Remarks |
|
|
El Kitty Hawk ha sido uno de los portaaviones de más larga actividad en la Marina de los EEUU, nada menos que 48 años (1961-2009), y el último de propulsión convencional utilizado por dicha marina. Aún se mantiene en la reserva, situación que abandonará cuando entre en servicio el CVN-78 Gerald R. Ford

Remarks |

Vista de la zona de proa del portaaviones "Forrestal" (1955-1993) en una de sus visitas a Palma. En este despliegue por el Mediterráneo del 4 de Junio al 10 de Noviembre del 86 llevaba a bordo el ala aérea embarcada CVW-6 (distintivo de cola AE). Aunque ya comenzaba a predominar el gris en los fuselajes de los aviones aún había cierto colorido en los A-6E, KA-6D, A-7E, EA-6B y F-14A, especialmente en estos últimos pertenecientes a los VF-31 "Tomcatters"

Remarks |
|
|
Antes de subir al Kennedy una gris tarde de nochebuena pasamos por su proa y vemos los A-7 del VA-66DET y A-6 de los Marines del VMA(AW)-533 embarcados. Estaba desplegado en el Mediterráneo desde el 18 de agosto de ese año y no regresaría a Norfolk hasta el 2 de marzo del 87. Llevaba embarcada el Ala Aérea (CVW) 3 código de cola AC. El nombre de este portaaviones dado de baja en el 2007 lo volverá a lucir otro, esta vez de propulsión nuclear, el CVN-79, que entrará en servicio a principios de la próxima década
