1987/88′ish, on board USS John F Kennedy, Camelot 111 and Ace 502 tied down just aft of cat 3 jet blast deflector after a stormy night that left the flight deck a bit wet and some sea mist wafting up. Looks like a choppy morning off North Carolina in December, with the steam from the Gulf Stream softening the edges.
The aircraft positioned such means they were most likely the alert aircraft, positioned for a quick transit to the catapults after man-up and start, but Tophatter triple-stix wouldn’t make much of an alert bird with no ordnance!.
