South Atlantic Ocean (June 17, 2004) – An Argentine Navy Dassault Super Etendard jet aircraft performs a touch and go landing, during flight operations aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76).

It is armed with two 30mm guns and can hold a variety of air-to-air weapons and air-to-ground munitions.

Removed Bolter from the original phrasing, as the hook is not down, a bolter is when the hook fails to engage a wire on an arrested landing, a touch and go is a pass with the hook up.
