First went aboard the Nimitz back in the 70s. My last opportunity to be aboard was during a combat/weapons system upgrade in 2004. She’s provided an amazing service to the United States during her lifetime. Bravo Zulu !
I worked on it in newport news before it left for norfolk. I also worked on it after several years, installing new printers in the suprad room in the island house.😊😊
The almighty Nimitz sailed out of San Diego "FIGHTERTOWN" USA. Speaking for myself, I make sure that any sailor or Marine within my scope, who dares, departs happily out of the Gaslamp Quarter. BON VOYAGE! 🎉
If the navy does not have the money for another round of complex overhaul for this ship to be at same technological level as a Ford class carrier, it may still be a good idea to keep her as a training ship home-based in the Atlantic region.
Nimitz had her day. She had numerous BUGS to be remedied, had her growing pains. She matured to become a First Rate Nuclear Carrier! The very Same worthless bastards. Who criticize Nimitz now Criticize Ford class. Yeah and a few are around who criticize Enterprise. They are immortal !
the worlds court needs to take into account that people had to be smart to be in the us navy so they knew what they were doing when they would attack contrys with no air defence so they could not defend themselfs the pilots modt deffanetly knew it .

Merci, Gracias, Zulu

Don't retire any nimitz class carriers
The Ford class will never meet the readiness of the Nimitz class.
do not retire it , give it another 25
The reactors don't have enough spare power generation for the newest systems. Plus that would require a refuel which costs about $4B
Nimitz class carriers has 4 catapults not 3 like that chinese carrier..
That PLAN CARRIER HAS GREATER AERIAL TANKER SUPPORT! SO STFU
@@HENRISTARKSUS Carriers can operate for 25 years without refueling
With 3 catapults, Nimitz also has a fleet of F-16
The Nimitz has 4 cats not 3, and the F16 is NOT one of the aircraft types used aboard. I’d recommend spending some extra time on your research…
🇺🇸👍🙂
It is considered by the US as the oldest aircraft carrier but it is still 10x capable than any chinese modern carriers.😂😂😂
