The America’s Next Super Aircraft Carrier - USS John F. Kennedy
"CVN-79 USS John F. Kennedy” will be the latest addition to the fleet of the US Navy. After completing its construction in 2025, this giant aircraft carrier will be added to the U.S. Pacific fleet, providing its assistance in power projection, maritime security, and humanitarian assistance operations around the world. This will be the second warship that belongs to the Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier.

I'm not sure if this was a reference to Star Trek or not but it might actually be just a renaming of an old carrier. During WW2 one of the first carriers the US Navy put out was the USS Enterprise and I believe it sank in the Battle of Midway during 1942. This might be a remembrance to that, or it could be that the admiralty has a preference for Star Trek, either way.

If nuclear reactors are good and safe enough for strategic assets like aircraft carriers, why aren't we powering our cities with them more? Why are we not prioritizing lowering cost and deployment time of nuclear power plants at the same rate we are improving our military tech?
@DmitriVanderbilt
2 күн бұрын
Cost and time. A traditional nuke plant is like building an aircraft carrier, funnily, both costs billions and take many years to construct. The nuclear industry is also hampered by tight regulatory and national security controls; other energy sectors do not have these impediments and are easier and cheaper to undertake in (they also provide returns on investments much quicker than waiting 10 years for a nuclear plant to be up and running). Next-gen nuclear technologies are trying to address these problems; SMR and similar technologies hope to bring costs down by improving the "manufacturability" of reactors vs existing plants which are like building a bespoke design every time (due to location and land constraints). Small reactors the sir of, say, a standard shipping container, would open up use in a lot more areas, drastically expand the market, and bring down costs - but again, they are subject to extreme regulatory restrictions and most companies are still in infancy or preliminary stages. Fusion is also a hopeful Avenue for the future, but installations like ITER are again huge and expensive and take eons to build. The private sector is working on smaller, more agile solutions, but as always fusion seems "20 years away" as it has been since the 60s.

It is absurd that it has been delayed this long with so many cost overruns. Our congress is asleep at the wheel. This is what happens when you shrink the number of military companies receiving government contracts to build our weapons system from guns to jets to ships. It is basic supply and demand economics. If you have only a few companies that can carry out work like Shipbuilding and fighter jets, then it's going to cost you more. Ukraine has proven that you need a lot of attritable systems. 13 Billion for one ship that takes 30 years to build just won't cut it. This kind of shit leaves us very vulnerable in a peer-to-peer conflict. The only thing we have working for us is how inept Russia and China are at the moment. Too many companies in the defense industry were allowed to consolidate and merge, and this is the result; all our weapons systems are absurdly expensive, and if we got into a shooting war with China, which is currently acting like a bag of dicks, we'd be in trouble.

Share your thoughts: Me: how many cheap Chinese missiles will it take to overwhelm the AAA defenses on the entire carrier battle group and get one to hit one of those two nuclear reactors, wasting $13 billlion, 9,000 sailors, and contaminating that part of the ocean for the rest of our species' existence? I bet they won't have to spend $13 billion to get enough of those missiles to do it. This is a vanity project, a luxury that we frankly can't afford anymore, especially not with the idiots in charge of the State Dept and DoD right now.

So your problem has nothing to do with weapons procurement, which you obviously know nothing about. You're problem is about "wokeness", which truthfully I don't give a fuck about, the Navy can choose to do whatever the fuck they want and support whatever causes they choose to if it makes the crews happy. They know how to do their jobs on that carrier and that's the important part, trans not trans, could care less. If you can targets weapons, maintain battle systems, sortie aircraft, why does it matter? Does them not doing that automatically make them better? Carriers are the premiere surface vessel, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. They're not invincible sure, but they're still basically mobile fortresses which can move in and out of protective rings, can dish out punishment quick and harsh, and are basically global information centers. If an attack is ever going to seriously harm the operability of a USN carrier, it's not going to be some " cheap missile" because "cheap missiles" is like swatting flies, and it's not going to be without relations as an entire swarm of warplanes, bombers, and return fire pulverize anything and everything in retaliation.
