The Carrier was commissioned in 2017 by former President, Donald Trump, in Virginia. [{ "selector": ".oxpfq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

It is a first-in-class aircraft carrier of US Navy, and the first new aircraft carrier designed in over 40 years. [{ "selector": ".mjezm-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

First-in-class technology includes a new nuclear plant, generating 3 times the amount of power.

The USS Gerald R. Ford is 1,092.2 feet long with a beam of 134 feet. [{ "selector": ".cftbm-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

It has an advanced arresting gear and electromagnetic aircraft launch system (EMALS). [{ "selector": ".xiton-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

EMALS uses electric power to launch aircraft off the vessel instead of the steam catapult system. [{ "selector": ".qdcxl-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

The vessel is designed to carry a wider variety of planes, and operate with fewer sailors. [{ "selector": ".dlomk-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Compared to Nimitz-class carriers, the Ford-class carriers have more than 23 new or modified systems. [{ "selector": ".spnra-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 436px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]
