Great pictures! I love how they are mainly of the aircraft, but it is cool that they were allowed to publish those pictures even!

Those are some amazing pictures and I really enjoyed looking at them. I live in Virginia, and they build many of the military air craft carriers and ships in the Portsmouth area not far from here. I think this is one amazing ship and one that has a lot of capability as evidenced by the navigation equipment and the weaponry.
