about

Produced with Newsweek, this film documents an early deployment aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford, offering rare, embedded access to the U.S. Navy’s most advanced aircraft carrier at sea. Living and working alongside the crew, the TangentVector team captured flight operations, command decisions, and the daily rhythm of life on board as the ship and its sailors were pushed into real operational conditions. Filmed on the flight deck and deep within the carrier, the story focuses less on spectacle and more on execution, discipline, and trust. The film frames the USS Ford not as a piece of hardware, but as a living system, where human precision and responsibility ultimately define success.
