The USS Constitution, aka Old Ironsides, is the world’s oldest commissioned war ship still afloat!
She was launched in 1797, one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and the third constructed. The name “Constitution” was among ten names submitted to President George Washington by Secretary of War Timothy Pickering in March or May for the frigates that were to be constructed.
Happy Independence Day America! 🇺🇸🫡

See you at Goodwood.

@CorporalFrisk I saw this one at the Försvarmuseum of Boden, a bit closer to Finland :)
Definitely a pretty missile, although one must wonder if a non F&F design still has enough pros to outweigh the cons today.
Je viens de vivre un truc lunaire, une daronne avec son gosse de 6-7 ans lui dit « regarde Maxence on est rue d’Ulm, ULM, U-L-M, c’est la qu’il y a l’ENS » je les hais tellement💀💀💀
The C-2 Greyhound Has Made Its Last Trap Aboard A Carrier
It's truly the end of an era for naval aviation as the C-2's carrier onboard delivery role has now been turned over to the CMV-22 Osprey.

@CCharpentreau@cogeseurosatory@SafranElecDef@SAFRAN@MBDAGroup@MBDAFrance C'est pour l'instant un concept, une extension éventuelle de capacité. La roquette telle que présentée a une portée de 150km, comme explicité au centre de l'infographie.
Une éventuelle version de 300km n'aura pas les mêmes dimensions
@Jeff21461 Honestly terrible idea to go by car. I don't know where you are located but the Villepinte exhibition park is very well served by public transports
