These planes and pilots are well prepared for arrestment failures. genuinely surprised that was what caused this most recent crash

It's a long deployment and much more active than they usually are. They're likely getting fatigued and overlooking things.

they also were under missile attack during the last 2 losses, and drone attack during the 1st. Ansarallah has directly caused these losses, it's not just American failure it's the effective actions of the world's bravest troops

they were under ASBM attack at the time, causing things to get hectic and the carrier to be doing evasive maneuvers
