F-35C, EMALS demonstrate start of naval aviation’s next century

An F-35C test aircraft is launched Nov. 18 using its new electromagnetic aircraft launch system here. EMALS is a complete carrier-based launch system designed for the future USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) and all future CVN 78-class aircraft carriers. EMALS has six subsystems and will expand the operational capability of the Navy’s future carriers by permitting higher sortie rates and reduced costs compared to legacy systems.
