Nice video. Well edited. I wonder how old it is? I ask because the only live weapons I saw loaded on those hornets were sidewinders..no bombs. I did see some Mk76(25 pounds) practice bombs Now.. the ship could be conducting training missions in the gulf region.

edit hours later.. Ooppss! My bad. I thought I was looking at USS Harry S Truman which is deployed to the Persian Gulf at this time. John C Stennis is in the Western Pacific.
