Aircraft carrier sent to Iran faces 'fecal apocalypse'

The US Navy's most expensive ship, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, which was sent to the coast of Iran, has lost its combat capability. It turns out the carrier is experiencing plumbing problems—the toilets are spewing water—and the ship urgently needs to be docked for repairs.

The carrier battle group deployed to Iran has lost its combat capability because its lead carrier, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), has encountered serious sewage problems throughout the ship. According to Western media reports, there are virtually no working toilets, and those that do exist have to wait between 45 minutes and an hour for toilet breaks.



There are over 4600 people on board, the toilets are running low, and queues can last up to 45 minutes. They can't fix the system at sea.



Thus, the US Navy's main strike ship, which the Pentagon planned to play a key role in the strikes on Iran, has been hit by a "fecal apocalypse." The aircraft carrier isn't currently in the mood for strikes; it will likely undergo repairs in a Greek port. The demand for plumbers in Greece has skyrocketed. It's claimed that if the carrier's sewer system isn't repaired soon, the ship will simply drown in its problems.

        What a joke.

        An epic spectacle.
        But this is also a compelling reason not to rush into strikes against Iran. However, Israel could initiate its own attack, along with England. And when and if the sewer system is finally fixed (and this is far from the first time Ford has had this problem; it's a chronic one), it will likely be recalled to the shores of the United States, as a civil war has broken out in Mexico and it's more needed at home.
        Well, Trump doesn't want to bomb Iran, and neither do the American military. They're not exactly eager. But something and someone are forcing Trump to do it.
        But we remember that Donald is God's chosen one, so God protects him, and with him America... Even if in such an exotic way.

      The "innovative" vacuum sewer system was first implemented on the CVN-77 George Bush:

      "...In the two and a half years since the ship's first combat deployment, the ship's biological waste collection and transportation system has completely shut down twice. None of the naval personnel serving on the aircraft carrier have ever heard of all the ship's latrines operating, NavyTimes reports.

      What the manufacturers failed to consider was the need for foolproofing. Despite numerous regulations and requirements, crew members persistently flush feminine hygiene products or used condoms down the toilets. The problem is that one such "gift" is enough to cause one of the two (fore or aft) closed circuits of the vacuum cleaning system to malfunction. Often, to detect the blockage, technicians must retrace all 250 miles (400 kilometers) of drain pipes. Each time, restoring the system to working order requires up to 35 hours of continuous operation.

          4600—that was on the Nimitz. They say the Ford version, thanks to automation, was able to significantly reduce the crew. Some variants had up to 3600, although there's no exact information.

            Hello, we used to have a fairly large public toilet at the bus station with holes, but it was made of concrete.
            In the summer it was almost always completely clogged. About forty years ago, in the summer heat, someone threw a kilogram of yeast in there.
            The next day, the entire contents of the pit spilled out near the bus station
            Firefighters washed it out, but the hole was cleared.
            This bus station has been gone for 15 years now; a new Russian Railways station has been built on this site. Konstantin Khabensky recently filmed the TV series The Method at this station.

And we could easily install cabins here, with pipes running along the sides. The water's outside, it's warm, they won't freeze, they'll just pollute the whole planet, the bastards...

      Even if this is a joke, it's also a hint that such local life-support systems are highly susceptible to a variety of undesirable factors, which could, in principle, become insurmountable. After all, it's important to understand that sewerage systems, like other life-support systems, are a source of major problems that aren't immediately obvious. Therefore, for sabotage, an aircraft carrier is a goldmine. One could say that this applies to all human activity on the planet.

      No, I'm not joking, there really are sewer problems, and they've been going on since 2023, when the ship set out on its maiden voyage. Since then, a ton of money has been spent flushing out calcium deposits from the pipes, and plumber is the least popular job on the ship. But it's also the most in-demand. They say there's an average of one call a day for clogs. The problem is supposed to be resolved during the upcoming major overhaul, which was originally planned for early 2026, but due to the extended voyage, it's been postponed. This is often reported in the American press, and now there's been another surge in news, so ours have picked up on it.

          It's not all that simple, but nothing particularly complicated either. Since time immemorial, latrines have been located in the bow, and all the "good stuff" wasn't left to accumulate, but was immediately flushed away, to the delight of Neptune. Modern monster ships are a different matter. They have a fully functional sewer system with all its "delights." Which is, in fact, what we're seeing.

