Venezuelan Fighter Jets Attack U.S. Carrier — Navy’s Response Surprises
At 6:12 a.m., 110 nautical miles north of La Guaira, a high-stakes game of chicken unfolds in the Caribbean Sea. Three Venezuelan Su-30MK2 fighter jets drop below 2,000 feet, accelerating toward the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78). Their strategy is based on speed and visual intimidation. The U.S. Navy’s response is based on math, sensors, and silence.
In this video, we break down a hypothetical encounter between a modern Carrier Strike Group and shore-based adversaries. We analyze how the Aegis Combat System, F-35C Lightning II, and E-2D Hawkeye function not just as machines, but as a networked "living entity" that neutralizes threats before they even reach visual range.
The USS Gerald R. Ford displaces over 100,000 tons, powered by two A1B nuclear reactors and operated by nearly 5,000 personnel.
We discuss the AN/SPY-1 and SPY-6 capabilities, tracking hundreds of targets simultaneously with air-search ranges exceeding 175 nautical miles.
While the carrier sustains 150–200 sorties per day, the opposing Su-30s burn roughly 265–400 gallons of fuel in a single mission just to make a political point.
Witness how a decision cycle measured in seconds defeats a strategy built on bravado.
