    A carrier-based jet aircraft, appearing to be an F/A-18 Hornet or Super Hornet, is being catapult-launched from the flight deck of a naval aircraft carrier at sea. Several flight deck crew members in color-coded jerseys and helmets are positioned nearby observing or directing the launch. The aircraft's afterburners are visibly ignited, producing bright orange flame and steam/exhaust from the catapult system.

    A carrier-based jet aircraft, appearing to be an F/A-18 Hornet or Super Hornet, is being catapult-launched from the flight deck of a naval aircraft carrier at sea. Several flight deck crew members in color-coded jerseys and helmets are positioned nearby observing or directing the launch. The aircraft's afterburners are visibly ignited, producing bright orange flame and steam/exhaust from the catapult system.
    The image shows flight deck operations aboard a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, with a catapult officer (shooter) in a characteristic launch signal pose next to an F/A-18 Hornet. The foreground aircraft bears tail code 'AC' and modex '204' with a checkered tail stripe, while a second F/A-18 marked 'VMFA-312' and modex '205' is visible in the background. Multiple flight deck crew members in colored jerseys are visible performing various roles.
    A U.S. Navy aircraft carrier flight deck is shown during active flight operations. A yellow-shirted aircraft director (plane handler) is signaling with raised hands toward an F/A-18 Hornet or Super Hornet positioned on the catapult track. Multiple flight deck crew members in color-coded jerseys are visible performing their respective roles.
    A U.S. Navy F/A-18 Hornet (modex 301) is positioned on the flight deck of USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75), a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Deck crew in colored jerseys are visible directing or working around the aircraft. The scene appears to be routine flight deck operations under overcast skies.
