$13,000,000,000 Aircraft Carrier… Was Gerald Ford a Mistake?

Описание: The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) is the most expensive warship ever built — with a price tag of over $13 billion. It was supposed to be the ultimate 21st-century aircraft carrier: smarter, faster, and cheaper to operate than the Nimitz class.

But here’s the real question…
Was the Ford-class carrier actually worth it?

In this video, we break down everything:
✅ Why the US Navy created the CVN-21 program
✅ What makes Gerald Ford different from Nimitz carriers
✅ EMALS electromagnetic catapult failures
✅ Advanced arresting gear problems
✅ Weapon elevators software issues
✅ Real sortie rate vs advertised numbers
✅ Why this “future carrier” became a money monster

With new threats rising globally, from hypersonic missiles to drone swarms, aircraft carriers must evolve — but does the Ford-class represent the future… or a warning?
