Kennedy was a true Navy hero and when they are done with his ship it will be the best one in the world and the USA will always be the best Military in the world.
I was on a lot of "battle Groups" in the 80s west pacs, man felt bad for those carrier crews, they couldn't enter port, to big. I can just imagine how many ports could handle these.
Your right. We have all these Nimitz group that are in working condition there scrapping instead of keeping them running at the face of the wars coming. Our Congress's incompetentacy is relentless. How stupid could the be???
If they don't revert to the prior plan and name her the Obama. Also would like to see other legacy names restored like Kittyhawk, Wasp and Hornet. Would love to see a Hornet's squadron of superhornets. "Hornet Actual to all Hornets return to home."
@user-gw9jy6ox1z to update it from oil burning to nuclear you would have had to tear it down to almost a bare hull to replace everything. It was just a more feasible deal to build a completely new, better and easier updated carrier. These new cvn models can basically power a large part of a state if needed. Something the Nimitz class and prior classes just couldn't do.
Gerald R Ford was on the light carrier USS Monterey, during a typhoon the ship took a nasty list to port and Mr. Ford slid across the open deck but grabbed the railing along the edge that sits just above the catwalk that saved him from drowning.
I WAS ONBOARD CV67 FROM 1981 TO 1984. 2 BATTLE E, 2 SUPPLY BLUE ETC. RECEIVED BUTTENBERG AWARD ALSO, THE FIRST AIRCRAFT CARRIER TO RECEIVED THE AWARD. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
First of all, aircraft carriers are ships, not boats. And only the lead ship in the class, USS Gerald R. Ford, will cost $13billion. That is because the lead ship always costs more and takes more time to make it combat-ready since it is used to work out all the inevitable bugs in the new technologies the class incorporates. This can be a very expensive process when a new class incorporates as many new technologies as the Ford class does. Those bugs have now largely been worked out, and subsequent members of the class will cost significantly less, at least when their cost is adjusted for inflation. Also, the experience gained by shipyard workers in building the lead ship and each subsequent ship in the class leads to familiarity with its construction for additional efficiencies as more ships are built. The same, by the way, is true for military aircraft such as the F-35. The unit cost of that plane, when adjusted for inflation and the incorporation of upgrades, decreases with each new production block even as combat effectiveness increases.
Agree with what you said but it also helped that President Trump renegotiated the F-35 price. I wish more of our politicians would hold our defense contractors accountable and help drive down the cost. Just like the Marines growler and LCS, people need to be held accountable and these prices would drop. They need to be held accountable when they don't meet deadlines too. The Constellation class ship has already been pushed back a year on the first ship.
Perhaps, but nowhere near as far and with nowhere near the accuracy as attack aircraft or drones with precision-guided munitions. The Iowas still have their uses in modern war, most notably shore bombardment in support of amphibious landings, for which they can wield more firepower at the ranges required for less cost than any other kind of ship. They could also be converted for many other purposes. One of them would be a the installation of a large number of vertical launch missile cells, giving them a long-range strike capability or enabling them to take up once again the function they spent most of their time on during World War Two, serving as enormous antiaircraft (and now antimissile) escorts for the carriers. Keeping them around a while longer is still a good idea.
I like to think that people serving on our Country Nuclear Aircraft Carriers are the best this Country has to offer along with these people serving aboard the Submarine Service.
The USS Enterprise is going to be the Navy's best aircraft carrier ever built. The aircraft carrier will the latest in technology equipment classified.
You know, here's another thing to think about of saving these ships. Cause there's 25% of the money to fix up and used again granted their old, but if we were at war, you NBD commission.The only thing I got to say is sure we need ships but the old ships should not be decommissioned they still have a use cuz they cost too much and take too long to build these old aircraft carriers could get turned into drone carriers they still haven't used
It'd seem that way, but retrofitting older vessels with the latest navigational, weapons or targeting systems is extremely expensive and in some cases right down impossible. In addition, operating any diesel powered vessel is a losing proposition and limiting to the Navy. The Navy tried this route with the battleships back in the 90's during the gulf war by retrofitting USS Wisconsin with missiles and realized how expensive that became.
@@IamGroot786the battle wagons when brought back to active service in late 80’s & early 90’s cost a fortune in diesel per day when they were under way. I had a friend who was an engineer on the first crew of the New Jersey when she was re commissioned. They cost a fortune to operate when underway but boy oh boy were they ever a sight to behold at sea especially when those 16” cannons were being fired!
