The 7th Fleet Recently seeing the cost and time associated with Buying Aircraft carriers, Put its top Scientists and Engineer's on the case to develop the nations first Battle Carrier capable of carrying 40+ Aircraft and also having stealth capabilities. The Answer is the Prototype Cassandra Class Battle Carrier TM 7th Fleet. Above is a Picture Of the Concept, So far the Facilities to produce this carrier are still under Construction. The first prototype is due out in 1NS Year.
Stats:
Crew:1250
Class: Cassandra
Ship Type: Stealth Carrier
Max Speed:30 Knots
Range: Unlimited (Nuclear powered)
Propulsion:2 Nuclear Reactors
Radar Systems: Aegis Control System
Length: 250 Meters
Draft:35 Feet
Aircraft: Capable of carrying 40 Aircraft and 4 Helicopters.
Armament:
2x 5" Naval guns (Located Port and Starboard, about 40 Meters from the Bow)
5x PHALANX 30MM CIWS
1x VLS System (4 Quad launchers: 16 SAM's, Ship holds 2 Reloads per Launcher)Range:50 miles.
JAMMING SYSTEM Used to defeat hostile radar and Sonar, the ECM/ESM, (Electronic Counter Measures,) jammers will confuse all radar and sonar so that the ships is much harder to be detected or locked onto with radar/sonar guided weapons. This does not give away the position of the ship but it does let the enemy know that they are there. The only way that it can be defeated is with ECCM, (Electronic Counter-Counter Measures.)Range:30 miles
8x CHAFF/FLARE DECOY DISPENSERS
Systems of note:
STEALTH SYSTEMS: The Cassandra is equipped with an advanced Stealth design, and stealth system. These systems disrupt enemy radar and tracking systems, making it difficult for them to lock onto the Carrier with weapons.
LONG-RANGE LASER/SATELLITE RELAY COMMUNICATIONS: The impressive communications array of the Carrier can communicate with up to 500 craft simultaneously at ranges of up to 900 miles (1,440 km). This range can be boosted indefinitely by using satellites or other warships as to relay communications.
LONG-RANGE RADAR: The radar array of the carrier is equally as impressive as the communication system, and can track and identify up to 500 craft simultaneously. The radar system has a 2,000 mile
This Carrier is not for sale yet, it is only in the prototype faze but should be ready to be produced in limited numbers within 1-3 NS years (1-3 RL Week)
For about 1-3 Billion Dollar's
OOC: This is my first Custom Design though most of it is borrowed from Anime , Please post feedback thanks.

Oh, umm, when i said go ahead, i didn't mean the day after you were created :P Wait a little while until you actually have the FACILITIES to make big advanced naval ships.

OOC: LOL Well its not for production yet, Right now its just a Prototype <_< An Experiment in seeing if in the future The 7th fleet could make there own carriers. Don't plan on selling/Enlisting any for about 1-3 weeks. I just added some Fluff <_< So i Can be Realistic.

Stealth would be not being able to be detected, so technically you shouldn't be putting stealth in there seeing as its a big mother f'er.

Take my Lunar Class Stealth Aircraft Carrier

That is a stealth aircraft carrier.

OOC: Well Your ship has more of an optic (visual) Stealth advantage, being lower to the water line, Ware as Radar stealth would deal with Use of More Composite Material to Absorb Radar waves. Honestly Short of Making a "Cloaking device" or Making a Carrier who's materials make it perfectly changes to the color of the sea and has a low profile like the new Raysian Carrier.Their is not much you could do from being Spoted by aircraft or other ships. Though your Carrier does blend into the sea very well and a very good Modle. I will take out the part about the Sonar Invisibility (well part of it) Again I do not want to go beyond my means which is why I am delaying any national production about a week.
