[FS2020] - Ford–Class Carriers v1.2.3

 

This package contains static, landable objects for the Ford class ships and is primarily meant as companion of IndiaFoxtEcho F-35C and T-45C aircrafts for carrier recovery and launch operation.. The Gerald R. Ford class is a class of nuclear powered aircraft carriers currently being constructed for the United States Navy.  The class, with a planned total of ten ships, will replace the Navy’s current carriers on a one-for-one basis, starting with the lead ship, Gerald R. Ford replacing Enterprise (CVN-65), and then eventually taking the place of the existing Nimitz-class carriers.  The new vessels have a hull similar to the Nimitz class, but introduce technologies since developed with the CVN(X)/CVN-21 program, such as the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS), as well as other design features intended to improve efficiency and reduce operating costs, including sailing with smaller crews.  This class of aircraft carriers is named after former US President Gerald R. Ford.
