It is one of three naval carriers with the same design commissioned by the US Navy, including the USS John F. Kennedy (CVN 79), and the future USS Enterprise (CVN 80) costing approximately $42 billion total

Only problem is it's a sitting duck as the Chinese and Russians are/have developed weapons to take out our carrier fleet from a distance.

Our carriers have no defensive capabilities to the new weapons that have been developed to take them out.

I don't think ships are really the key to the future, although a sovereign nation will never take them out because that means we're all in deep shit anyhow

Nuclear submarines are the killer and the security (IMO, I'm no military expert)
