BEIJING, July 20 (Xinhua) Taiwan’s” China Times “reporter for the newspaper recently published” 2010 Pacific Rim exercise, “the experience the knowledge, the largest carrier serving the U.S. military opened a” Reagan “war clouds hanging over the atmosphere.

article excerpts are as follows:

following the board the “Chosin number” Aegis cruiser, the newspaper correspondent and tonnage of the world’s largest plane landed at the “Ronald Reagan” aircraft carrier (CVN -76), continue to live off the coast of Hawaii, is being conducted Watch “2010 Pacific Rim exercise.” Stabilizing cross-strait situation, the atmosphere has slowed down the Korean peninsula, but “Reagan” is still ready to go, fighters continue to launch off to maintain exercise intensity for the Pacific conflict situations that may arise exercise on emergency response.

reporters aboard C-2A cargo plane just landed in the “Reagan” on the rear hatch was opened, immediately rushed to the aircraft after a head full of gas, heat and exhaust sound of a bang, even if the head has been wearing a safety helmet and ear heavy, but still can not block after another aircraft taking off and landing of aircraft above the momentum.

This is the fourth newspaper correspondent to catch an aircraft carrier, an interview with the U.S. military exercises with the ship, previously interviewed Stan Nice aircraft carrier, and the two boarded the USS Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier, to board the “Reagan “aircraft carrier is the first time, but war clouds hanging on the carrier deck atmosphere, danger and dire working conditions, not due to a different carrier or the carrier of the old and new sizes vary.

the joint participation of 14 countries, “2010 Pacific Rim exercise,” the U.S. military is from the “Ronald Reagan” featuring the leading heavy aircraft carrier battle group, “Ronald Reagan” on the F/A-18 Hornet fighters continue to launch, or even simulated fleet air defense and ground attack missions, the ship’s officers and men to exercise their duties as if fighting, hanging on the deck, including aircraft bombs, refueling and other actions, although already very skilled, but the U.S. military still patiently repeated training drill.

“Ronald Reagan” aircraft carrier (CVN-76) is the U.S. military into the twenty-first century, the latest and largest vessels after the first aircraft carrier at sea, the name “Reagan”, that is, mark the former U.S. President Ronald Reagan, Air ship’s badge is particularly marked Reagan’s famous “with strength to seek peace.”

Ship has two nuclear reactors, can not dock two decades of sailing to add fuel, but also can hold three million gallons of oil for use on board aircraft.

ship the most powerful fighting force that is equipped with all kinds of eighty-five fighters, but to send the horizon of these aircraft in combat missions, the U.S. is the world rely on the unique ejection technology. This steam catapults on aircraft carrier, the U.S. military nickname CAT, two seconds, you can accelerate to 120, the ejection member must consider the wind direction, air density, aircraft weight, can be loaded with up to three tons of ammunition, F-18 aircraft catapult launch, and this technology is what other countries are difficult to replicate the U.S. aircraft carrier, the biggest bottleneck.

aircraft carrier deck, the average one to two minutes on the aircraft taking off and landing there, the reporter interviewed the ship’s air traffic control room, responsible for the ship’s air traffic control, describes a long flight, the aircraft carrier deck is the world’s most dangerous region, as long as one person the wrong location could disrupt the flight program because of a major accident.

“Reagan” and the other aircraft before the biggest difference, the deck is equipped with the latest fire fighting system.
