The perspective from Kensuke's video camera. The aircraft carrier, drawing nearer. On the deck, Sukhoi fighters lined up close to one another.

KENSUKE (OFF):“It's a vintage, pre-Second Impact model.”

UrsusArctos: For the record, Over the Rainbow is actually the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, the last ship of the class to be built before 2000 and the newest carrier in the US Navy at the time the show was produced.


thewayneiac: In addition to the Wizard of Oz reference, Naming the ship "Over the Rainbow" is probably a tribute to Episode 133 of Urusei Yatsura, wherein "Operation Over the Rainbow" is launched from a secret underground base belonging to a character named Asuka Mizunokouji. The association of the Name "Asuka" with the phrase "Over the Rainbow" is not likely to be a coincidence.
