Ships shock tests

Would the ship be underway during a shock test? I’m leaning to very low cloud.

Sometimes, as in the first pic below.

Other times not, as in the other images.

Someone should show this film clip and other similar films to Michael Bay (He loves his booms), it might give him ideas for his next action film.

Wouldn't work. Michael Bay only likes low velocity gasoline deflagrations as per the Hollywood Standard.

I dont see the USS Jackson LCS-6 in this video. That ship has another silhouette that I don't recognize.

You got mixed up - MY post had the photo of the LCS-6 shock test in 2016 - Forest Green's link was to a 1965 test, 51 years earlier!
