I get emails everyday just like everybody else does but once in awhile
they are so cool that it's a shame to delete them once you've passed
them on to other people. What I've done here is saved the pictures and
the information so I could share them with all of you. I haven't altered
the pictures or touched them up in anyway so what you see is just how I
received them. I hope you appreciate them as much as I have, enjoy!

3 Carrier Groups: Those of you who were in the
service or who like boats, ships and planes will appreciate this. Three
carriers and the new fighter jet.

The plane in these pictures is still officially the
'Air Vehicle Number 1', a prototype on board the USS George Washington
CVN-73 for catapult fit checks. Not exactly Top Secret but certainly not
yet made public. It will be known as the F/A-37, although specs are
classified it is believed to be Mach 3.5 (top speed in the Mach 4 range)
super-cruise stealth fighter/bomber/interceptor with approximately a
4,000nm range.

For the first time in over 20 some odd years, three
carrier strike groups got together in formation. From top to bottom are
the aircraft carriers, Abraham Lincoln , Kitty Hawk and Ronald Reagan.

We even had Air Force planes fly-over, with a B-2
Stealth Bomber. The only warships not seen in the photos are the 4
nuclear powered submarines standing guard.
