🇺🇸 The third, final part of the test for the "stress resistance" of the hull, ship systems and mechanisms of the US Navy aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford CVN78 was carried out by detonating a powerful underwater charge in the immediate vicinity of its side.
Like the previous two times, this test took place off the eastern shores of US, about 165 kilometers off the coast of Florida, causing the earth to vibrate by 3.9 units.
