  • BRITISH INVENTION

  • too much fuel and payload. it doesn't have enough thrust to lift the the weight vertically under exhaust only. so they slant the nozzles to 45 degrees for short takeoff. surprised there wasn't a ramp like the british ships.

  • @hawaiidispenser probably because it wasn't carrying drop tanks or armament. not sure though.

  • @Stealth496 the RAF has better pilots, making them superior. 

  • @MrGrassam Google Richard Pearse

  • @slipersox It is my belief that a. as snipeyou mentioned U.S.S. Bataan has a longer flightdeck and b. US harriers have more power then British harriers making them supperior.

  • @Livercool92 Its fucking beautiful.

  • @slipersox US carriers are pretty damn long and my bet is tht they dont need the ramp

  • the ships frim the british are "made" for hariers.

    the americans buidl there ships in first place for support helicopters for there marines.

  • @slipersox 0:33 Didn't look like it needed a ramp to me. :)

  • @JuanKuzov just pointing out a simple fact for our friends out there with slightly less brain cells.

  • @pbplaya5 I smell an idiot yank who puts his patriotism ahead of his fucking brains
