Enjoy a 360 degree video of a Super Hornet launching during blue water operations

Enjoy a cat launch with a specialized camera, able to capute a video in 360 degree from inside an F/A-18F Super Hornet launching from USS Harry S. Truman, courtesy of the Strike Fighter Squadron One Zero Three (VFA-103) “Jolly Rogers.”

As already said when commenting the cockpit footage of one of the F/A-18 Hornet of the U.S. Navy demo team during a Blue Angels display, 360° tech is becoming the new trend in aviation videos.

Don’t forget to drag and “navigate” the video as it plays. If you can’t load it, click here.
