In November of 1963, a C-130 transport aircraft was landed on the deck during a test that involved 21-full stop landings. The Forrestal made several notable mentions in history.
Carriers before were retrofitted with these design features later. The Forestall was the first carrier to be constructed with an angled deck, steam catapults and a optical landing system. CV-59 was the first class of carrier to be called a ‘supercarrier’ and was first commissioned in October of 1955. I love to examine the history and the USS Forrestal is definitely a carrier with some history. Let’s have a look at the newest addition to the fleet and what it might offer us! A bit of history An RF-8A and a pair of F-8C Crusaders overfly Forrestal during her 1962–63 Mediterranean cruise. This carrier is the first CATOBAR style carrier in DCS World that hasn’t originated from first part developer Eagle Dynamics and was instead developed by third party developer Heatblur as part of the DCS: F-14 development. If you haven’t heard, DCS World has a new aircraft carrier in the form of the USS Forrestal.
