The Aircraft of USS Lexington – Decades Underwater, Yet Still Intact

When I covered the wreck of USS Lexington, I briefly touched on the aircraft surrounding her. Not in any great detail, as that video focused on the ship herself. However, those aircraft are quite impressive in their own right.

Certainly, some of them are very rough. But others are incredibly well preserved. Looking almost like they just sank yesterday, obvious battle damage aside. Well, that and the rusted out engines.

This video will focus on those aircraft, in a bit of a break from the usual pattern.
