Steve's Video Of The Day: "Hornets From Hell"!

The USS Hornet is a name that has proudly been borne by US Navy ships since 1775. USS Hornet CV-8, an aircraft carrier, was the platform from which Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle launched his B-25s to strike Japan during his famous "Doolittle Raid". USS Hornet CV-12, also an aircraft carrier, flawlessly recovered the astronauts from the Apollo 11 and Apollo 12 Lunar Missions.

Today, the name "Hornet" is proudly borne by the US Navy's F/A-18 E and F Super Hornet maritime strike attack aircraft. The F-18 "Hornet" is the most "lethal" carrier-based attack aircraft in service today.

There is another "warrior" that bears the name hornet, and this one is probably the most "lethal" of all, able to search and destroy. 30 of these warriors can attack and vanquish 30,000 foes in a matter of hours. Unbelievable numbers! Alas, this warrior has one weakness, and can be exploited if adversaries are aware of it. Watch!!!
