Description
English: At sea aboard USS Nimitz (CVN 68) Sep. 17, 2002 -- An F/A-18E “Super Hornet” assigned to the “Tophatters” of Strike Fighter Squadron One Four (VFA-14) prepares to launch from one of four steam driven catapults on the ship’s flight deck. This is the first time Nimitz has had an air wing embarked since 1997 following an extensive yard period and homeport move from Norfolk, Va., to San Diego, Calif. VFA-14 is also transitioning from the F-14 “Tomcat” fighter aircraft to the Navy’s newest strike fighter aircraft, the F/A-18 “Super Hornet.” Nimitz is undergoing Tailored Ships Training Availability (TSTA) operations Two and Three off the California coast.
