Yes he does, handsome old Sea-Dog too!
Thanks ..but these days I'm just a fat little sweaty man...
USS George H W Bush (CVN 77) deployed to the Mediterranean...
A magnificent beast..
Oh, I'm sure all the church ladies don't think that about you Bubba! they're prolly jealous of Lynnette, HEH!, HEH!
and yes she is a magnificent beast, I can't wait until we give a load of F-35C's to extend her reach and lethality!
Even more, I'm thankful that we have "resurrected from the dead" BD POPEYE!, nice to have our old Sailor Man called back to "active duty",,,,,AAAAARRRRRRVVVVVVVV!
True. Very true.
thanks for the kind words AFB.. I'm humbled.
I saw these picture of the Brazilian CV. The Chinese caption translated from google makes no sense..sorry.
Sad that they abandoned that upgrade. Makes me wonder whether they will build a new one as they had also talked about.True. Very true.

Probably not in the near future.
But I had heard they were talking to the French and DCNS about it.
As it is...they have apparently already sidelined the carrier permanently (the Sao Paulo):
Maybe one day they will build a new one and buy the Sea Gripens for it...but I have a feeling it will be a long time.
I added more F-35Cs to my USS Ronald Reagan, CVN-76, one taking off at the bow:
I have 42 aircraft aboard now, including 15 F-35Cs. Two groups of them, one full stealth for SEAD and another fully loaded to come in after the SEAD attacks.
Will not be long before we see those F-35Cs aboard the US carrier, the UK carriers, and others for real!

@Janiz you might like this thread:
I spent quite a bit of time in KArlsruhe in the mid-1970s, so I built the Karlsruhe, F212!
I intend to build a F125 soon, and hope to find a Type 124 too, Will also be building a Type 212.
Had to get my German compliment in...even if they do not have a carrier.
