Normal operational tonnage is usually between 80,000-90,000 tons. Light load is around 75,000. Regardless, the Nimitz class moves incredibly fast for a vessel its size and weight. Even yet the elder Iowa class can move their 45,000 ton frames around at 34knts. Remarkable engineering is what it is.

[sherman4970]

people just dont realise how fast these bad boys can go.nice!!!

[Yakko77]

It's fun even on a bigger ship like a CVN. It's kind of strange walking through the hanger bay and seeing blue sky out one end and nothing but water on he other end.

[Cirux321]

Yup. Done that before....several times. Fun shit...cept for the guys puking over the railing.

[JephN]

nicely done. too short a vid though.

[dustystix76]

i agree, but i been there done that, it's fun :)

[SNSalgado]

I was eating lunch when we turned, all you heard in the eating area was trays, silverwear, and even the top of the brand new counter top broke