We need to get the USS Kennedy on duty ASAP. Two Ford class carriers pack a lot of offensive punch. And when Enterprise comes online that is even better. Moreover, any Nimitz class carriers that are decommissioned need to be kept in a state where they can be brought back to service ASAP.
Also, to be geeky or technical, boats leain into their turn, whereas ships lean out away from their turn. Ships can self-deploy across oceans, whereas boats normally can, especially not thousands of miles. Generally, ships can carry boats and ships (recall the massive transport ship that carried ships that had smaller ships stacked crosswise), but boats cannot carry ships. Most ships will be of the displacement type, as in when at rest or moving, push a LOT of water aside, whereas boats when at speed have most of thei hull above the watet at sea level. A ship plowing through water when at speed - as opposed to boats, which usually will plane or ride above the water up to maybe the first third to 2/3 of the waterline length -will appear to be planing, but they probably are not fully laden/loaded. In that case, they're likely fiercely climbing their own wave, not getting to the point of appearing to launch themselves airborne. Generally, boat, when used regarding/describing submarines, will be used by submariners. In my day in the 80s Navy, woe be unto any sailor who referred to the ship as a boat and got overheard. (In my case, I started reading sbout the Navy feom my 4th grade year, but began reading C. B. Colby books by ~3rd grade, IIRC.) Generally, civilians who have next to no meaningful nexus to maritime world vessels or to military vessels will misuse or interchange boat and ship. It wouldn't be hard for teachers to instill the difference in high schoolers any more than it would be hard for a biology teacher or a chemistry teacher to insist kids correctly name the cells, blastona, nuclei, electron valences, and so on. But... Didn't mean to appear to be one-upping you. Cheers!

Moore (FFG-19), as well as having stood helm watches part of '85 and '86 in my 15 months aboard the "Flexible" Flint (AE-32) as a non-rate. It is impressive and spine tingling how much pain the militaries endure to ensure proper enunciation, articulation, diction, and more go into eliminating or reducing written and spoken long and abbreviated communications error. What is cringe and offensive is when Hollyweird and others let escape the editing bay or post production "Over and Out." That is bonehead incorrectly-used communications phraseology. "Over" means "Your turn to speak", and "Out" means the speaker is done and is terminating its side of the link or circuit. "Out" is the same as hanging up on somebody without at all listening to hear a plea to hang on a sec. So, to say "Over and out* is not only incorrect, as it means "I've said my bit, am hanging up, but, yeh, you go ahead and speak - I'm gone...", it's something that is monitored for correctness and means the (clear or encrypted) circuit monitor or Net guard station will report the ship for incorrect radio usage. Yeah, that's a real thing. Captains and CIC and Radio personnel get written up and lose points. And, that actually hurts. It isn't casual. Sadly, Hollyweird is insular and often refuses to abide by real military advisors the studios pay for for authenticity. Sometimes, big-headed actors do what they want, or directors don't care, and let it out. And, sometimes it's sloppy advisors.) It's also likely why global business and air traffic control use English when outside of one's own country if English is not the local language.
George Bush was a naval pilot who was shot down in the pacific and rescued by a submarine crew. He was the only survivor of his four man crew. On his 18th birthday he enlisted in the armed forces. The youngest pilot in the Navy when he received his wings, he flew 58 combat missions during World War II. That is way more significant than Kennedy's pt boat story.
I think the Kennedy is on time. And now the hull is being put down for the New USS Enterprise. So the Carrier program unlike some of the other Naval Projects are on time.
How “far over budget and behind schedule”??? So What and Who Cares. Give me poop sandwiches for da rest of my life if they could build a new carrier EVERY Repeat EVERY mother freaking Year. Let me say it slower: Every. Mother. Freaking. Year. S.Nielsen, U. S. Military Retired) 1976-2002 Deal with it OR get over it.
Isn’t it ironic that the military industrial complex builds a carrier and then its named after someone that was against them. President Kennedy was for a strong military but not for fighting other countries wars.
Well, JFK made the US engange in Vietnam which ultimately turned into a totally unnecessary war against a country and its people that would never have posed any threat to the USA.
Whoever wrote the script, probably got confused with the USS Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. which was named for the President's older brother. he was a US Naval Aviator who was killed in WW2. I think that it is a museum ship. I don't remember where.
