Couldn't they just Chinook those containers onto the aircraft carrier deck and crack them open one by one? And when you've got the intel the U.S. navy has, you don't have to crack them all open, just the ones with the bad stuff
Don’t hate me I’m just trying to be real here. If we’re talking about 20k containers, what’s a fair amount of time to assume it would take to move each container by helicopter? 7 mins all in?
Let’s use 7 just for an example.
20,000 x 7 mins = 140,000 mins total or 2333 hours. Even if you had 12 Chinooks working round the clock, that would be like 200 hours of non stop work.
There are up to 20,000 containers on that ship. Unloading that amount would be a major task and take some time.
Good thing cargo is designed to be unloaded/loaded. What’s the point of your comment?
Do they have unloading docks in the Bitter Lake?
Unloading a full cargo ship vessel in the middle of the water would take a week just to make a solid plan - if it were even possible.
