If the turn was hard enough that an aircraft fell off the side, then potentially several aircraft were effectively destroyed by just sliding along the deck into each other.
Lashing the aircraft to the deck is woke and we're not doing that anymore.

Please sink the whole thing next time
Houthi Air Force is 2-0 despite not existing
The Ghost of Sanaa
Houthi Air Force will all be ace pilots not before long, with Comrades Shark, Orca, and Ocean having several assists.
I cannot tell you how badly I want to watch an aircraft carrier sink
The odds of getting to see that increase everyday
It'd be insane, likely an ecological disaster.
If there's ever going to be a single event the marks the end of the empire, that'd be it.
What is this from?
Evangelion 
Who let the DOGE out?
cnn headline leaving out the best bit.
yemeni armed forces assisted comrade ocean in this one:
A US official said that initial reports from the scene indicated that the Truman made a hard turn to evade Houthi fire, which contributed to the fighter jet falling overboard. The Houthi rebel group claimed on Monday to have launched a drone and missile attack on the aircraft carrier, which is in the Red Sea as part of the US military’s major anti-Houthi operation.
Another F/A-18 from the Truman was also “mistakenly fired” upon and shot down by the USS Gettysburg in the Red Sea in December ; both pilots ejected safely.
Lmao
Lol. Lmao, even.
This is why you can't get healthcare in America. Fucking amazing lol
How many times per year does this happen?
Comrade Ocean strikes again.
Is it typical for it to just fall off the front?
that's not very typical, i'd like to make that point
usually the front falls off
only if cardboard and cardboard derivatives are used
A missile? In enemy territory? Chance in a million!
It fell off the ship when it was in transport in tow transitioning from the flight deck to the hangar bay. A Houthi missle and drone was fired at the AC which caused the AC to bank hard and gravity did the rest.
This is gonna make the list of cool things that happened in 2025