I can't wait to see these beautiful and powerful aircraft carriers sail side by side togather! CVN 78 The USS Gerald R. Ford and the CVN 79 USS John F. Kennedy in 2025. DD. 🌊 🇺🇸📡🛰👍
Informative video. But the AI pronunciation of EMALS made me think of the word emails.. Lol... Someone not familiar with the new catapult system might think we're going to launch ac with emails... 😮
She is a beautiful lady, State of the art war ship, she will do the United States proud this strike group will knock any door down, they should fear her now we have two state of the art strike groups nobody is in her class except the Ford carrier.
In the 1950s HMS Eagle launched over 100 sorties/24 hrs armed and fuelled on excerscise in the Med with the USN...1950s!!.....and it was amechanical cats they had then.....
There was a USS John P. Kennedy, a supply ship built in 1853. Maybe that why they said it was the third ship to bear the name, but clearly not President Kennedy's name.
@@gpawoodyshoneyhole The HELIOS system. High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance. Hypersonic missiles are extremely slow compared to the speed of light. The Ford class carriers will be outfitted with them. Checkmate.
When Ukraine was given Patriot anti missile batteries, they began shooting down hypersonics left and right. In fact they shot down 6 missiles in one day with the Patriot. I'm sure these newer carriers have even more advanced anti missile systems aboard.
The Patriot batteries in Ukraine have been shooting down hypersonic missiles without issue. Navy boats have anti-air systems such as the Patriot but on steroids.
The first USS JOHN F. KENNEDY CVA 67 is Kitty Hawk class just like USS AMERICA CVA 66 and USS CONSTELLATION CVA 64 is also Kitty Class Aircraft Carrier and now the new USS JOYN F. KENNEDY CVAN 79 is a Gerald Ford class airceaft carrier
Aircraft carriers were the apex sea weapon during WW2 due to the superior range advantage of their aircraft over conventional big gunned battle ships. Roll on 80 years and missiles have ranges of thousands of miles which gives them a superior range advantage over aircraft carriers. Add in modern subs and these ships look like vanity projects.
The thought that the Navy would name a ship after a man who stated that “only suckers would serve “ and mocked John McCain who was a POW saying “I don’t like people who get captured during war “
And yet to this day, no one has explained how a 30 kt destroyer was able to ram a 50 kt PT boat...I have always had serious questions about the ramming of PT-109.
Not sure why you said the PLAN was launching these vehicles and then the US was. US has been using this method forever. The PLAN can’t get theirs to work and they skipped over steam catapult. This is why their ship is still in dock. They have already faced delays. Even though you said it’s not sure if they will.
So hate to ask but what's happening with the aircraft carrier enterprise last I heard she was moth balled except a few pieces witch were to be put onto the new enterprise.
They're trying to arrange for scrapping. Lot of process to how to arrange for the secure removal of the reactors, and then to dismantle the rest of the ship.
What remains of it is currently moored next to the under-construction JFK in Newport News. If it remains there my guess that it'll be a huge photo opportunity for when the next Enterprise is ready to be moved there in place of the JFK, many years from now. There doesn't seem to be a hurry to do anything with it, but I haven't really been paying attention to any news on that.
@Re.Configured that sounds bout right considering everything that's going on hopefuly the next enterprise will be ready at some time in the near future and fingers crossed somebody does take advantage and get few photos while they can do ever since they announced they be making a newer enterprise everything went quiet bout it.
I am so amazed how the words used in their videos do not reflect what they are actually trying to say. The US Military PROJECTS power around the work. It is not a project. The BOW of a Naval vessel is not a bow for birthday present. Is English their first language? Sounds like a person trying to learn English. If you want to be confused, watch their videos.
According to the definition of a ship only boat carriers are real ships. 2 current boat carriers can lift an aircraft carrier out of the water. Since there's 8 boat/ship carriers we only have 4 ships. Look at the definition. A boat is any craft that can be lifted onto a ship.
