USS Gerald R. Ford - The Largest Warship Ever Built

Описание: USS Gerald R. Ford with the hull number CVN-78 is the most expensive aircraft carrier of the US Navy, worth about $ 13 billion, not to mention the $ 4.7 billion spent on research and development. This ship uses nuclear power, can operate continuously without stopping, under all weather conditions at sea. According to RT, the construction of the aircraft carrier is not an ordinary party. Ford is the product of years of construction, planning and design. More than 5,000 shipbuilders in Newport News and thousands of suppliers across the United States contributed to the first-of-class ship.


The design of USS Gerald R. Ford brings many noticeable upgrades compared to the Nimitz class, especially the higher quality living environment for sailors with quieter sleeping compartments, many entertainment and fitness areas, and better air conditioning system. USS Gerald R. Ford shares a modified Nimitz-class hull form with a completely reconfigured internal space arrangement and flight deck layout.



Gerald R. Ford is intended to be the first of a class of aircraft carriers that offer significant performance improvements over the previous Nimitz class. Gerald R. Ford is equipped with an AN/SPY-3 and AN/SPY-4 active electronically scanned array multi-function radar, and an island that is shorter in length and 6.1m taller than that of the Nimitz class; it is set further aft and closer to the edge of the ship.
