Was there anything more chest rattling than a Prowler at military on the cat? I heard the Super Hornets are quite a bit louder than the older Hornets, and the F-35 is insanely loud when it flies over. Can't imagine that beast on a cat.
Balls of steel. Those Prowler crews knew they were going out to often get radar locked intentionally so they could fire air to ground missiles down their radar pipe. Standing between two of them on cat 1 and 2 in the crotch is just an amazing experience. The only thing cooler is standing between two Tomcats on cat 1 and 2 at afterburner at night.
I miss that kind of action more than any other thing I've ever done since then. Greatest time of my work life was surrounded by Navy jets.