I think the current combat superiority lies in the Air Force and Space Force, not the Navy. Destructive power and flight distance of ultra-high-speed missiles. Securing super powerful lasers and air superiority. Aircraft carriers such as the CVN-79, D-Reagan, and Next Generation (CVN-80) can carry nuclear weapons, such as the Russian Iskander and Avangard missiles (both Mach 25), but they can also carry conventional bombs. . Both are vaporization bombs ``Solntzepek'' and ``high-power dropped fuel vaporization bombs,'' with a power equivalent to 44 tons of TNT, and can sink an aircraft carrier with a single bomb. ‼
Let's see. The EMALS on the Ford still has a reliability problem, it is failing about 15% of its design MTBF. That doesn't sound so good for the US Navy. It also has problems with the blast shields and the elevators. The EMALS problem is said to be a design problem and won't be resolved until 2025. How that affects the Kennedy, remains to be seen. Further, it sounds like the plan for 12 super carriers is on hold while the Navy rethinks its future. The current thinking sounds like the US may back off on super carriers and opt for more small ships, like destroyers. It seems that in today's world, carriers are just a big missile target and can't get in range to launch its aircraft.
QE is more advanced than the Nimitz. In fact it uses a 1/4 of a Ford crew, has a higher sortie rate than they do too. Yes, emals and yes nuclear, but still needs at sea replenishment for aviation fuel and food, so the QE can stay at sea almost indefinitely too just like a Ford can. Ford is amazing, but so is the QE
I served on the old Kennedy (CVA-67). Good times.
Kennedy was a true Navy hero and when they are done with his ship it will be the best one in the world and the USA will always be the best Military in the world.

Moore (FFG-19), as well as having stood helm watches part of '85 and '86 in my 15 months aboard the "Flexible" Flint (AE-32) as a non-rate.
It is impressive and spine tingling how much pain the militaries endure to ensure proper enunciation, articulation, diction, and more go into eliminating or reducing written and spoken long and abbreviated communications error. What is cringe and offensive is when Hollyweird and others let escape the editing bay or post production "Over and Out." That is bonehead incorrectly-used communications phraseology. "Over" means "Your turn to speak", and "Out" means the speaker is done and is terminating its side of the link or circuit. "Out" is the same as hanging up on somebody without at all listening to hear a plea to hang on a sec. So, to say "Over and out* is not only incorrect, as it means "I've said my bit, am hanging up, but, yeh, you go ahead and speak - I'm gone...", it's something that is monitored for correctness and means the (clear or encrypted) circuit monitor or Net guard station will report the ship for incorrect radio usage. Yeah, that's a real thing. Captains and CIC and Radio personnel get written up and lose points. And, that actually hurts. It isn't casual.
Sadly, Hollyweird is insular and often refuses to abide by real military advisors the studios pay for for authenticity. Sometimes, big-headed actors do what they want, or directors don't care, and let it out. And, sometimes it's sloppy advisors.)
It's also likely why global business and air traffic control use English when outside of one's own country if English is not the local language.

George Bush was a naval pilot who was shot down in the pacific and rescued by a submarine crew. He was the only survivor of his four man crew. On his 18th birthday he enlisted in the armed forces. The youngest pilot in the Navy when he received his wings, he flew 58 combat missions during World War II. That is way more significant than Kennedy's pt boat story.
There is already an operating US Super Carrier bearing the name of George H.W. Bush.. so..
Wow Awesome
Project air, power, or project air power?
What I want to know is can this feed poor people?
So how far over budget and behind schedule is this one?
I think the Kennedy is on time. And now the hull is being put down for the New USS Enterprise. So the Carrier program unlike some of the other Naval Projects are on time.
It’s not.
How “far over budget and behind schedule”??? So What and Who Cares. Give me poop sandwiches for da rest of my life if they could build a new carrier EVERY Repeat EVERY mother freaking Year.
Let me say it slower: Every. Mother. Freaking. Year.

Deal with it OR get over it.
Isn’t it ironic that the military industrial complex builds a carrier and then its named after someone that was against them. President Kennedy was for a strong military but not for fighting other countries wars.
Well, JFK made the US engange in Vietnam which ultimately turned into a totally unnecessary war against a country and its people that would never have posed any threat to the USA.
I think this is the second ship named after JFK. Not the third.
Whoever wrote the script, probably got confused with the USS Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. which was named for the President's older brother. he was a US Naval Aviator who was killed in WW2. I think that it is a museum ship. I don't remember where.
thats uss kennydy cnv-79 carriers ships its a nice ships very awsome ships god bless america
I can't wait to see these beautiful and powerful aircraft carriers sail side by side togather! CVN 78 The USS Gerald R. Ford and the CVN 79 USS John F. Kennedy in 2025. DD. 🌊 🇺🇸📡🛰👍
Well done lads!!! Great ships from Shaun of Wales uk

JFK named on 3 separate ship? i only know the kitty hawk and the Gerald Ford class so what's the third one?
