- The “new navy” is the focus of this 1969 educational documentary presented by the United States Navy - “The Attack Carrier: From USS Langley CV1 to USS Enterprise CVAN65.” The color film traces the development and history of aircraft carriers used by the United States Navy. Aircraft that have been used by the Navy, such as the Grumman A-6 Intruder and McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II, also are featured. The USS Enterprise is shown at sea at mark 01:14, as several fighters launch from her deck and the narrator flashes back near mark 02:30 to the old wooden USS Langley, the Navy’s first aircraft carrier that had been converted in 1920 from the bulk cargo ship USS Jupiter (AC-3). At mark 04:08 we see Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, known as the architect of naval aviation, who presented the idea of a stronger navy to President Calvin Coolidge and led to the creation of the Langley. At mark 04:50 we see footage of Lieutenant Commander Godfrey de Courcelles Chevalier making the first landing in an Aeromarine 39B. Following a discussion of enhanced airplane design, the film discusses how pilots experimented with various bombing techniques to uncover new methods of attack. At the same time, the navy was developing new doctrine designed around aircraft carriers. The USS Lexington (CV2) and the USS Saratoga (CV3) soon followed with marked improvements over their forefather. By mark 15:00, we are transported to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941, and reminded how, thankfully, no aircraft carrier was in the harbor at the time of the Japanese attack, as we see footage from that fateful day. The fact that the Japanese launched their attack from aircraft carriers bolstered claims by Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz and Fleet Admiral William H. Halsey that naval aviation needed to be a major part of the navy’s future. Following several minutes of World War II combat footage, including scenes with the Grumman F6F Hellcat and Vought F4U Corsair beginning near mark 19:00 and kamikaze attacks by the Japanese, the film discusses a new threat to aircraft carriers via new high-speed jets at mark 23:10. The successful landing of an FH-1 Phantom in 1946 alleviated those fears. After a discussion of aircraft carrier warfare in the Korean War at mark 24:17, the narrator notes how carriers adapted to the heavier jet aircraft by strengthening their structure and utilizing steam-catapults for jets, the first of which was used aboard the USS Hancock (CV-19), as shown at mark 25:00. By 1963, the USS Midway was using fully automatic landings, we are told near mark 26:00. The film ends with a scene of the “new” USS Enterprise (CVN-65) at sea, the world’s first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and “a complex instrument of war or peace.”

Thank you to all who served, serving in our Navy. I thank you
A us army veteran 🇺🇸
Thank you sir.
Former Gunners Mate 2nd.
I’m a U S Navy vet, served Oct. 18,1971 to Aug. 15,1975 ! Thankyou ! Thankyou for your service also !
And thank you too, Mr Rivera! 🇺🇸
Stepped onboard The Big E once in 2000. Gone but not forgotten. I served on USS Semmes DDG 18, USS Cape Cod AD 43, USS Kinkaid DD 965, USS Whidbey Island LSD 41, and USS Wasp LHD 1. My brother served on USS Midway CV 41 and USS Missouri BB 63.

I thought you were on Oriskany?
In the interest of historical accuracy, the first jet landing aboard a ship was made by a Brit. Also the angled deck and the Fresnel lens system were British innovations.

