I C I V -2 DlVl lon V-2 Division of the Air Department is manned by Aviation Boatswain's Mates fEquipmentJ, who are responsible for the operation and maintenance of all four C-7 steam-powered catapults, four aircraft arresting gear engines and the emergency recovery barricade engine. Also, the division Operates and maintains the Integrated Launch and Recovery Television System QILARTSJ and Fresnel Lens Optical Landing System CFLOLSJ by our Interior Communications Specialists. Electrician's Mates maintain and repair all electrical components associated with the catapultsf arresting gear, ILARTSX FLOLS Systems, and our Yeomen type around the clock to provide faithful service to the 180-man division, one of the largest on RANGER. Each RANGER steam catapult is capable of launching an aircraft from 0 to 190 mph in less than three seconds in 253 feet. The Arresting Gear engines absorb 47-million footpounds of energy during each arrested landing and stop an aircraft flying at 150 mph in 330 feet in less than four seconds. V-2 works some of the longest hours on the ship and performs one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. Accomplishing the most glamorous and arduous job on the carrier requires skill, dedication and a commitment to professional excellence. ABEC J. Berrier III ABEC D. Dickson ABEC J. Smith ABEC M.
