I heard that this possibility is a few years away. We will be able to see sat pics 48-72 hours old.

OMG!! Is our government stupid?
Can you look up the coordinates of Mr. President too? Geesh!
All the port visits appear to be big news... they practically broadcast every where the JHSV's are going. I guess they just turn the AIS off when they need to. Still hard to believe that we would let any piece of military hardware be tracked. You certainly can't track our aircraft...

Well, At least that's not on me...LOL....Still pictures taken from on a military installation would be a bad idea if someone was dumb enough to post them.

It is hard to believe they just post up stuff like that.

I helped build both the JHSV spearhead class and LCS independence class. Try 50knots for the JHSV. Bow rises so high you can't see the water from the bridge.

Spearhead is the mama.

Independence is the daddy.

Too cool, that is definitely the 2014 Bimini group following the USNS Spearhead into the harbor. At 3:07 @tim h , appears in bottom left, Tim's walk around comes into picture.

The video is from http://www.PortEvergladesWebcam.com

It is our group on the radio. I guess the camera crew was monitoring channel 69 as we came in.
That is pretty awesome! I bet the kids will love to see the video, I know mine would.
I was wondering where the video came from and I figured that was someone in the group on the radio but was wondering how that was on the video.
