    A carrier-based jet fighter, consistent with an F/A-18 Hornet or Super Hornet, is captured mid-catapult launch from an aircraft carrier flight deck. Steam from the catapult system billows around the aircraft as it accelerates down the deck. A missile or ordnance item is visible to the right, appearing to have been jettisoned or is in motion.

    181019-N-EA818-0151 NORWEGIAN SEA (Oct. 19, 2018) An F/A-18F Super Hornet, assigned to the “Red Rippers” of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 11, launches from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75). For the first time in nearly 30 years, a U.S. aircraft carrier has entered the Arctic Circle. Accompanied by select ships from Carrier Strike Group Eight (CSG- 8), Harry S. Truman traveled north to demonstrate the flexibility and toughness of U.S. naval forces through high-end warfare training with regional allies and partners.

    A U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet (modality number 110) is captured in a dramatic rear-facing shot during a carrier launch over open ocean. The aircraft is in full afterburner, with twin engine exhaust flames visible in color against an otherwise near-monochromatic scene. A Prandtl-Glauert condensation cloud (vapor cone) is visibly forming around the wings and fuselage, indicating high-speed, high-humidity conditions.
