200,000? I have never, ever in my life heard anything more un-relastic..It boggles the mind that people would even think of something like that.......


EDIT: Opps...forgot the Un-

OK, so...

An F-14 is 38 ft by 62 ft (minimum size), or 2,356 square feet per plane

Times 200,000 planes is 471.2 million square feet.

That is a total plane storage space of 10,817.26 acres, or 43.77 square kilometers.

Total Size of the Vatican City: 0.44 square kilometers.

In other words, this carrier is OVER 100 TIMES BIGGER THAN A REAL-LIFE NATION!!!

If im not mistaken the U.S.S Nimitz can only care something in the area of 86. 200,000 divided by 86 is something like 2325. This carrier you speak of has the Aircraft capacity 2325 times more then one of the largest AirCraft carriers in the world.

*SIGH*

he doesnt have the 600 billion. the guy who bid took back the bid later, ignore this guy, he just wants stuff he cant afford

The largest carrier currently in service in RL, I believe.

Yes, and that 100 times as big as the Vatican does not include anything except for storage space for the planes. No runway, no control tower, etc.

I think the George Washington (Nimitz Class) was built a little bigger.

Well I was referring to the Nimitz Class, not the actual ship.

Yeah yeah..Same deal =P Either way..I think we can say we have proven this carrier is unfeasable (sp?). Im off.

Notes
As the final product of the long-running CVX program, the Dominion-class Nuclear Aircraft Carrier is expected to replace the long-serving force of Kitty Hawk-class Aircraft Carriers currently in service with the Dominion of Kotterdam.

Including several new systems, such as an advanced Jet Blast Deflector comprised of metal panels coated with heat-dissipating ceramic tiles similiar to those used on reentry vehicles, the new JBD will resist far greater levels of heat with far less maintenance. As well, the new integrated multi-function radar system will be far less maintenance intensive than the series of individual systems used on the Kitty Hawk.

Amongst the many fighters intended to be stationed aboard is the carrier variant of the Dominion of Kotterdam's first Stealth Fighter, the F-23C Black Widow II.

The fact that you belive you can afford an aircraft carrier THAT big proves your stupidity. The United States of America couldnt build something that big.