        It looks like you're right. Our Tver passenger cars are equipped with toilets designed by specialists from NPO Energia, the same company that developed toilets for space missions.

            Toilet paper is a different story. All toilet paper is perforated, dividing the paper into pieces. If you use 3-4 pieces of toilet paper per visit, those 3-4 pieces will fit through any drain. But some characters have such huge butts that 3-4 pieces are simply not enough, and they use half a roll per visit. And half a roll won't fit through every drain.

        There's a theory that on that fateful day, the sailors were served an exotic Italian dish, known as vermicelli. It had meat. And since a single piece of vermicelli resembles a small white worm, someone, not realizing it, started yelling that they were going to feed them worms...

          The pasta factory appeared in Odessa back in the 19th century - the climate was favorable.
          So, I wouldn't say pasta was such a novelty. So, one can only guess what sparked it.

            That's true. But then again, it's unlikely that pasta was particularly widespread—supposedly, this factory was the only one in the entire Russian Empire. Overall, you're right.

              But then again, it's unlikely that pasta was particularly widespread.

              It's funny, but one of the versions of the reasons for the uprising on "Gangut" in 1915 is that they didn't give them pasta!
              Exhausted and angry, the galvanizers sit in the left aft casemate. The three duty officers have gone to get dinner. We're silent. I'm hungry, I feel a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach, but the duty officers are nowhere to be seen.

              It turns out that at that very moment, an event took place near the galley that will forever remain in the memory of everyone who served on the Gangut.

              According to established procedure, on days when the crew loaded coal, they always cooked pasta with meat for dinner, but this time they cooked barley porridge. That's when the explosion occurred.

              — Down with the porridge!

              - Don't take her!

              — The German bastards are making fun of us!

          As I recall, the crew was supposed to be given pasta after loading coal, but they were given "shrapnel" - chopped barley, so they got upset, they really wanted to eat something tasty...

    It certainly made me smile. Whatever you say, we love to make fun of the Americans. A multi-billion dollar floating shed with an air regiment on board, it's just... flooded. They'll pump out the feces, the flush will start working again, and it'll reach its destination. I'd rather read the news about our Kuznetsov's latrine breaking down, say, somewhere in the Mediterranean, than about its protracted repairs, which are in danger of being decommissioned.

      I remember a program about a day in the life... and it was about Northern Fleet Commander Popov and how he visited the Pyotr Velikiy (RK) flagship. The first thing he did was check the latrines, which was very important for the fleet commander, and a month later he stood pale in front of the camera and described how they were "saving" the Kursk submarine. It turns out he shouldn't have checked the wrong thing.

    Up to one and a half tons of crap per day... And their system is weak, weak. Normal-diameter pipes, normal pumps—they don't need any gaskets, even a condom. Generally, problems with vacuum systems are mostly caused by pumps or pipeline leaks, which causes negative pressure to be lost.

    "If you took a shit, you bastard,
    Pull the toilet handle,
    If there is none -
    "Push the shit with your hand!"
    I remember an article about tourist trains with foreigners, back in the Soviet era. In it, the conductors spoke of Americans with undisguised hostility. They defecated everywhere, even in the sinks (?!), and clogged the entire train car's system. It's just their nature.

    The operation of a ship's or submarine's sanitary system requires a responsible approach and knowledge of its design. A young sailor or submarine officer is trained on the design and use of the latrine on their first day. If the flush system isn't switched from seawater to desalinated water at sea, the latrine will quickly collapse.
    On a surface ship, it's simpler; you can do it with a bucket or overboard. But that's unlikely to work with the Americans. Especially since this aircraft carrier has aircraft-type, vacuum-sealed latrines.

I remember when I was serving, we were traveling down the Dnieper on a self-propelled barge from the Chernihiv training ground to our base, and we had to relieve ourselves overboard. It was especially picturesque when two people were holding hands over the water. The latrine was only for officers.

    A warship is like a cruise liner; even the newest aircraft carrier isn't designed to accommodate female personnel. According to some sources, the USS Gerald R. Ford has approximately 600 women serving on board, out of a total crew of 4700. It's practically a floating brothel. Feminine hygiene products clog the fecal system of any ship, and aircraft carriers are no exception. My sympathies go out to the mechanics responsible for these systems.
