Aircraft Carriers Intensive - p256

Actually at 5:10 in this video:

You can see them that after launching a Rafale they switch the shuttle or work on it at least before launching a SEM ? Maybe they use specific shuttles? What do you all think?

They both use C13 only the CdG has a clipped version. The crew on a US boat would just have to reduce the pressure compared to their MN counterparts.

Is there any video or picture of the Super Etendard launched from any US Carrier???

As I wrote here there are a lot of videos and pictures with the Rafale but not with the Super Etendar

I don't think they were catching the wires there:

There is one that landed on USS Intrepid... but it won't be launched any time soon

just touch and go. In this thread and I think it was on the USS Ronald Reagan there are picture where the US Navy made some drills with the Argentinan Navy and the Same; Argentinan Navy Super Etendards made touch and go over the US Carrier.
