A US Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet has been lost at sea after it fell overboard from the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier while it was being towed on board, the Navy said in a statement on Monday.
I’m still trying to imagine something the size of a carrier making hard turns
A US official said that initial reports from the scene indicated that the Truman made a hard turn to evade Houthi fire, which contributed to the fighter jet falling overboard.

Those are actually pretty agile for their size and can make hard turns
haha carrier drifting is fun to watch, I can definitely see how they lost a jet doing that
They could have done a scandi flick?
just imagine the structural stress from that
