Скачать или смотреть Mexican Naval Ship the Cuauhtémoc Visits Belfast

The magnificent masts of Tall Ships have returned once again to Belfast’s Donegall Quay and Queen's Quay quaysides, signalling the start of one of the city’s most popular family events, the Belfast Titanic Maritime Festival.
This is the very impressive Mexican Naval training ship the 'Cuauhtémoc'. It is probably the largest tall ship I have ever seen down at the Belfast docks.
ARM Cuauhtémoc is named for the last Mexica Hueyi Tlatoani Cuauhtémoc who was captured and executed in 1525.
( Cuauhtémoc also known as Cuauhtemotzín, Guatimozín or Guatémoc; c. 1495) was the Aztec ruler (tlatoani) of Tenochtitlan from 1520 to 1521, making him the last Aztec Emperor. The name Cuauhtemōc means "one who has descended like an eagle", and is commonly rendered in English as "Descending Eagle", as in the moment when an eagle folds its wings and plummets down to strike its prey. This is a name that implies aggressiveness and determination. )
This naval training ship is the last of four sister ships built by the Naval Shipyards of Bilbao, Spain, in 1982, all built to a design similar to the 1930 designs of the German firm Blohm & Voss, like Gorch Fock, USCGC Eagle and the NRP Sagres[
Cuauhtémoc is a sailing ambassador for her home country and a frequent visitor to world ports, having sailed over 400,000 nautical miles (700,000 km) in her 23 years of service, with appearances at the Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races, ASTA Tall Ships Challenges, Sail Osaka, and others.

Latest Tragic New 18th May 2025
A Mexican navy ship has crashed into New York's Brooklyn Bridge, leaving two crew members dead and at least 17 other people injured.
The Mexican navy said in a post on X that the Cuauhtemoc, an academy training vessel with 277 people on board, was damaged in the collision.
Video posted online showed the ship, which was flying a large Mexican flag, travelling in reverse and hitting the underside of the bridge.
It sheared the top of its masts and drifted towards the Brooklyn side of the East River as onlookers scrambled away from shore.
Naval cadets dressed in white uniforms could be seen dangling from the ship's crossbeams after the crash.
New York City mayor Eric Adams said two people had died and 17 others were injured, including two who were in a critical condition.
Witnesses said they saw two people removed from the ship on stretchers.
No one is thought to have fallen into the water.
The 147ft (45m) masts were too tall to clear the arched bridge and toppled when the vessel, named after the last Aztec emperor, sailed in reverse underneath.
The Cuauhtemoc, a Mexican navy training ship, struck the Brooklyn Bridge in New York on Saturday evening
It was unclear what caused the ship to veer off course. New York police chief Wilson Aramboles said the ship had just left a Manhattan pier and was supposed to have been headed out to sea, not towards the bridge.
He said an initial report suggested the vessel lost power due to a mechanical problem.

Police commissioner Jessica Tisch said the National Transportation Safety Board would be taking over the investigation.
Mr Adams said a "unified effort" was under way to "make sure that we look after all of those who were on the ship".
The bridge, which is a main conduit between Manhattan and Brooklyn, has since reopened with no major damage.
The Cuauhtemoc is about 297ft (90m) long and 40ft (12m) wide, according to the Mexican navy. It was built in Spain and sailed for the first time in 1982.
Each year, it sets out at the end of classes at the naval military school to finish cadets' training.
It left the Mexican port of Acapulco, on the Pacific coast, on 6 April with 277 people onboard, the navy said at the time.
