Oct 7, 2008 - sorry I read your comment wrong. I'm not sure but they must have to frequently with only 8500t of aviation fuel.

Oct 7, 2008 - They're part of a larger carrier battle group, which contains auxiliary ships for resupply.

vnazario Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - The carrier can stay on the sea for more than 20yrs non-stop but obviously it has to refuel the jets and the carrier can stay with that jetfuel for around 90 days before having to refuel

Oct 7, 2008 - Magnetic wing tech question.;Wings on Stealth Jet could be made to produce less wing drag by placing small magnetic wings above large wings and make both these wings high charged magnetic metal. Now a Jet has four magnetized wings. They act as vibration reducer. Creating higher speed and control values. Of course computer would control magnetic power of the wings and change magnetism when it turns and lands.

Oct 7, 2008 - There is no magnetic wing, and a magnetic wing would add to much extra weight. If it were to be an electromagnet, it would consume a lot of power. Think about it, how easy it is to pull a magnet from something, especially with the G Forces pulling on the missile about 9 times its own weight. The magnet wouldn't handle it and the missile would just fall out of the magnetic field. The orginal design of a hard point is good enough.

Oct 7, 2008 - impressive killing machines... i.e. war-mongering crap.

YogaNate79 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - I say we put to good use the 12 Nimitz class carriers and the 3 Ford class carriers on order.There's no point in having the most powerful navy in the world if we do not use it against another country. That's why we have a military-- to project and to use FORCE

alexisB1988 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - USS Kitty Hawk, USS Enterprise, USS Nimitz, USS D. Eisenhower,USS Carl Vinson,USS Theodore Roosevelt,USS Abraham Lincoln,USS George Washington,USS John C. Stennis,USS Harry S. Truman,USS Ronald Reagan,USS George H.W. Bush,USS Gerald Ford,

YogaNate79 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - THe USS George H.W. Bush and the USS Gerald Ford are not in service yet, but soon. They will both replace the USS Kitty Hawk and USS Enterprise.

Oct 7, 2008 - so badass

robertochahin Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - Hahaha. Just read in this week's The Economist (Sept 18th Issue) that the Russian only have ONE 23 year old aircraft carrier. When they invade Georgia, they couldn't even get there radios to work properly. They had to use Cellphones to coordinate the battle and lost a bunch of jets including a TU22 strategic bomber. Oh yeah. No survailance drones nor night vision equipment. And now Hugo CHavez is all Macho cause the Russians were able to get 4 ships across the ocean.

Oct 7, 2008 - excellent. well made.

alexisB1988 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - those are all aircraft carrier out of service and the uss enterprize is the USS EnterpriSe and its in the list

duplex97 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - sorry, i get the names mixed up sometimes. but your totally right about that, one of my dads friends was a marine and was stationed in one of those carriers, he envited us to come to this called a tiger cruise, it was amazing.
