Our Products
Surface Combatants
Royal Edmund-class CV
The standard fleet carrier of the RINN. The Royal Edmund-class is able to project power wherever you may require. While not as capable as a Nimitz-class supercarrier, it is certainly more affordable in terms of crew and budget, especially for smaller navies. Fitted with the SATRAP system licensed from Thales, this carrier is able to land conventional aircraft in conditions up to sea state 5. The integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) provides rapid response and high efficiency from the gas turbine engines. Built to last many generations, the Royal Edmund-class can be modified easily and can operate most present and certainly many future aircraft whether American, Russian, or European. These carriers can come fitted for conventional operations, for STOVL aircraft with a 12-degree ski jump, or with one catapult and the ski jump, and retrofitted as your needs require.
Displacement: 49,200 tons (light), 62,600 tons (deep)

Walmsley-class CVL
Based on the successful Nieland-class cruiser design, the Walmsley-class is affordable for most small nations wanting to deliver a nasty punch on a budget. An axial/straight deck design fitted with a 12-degree ski jump, these ships are able to operate a good number of helicopters and STOVL aircraft quite efficiently. The two inboard elevators use the McTaggart Scott lifts developed for the British Invincible-class CVLs to enable aircraft to be loaded from all four sides. Modifications to the design provide enough space for extensive maintenance work as well as fuel and weapon storage for its aircraft. This ship is great for escort carrier duties and ideal for smaller navies.

Our Products
Surface Combatants
Royal Edmund-class CV
The standard fleet carrier of the RINN. The Royal Edmund-class is able to project power wherever you may require. While not as capable as a Nimitz-class supercarrier, it is certainly more affordable in terms of crew and budget, especially for smaller navies. Fitted with the SATRAP system licensed from Thales, this carrier is able to land conventional aircraft in conditions up to sea state 5. The integrated full electric propulsion (IFEP) provides rapid response and high efficiency from the gas turbine engines. Built to last many generations, the Royal Edmund-class can be modified easily and can operate most present and certainly many future aircraft whether American, Russian, or European. These carriers can come fitted for conventional operations, for STOVL aircraft with a 12-degree ski jump, or with one catapult and the ski jump, and retrofitted as your needs require.
Displacement: 49,200 tons (light), 62,600 tons (deep)

Walmsley-class CVL
Based on the successful Nieland-class cruiser design, the Walmsley-class is affordable for most small nations wanting to deliver a nasty punch on a budget. An axial/straight deck design fitted with a 12-degree ski jump, these ships are able to operate a good number of helicopters and STOVL aircraft quite efficiently. The two inboard elevators use the McTaggart Scott lifts developed for the British Invincible-class CVLs to enable aircraft to be loaded from all four sides. Modifications to the design provide enough space for extensive maintenance work as well as fuel and weapon storage for its aircraft. This ship is great for escort carrier duties and ideal for smaller navies.