I was lucky enough to go on a dependence day cruise in the early 1970s aboard the original JFK.
1:04 Thats PT 1 O 9!
Can you believe he said “PT one hundred nine”? LOL, clueless.
Damn robot voice!! 👎👎👎👎👎👎
Which carrier is next after the enterprise? Nimitz? Hornet?
Informative video. But the AI pronunciation of EMALS made me think of the word emails.. Lol... Someone not familiar with the new catapult system might think we're going to launch ac with emails... 😮
Good luck 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Super big!!
Thank you
Good video if you mute the audio.
USS Donald Trump exists
Pulls out A helicarrier 💀
She is a beautiful lady, State of the art war ship, she will do the United States proud this strike group will knock any door down, they should fear her now we have two state of the art strike groups nobody is in her class except the Ford carrier.
Please also cover the new China aircraft carrier killer hypersonic missiles too. Thank you.
I wonder if the engineers place bets on how far that "dead load car" goes before hitting the water in the tests.
EMRAILS don't work at sea if the expansion joints forward and amidships still run under the cat track thus misalignment of the catapult at sea
In the 1950s HMS Eagle launched over 100 sorties/24 hrs armed and fuelled on excerscise in the Med with the USN...1950s!!.....and it was amechanical cats they had then.....
02:09 "To PRO ject power" not "PRAH ject power. PROjecting means to put something forth, such as military power. "PRAH"ject is something you work on.
There was a USS John P. Kennedy, a supply ship built in 1853. Maybe that why they said it was the third ship to bear the name, but clearly not President Kennedy's name.
Where’s the Laser System that was Promised ASNF…
How do you defend against an hypersonic weapon?
Carrier groups won't let anything near these ships. Hypersonic has been around for a long time and clearly isn't anything we worry about.
@@gpawoodyshoneyhole
The HELIOS system. High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance. Hypersonic missiles are extremely slow compared to the speed of light. The Ford class carriers will be outfitted with them. Checkmate.
When Ukraine was given Patriot anti missile batteries, they began shooting down hypersonics left and right. In fact they shot down 6 missiles in one day with the Patriot. I'm sure these newer carriers have even more advanced anti missile systems aboard.
@@deanladue5367 carriers rarely carry a lot of AA weapons. That is the job for the rest of the fleet.
The Patriot batteries in Ukraine have been shooting down hypersonic missiles without issue. Navy boats have anti-air systems such as the Patriot but on steroids.
The first USS JOHN F. KENNEDY CVA 67 is Kitty Hawk class just like USS AMERICA CVA 66 and USS CONSTELLATION CVA 64 is also Kitty Class Aircraft Carrier and now the new USS JOYN F. KENNEDY CVAN 79 is a Gerald Ford class airceaft carrier
CVN-79
Aircraft carriers were the apex sea weapon during WW2 due to the superior range advantage of their aircraft over conventional big gunned battle ships.
Roll on 80 years and missiles have ranges of thousands of miles which gives them a superior range advantage over aircraft carriers. Add in modern subs and these ships look like vanity projects.
Finally….🇺🇸
The thought that the Navy would name a ship after a man who stated that “only suckers would serve “ and mocked John McCain who was a POW saying “I don’t like people who get captured during war “
That draft dodger
Definitely improvement is still needed with auto generated narration.
Imagine if we had the equivilent in space. Not ten but one in orbit.
You need to state the cost of the older ships in today's dollars ... It will make for a MUCH better comparison.
I am a Plankowner on the USS Abraham Lincoln CVN72. We were looking at $7 Billion back in 1990 for her build. Extravagant cost for that time.
I like foreign produced narration with just enough miss translation too let me know how authentic something US Navy will be.
You notice that too? They sound very Russian at that
Not emails, EMALS
What happened to the Doris Miller?
That's CVN-81. They're building parts for that now.
Under construction.
And yet to this day, no one has explained how a 30 kt destroyer was able to ram a 50 kt PT boat...I have always had serious questions about the ramming of PT-109.
