_What happens when you fire giant sleds off aircraft carrier?_
I was impressed by the range. :-)

Those catapults are run on steam.
No. They're electric linear accelerators (railgun) on the Gerald R.
Ford.
That's why they're testing them with sleds first.
Okay. How old is that Gerald R. Ford.
Another question, are those sleds harvested from the harbor?
My guess would be that they float. It would be stupidly expensive otherwise.
This IS the military....
....looked to me like there are some good Tugs, so they know the water
and how to harvest ?
