摘要

THE US Navy aircraft carrier USS Gerald R Ford (CVN 78) has completed testing of its new Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS), the service confirmed on February 5. The milestone followed the conclusion of Aircraft Compatibility Testing (ACT) on January 31. ACT involved launching and recovering 211 aircraft at sea, including five different aircraft types, during the 16-day period. As well as EMALS, the trials made use of the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) and Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment (ALRE) systems that are unique to the Ford-class carriers. The testing phase included the first underway catapult launches and arrested landings for the T-45 and E/A-18G from Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 23 (VX-23), as well as the E-2D and C-2A from Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 20 (VX-20). Crews also tested F/A-18Fs from VX-23, which earlier had conducted initial compatibility tests on board Ford in 2017. This second and final round of testing validated the ship's capability to launch and to recover aircraft with ordnance loadout and fuel states mirroring deployed requirements and operating tempos.
