NAVY Productions | Life Inside the Crazy Bomb Farm on a Nuclear US Aircraft Carrier @navyproductions | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
When you are aboard a US Navy aircraft carrier is an immense warren of spaces and passageways between bulkheads, each with a purpose. There are galleys and offices, stores, clinics, weight rooms, a barber shop, a recycling center, machine rooms, nuclear reactors, and more.
Deep below the deck of a carrier lies a "secret lurking in the dark". In this video, we will be looking at the room responsible for the immense fear factor of aircraft carriers - the bomb farm.
Aircraft carriers cruising on international waters carrying munition for bomber jets are always ready to deploy within a moment’s notice 24 hours a day.
One of the numerous facilities aboard an aircraft carrier is its bomb-assembly room. Yes, aircraft carriers are equipped with the standard tools and ingredients needed to make a 500-pound bomb.
Naturally, the bomb-assembly room is a locked compartment prohibited to most of the ship's crew members. The room itself is fitted with good lighting systems and fire-combating sprinklers.
Some sailors take some bomb-building courses while they are on an aircraft carrier. These sailors referred to as ordnance handlers, go for their training sessions in the middle of the night when their colleagues and other sailors are fast asleep. Ordnance Handlers in America make an average salary of $49,886 per year or $24 per hour. #aircraftcarrier #usnavy #sailors