@@peterreeves4184 >> Quite. It’s a shame most of those guys are no longer with us…there’s a fair amount of extant video though! Hard to fathom that there’s no catapult yet on the big British carriers. Those AEW helos are ingenious but really no substitute for an E-2.
I thought the yanks invented everything?
The land, the air, the sea. . . Breathing!
Radar was a brit invention
@@kollusion1 nope we didn't but we sure work more hours then any other country
Proud to have served aboard CVAN Enterprise, WESPAC '74 - '75
Saratoga CV-60..VA-75..WestPac '72. Had the time of my life..
I remember her when she was brand spankin' new! Also USS Long Beach CGN 9. My buddy served aboard Bainbridge DLGN 25.
All gone now...
not sure if anyone gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my brother lately =)
@Stephen Yosef yea, I have been using InstaFlixxer for years myself =)
@Stephen Yosef yea, been using InstaFlixxer for since december myself :)
It’s kindof a shame the Navy’s given up on nuclear surface ships, save for carriers. Of course, we don’t have a pressing need for nuclear icebreakers like the Russians, either.
My classmate at OS school went to the Big E. I went the Indy. The Enterprise was an awesome bird farm. Thanks to PF for posting this video!
It is worth remembering, that the first landing and takeoff aboard an aircraft carrier by a jet-powered aircraft were made in 1945 by Eric Brown on the RN light carrier HMS Ocean. He flew a DH.100 Sea Vampire.
Actually, the 1st "jet powered" landing on an aircraft carrier was performed by Ensign J.C. "Jake" West in a Ryan FR-1 "Fireball" aboard the USS Wake Island, CVE-65, 1 month before the deHavilland landed on HMS Ocean. The Ryan FR-1 was powered by the GE J31 Turbojet and a Wright Cyclone piston engine. The jet was used to increase cruise and top end speeds. However, on that day, the piston engine quit working, so West feathered the prop (even if the engine was still running, the feathered prop would have negated any produced power) and West decided to start up the J31. The jet was shut down when not in use, so it had to be started up after the piston engine died. West was then able to make the landing aboard USS Wake Island instead of, alternatively, bailing out or ditching in the sea. Because the Ryan Fireball was mix-powered, piston engine/jet engine combo, it is often forgotten that when it made its unplanned landing on 6 November 1945, it did so on jet power alone. Of course, Lt. Cdr. Brown's de Havilland Vampire was a pure jet design and the landing was a properly planned affair. They were all pioneers and they all contributed to the development of jet powered naval aircraft and each must be remembered for his contributions.
@@johncashwell1024 Thanks for this interesting history fact. Wasn't aware or maybe forgot it...
By the time of this movie, the workhorses of the Tonkin Bay Yacht Club were still primarily the rebuilt Essex class CV-11 USS Intrepid and CV-19 USS Hancock, with an unfortunate cruise of the USS Forrestal thrown in.
Intrepid was just finishing up as a "special attack carrier" in 1969, before returning to her sub-hunting duties.
@@fantom5894 That would have been her deployment 4JUN68 to 8FEB69 with Carrier Air Wing Ten (CVW-10). The Hanna was also on Yankee Station with an almost simultaneous deployment from 18JUL68 until 3MAR69 with CVW-21. Hanna had several other deployments to Yankee Station later.
A very cool video of what was starting to be developed over 100 years ago, up until what was available when this film was released, over 63 years ago... Nice!!!
"Cantankerous curmudgeon" I've never heard a more beautiful description
Stationed in board her from 79 to 82. West pack 82 Loved her she was beautiful
The beginning of the role of the carrier as the nucleus of a task force designed to respond within 72 hrs and appear off the shores of any country in the world.
Wow!
Priceless. 😎
Thank you.
Always amazing to see that mankind can dream of something for decades even centuries, but once somebody shows it can be done , the speed at which it then progresses is astounding. Flight/ warbirds/carriers/jets/sound barrier/space....
I'm forever grateful for our USA troops and all the elements of the forces, my uncle Jack flew the F4 phantom in Vietnam, in late 60's, early 70's, to all who serve the USA, Thank you🙏🇺🇸
23:34 "First jet carrier landing".... Me expecting difficult approach, unsafe at ramp, rough trap. Me getting... perfect 3/4 nm approach wings level, OK pass, good trap. No drama.
This is a well made documentary video.
👍
Skipped right over the midways 41, 42, 43..
Great show 👌
Served aboard USS KITTY HAWK. 82-85. Ships company, Deck Department.👍👍⚓⚓🇺🇲🇺🇲
Excellent
One big improvement in the early days was stronger and stronger Landing Gear, to withstand the forces of slamming down on the deck of those early flattops.
The Wright brothers used a catapult system to launch their first planes.
Awesome 👍🇳🇿

USS Ranger CV-61. 1976-1980
My dad was a plank owner on her he loved that ship. The stories he told us all.
Greatest USA.!!!
Whenever a loaded Tomcat was shot from the catapult the recoil could even be felt in the propulsion plants of Enterprise.
Great vid, but I must squirm @ pix of the beautiful Oscar standing in 4 the equally beautiful Zero.
Enterprise Retired But New One Coming
Sooner than she was expected to be delivered
You keep forgetting too mention all the aircraft carriers innovations were British ie steam catapults and deck landing lights and much later angled flight decks
Is it possible to disappear the time-code? It really detracts from otherwise-interesting films.
The Big E
What aircraft is that at the 12:00 mark?
Great old motivational video but inaccurate regarding first steam catapult installation, first angled landing deck and first mirror landing system as all three were British innovations implemented first on Royal Navy WW2 era vessels shortly after the war.
"Forgive ... me".
14:46 ...Spongebob?
Yea, a little SpongeBob music, please!
but where was the french during pacific war ??
on the eastern frontline with germans
and in 1945 winner of ww2
the mysteries of history...
@@cyndialver2130 Compiègne darling
no the royal navy sunk only one destroyer and one fregate damage fortely a cruser at mers el kebir july 1940
the french fleet prefer to explose itself in november in november 1942
5 cuiraser 12 cruser 24 other ship
in toulon
you know for me it s another french military genius action like dien bien phu cambodia 1954
or sedan 1870
but why it is so geniusly ???
i will tell you at the end of the war we were seeing like the winner of the world war 2
and most of the french dies on the eastern frontline under werhmacht and SS uniform
and we have the veto vote at the U.N
and if the nazis would win the war we were also victorious ....is that genius or not
but i know an actual story about royal navy
the prince andrew Windsor first lord of Amirauté was one of the best pensionnary of the jefrey epstein island in bahamas epstsein fim him with childs
he was also chief of the naval intelligence how many nato documents he gave to kgb and fsb
like donald trump was the poutine toy
andrew Windsor chief of naval intelligence service his the worst pig on planet earth
bonne journée ma cherie 💋😂
I served in a foxhole in Quan Tri, Asha valley, Chu Lai. 3 hot meals and clean sheets a day....oh. NOT.....sorry...just crotch rot and jungle rot. And emersion foot...and ambic disentary.