Jimmy Carter came from the silent service. So the USS Jimmy Carter is a fast attack submarine
Us navy is great
Not sure why you said the PLAN was launching these vehicles and then the US was. US has been using this method forever. The PLAN can’t get theirs to work and they skipped over steam catapult. This is why their ship is still in dock. They have already faced delays. Even though you said it’s not sure if they will.
Wasn't Kenny on Epst's List?
How? Epst was 10 when Kennedy died.
Gotta love the AI
Why decommission functioning ships in place of new ones why not just expand the fleet?
because that means you would also need to build more support ships, buy more planes, train more crews etc. Even the US budget isn't unlimited
So hate to ask but what's happening with the aircraft carrier enterprise last I heard she was moth balled except a few pieces witch were to be put onto the new enterprise.
They're trying to arrange for scrapping. Lot of process to how to arrange for the secure removal of the reactors, and then to dismantle the rest of the ship.
Being scrapped.
What remains of it is currently moored next to the under-construction JFK in Newport News. If it remains there my guess that it'll be a huge photo opportunity for when the next Enterprise is ready to be moved there in place of the JFK, many years from now. There doesn't seem to be a hurry to do anything with it, but I haven't really been paying attention to any news on that.
@Re.Configured that sounds bout right considering everything that's going on hopefuly the next enterprise will be ready at some time in the near future and fingers crossed somebody does take advantage and get few photos while they can do ever since they announced they be making a newer enterprise everything went quiet bout it.

"Might be?!"
how to pronounce "project"?
Cool
Great carriers and ours are broken say no more
Not all presidents were in the Navy. Ronald Reagan and Dwight D. Eisenhower were in the Army and they have carriers named after them.
lots of mispronounced words, still an interesting video.
Only 2 ships were named for John F. Kennedy, the third was a destroyer named for his brother Joseph P. Kennedy
That's correct. And there was that carrier that was named after Arthur J Enterprise ... no? Not even close?
I am so amazed how the words used in their videos do not reflect what they are actually trying to say. The US Military PROJECTS power around the work. It is not a project. The BOW of a Naval vessel is not a bow for birthday present. Is English their first language? Sounds like a person trying to learn English. If you want to be confused, watch their videos.
I wonder if the audio is AI.
I'd love to head up an American "defence " company. It looks like they charge whatever they want, and nobody questions any of it.
To put into perspective, building these would cost a lot more in any other country.
I could think of quite a few better names for the most modern class of American aircraft carriers than Gerald Ford.
Why is it the Kennedys rate another Carrier named after them?
The commentator here characterize the aircraft carriers as floating cities, which are more in-line with an airport that floats, a floating airport.
According to the definition of a ship only boat carriers are real ships. 2 current boat carriers can lift an aircraft carrier out of the water. Since there's 8 boat/ship carriers we only have 4 ships. Look at the definition. A boat is any craft that can be lifted onto a ship.
I think the current combat superiority lies in the Air Force and Space Force, not the Navy. Destructive power and flight distance of ultra-high-speed missiles. Securing super powerful lasers and air superiority.
Aircraft carriers such as the CVN-79, D-Reagan, and Next Generation (CVN-80) can carry nuclear weapons, such as the Russian Iskander and Avangard missiles (both Mach 25), but they can also carry conventional bombs. . Both are vaporization bombs ``Solntzepek'' and ``high-power dropped fuel vaporization bombs,'' with a power equivalent to 44 tons of TNT, and can sink an aircraft carrier with a single bomb. ‼
Let's see. The EMALS on the Ford still has a reliability problem, it is failing about 15% of its design MTBF. That doesn't sound so good for the US Navy. It also has problems with the blast shields and the elevators. The EMALS problem is said to be a design problem and won't be resolved until 2025. How that affects the Kennedy, remains to be seen. Further, it sounds like the plan for 12 super carriers is on hold while the Navy rethinks its future. The current thinking sounds like the US may back off on super carriers and opt for more small ships, like destroyers. It seems that in today's world, carriers are just a big missile target and can't get in range to launch its aircraft.
QE is more advanced than the Nimitz.
In fact it uses a 1/4 of a Ford crew, has a higher sortie rate than they do too.
Yes, emals and yes nuclear, but still needs at sea replenishment for aviation fuel and food, so the QE can stay at sea almost indefinitely too just like a Ford can.
Ford is amazing, but so is the QE
