Aircraft carriers operate in some of the most violent weather on Earth.
Towering waves. Hurricane-force winds. Pitch-black nights at sea.
And yet, on those same moving decks sit billion-dollar fighter jets, fully exposed to the elements.
So how do U.S. Navy aircraft carriers protect their aircraft when extreme storms hit?
In this video, we break down the engineering, procedures, and real-world tactics that keep F/A-18s, F-35s, and support aircraft secure while the carrier itself is being thrown around by the ocean.
You’ll see:
How flight decks are engineered to survive violent seas
The hidden tie-down systems that hold jets in place
Why hangar deck design matters more than you think
What actually happens when a carrier sails directly into a storm
Real incidents where storms tested these systems to the limit
This is how floating airbases survive nature’s worst — without losing jets worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
