If any Nation out there has Aircraft Carriers that can crusie at about this range (50MPH-100 MPH) please let me know. Mine can only travel at 10 MPH when loaded and I'm in the midest of a war and my carriers are sinking faster then I can make them.

50-100 MPH? That's unfeasible. However, we are looking to get rid of two Nimitz-class carriers...interested in acquiring them?

How much, and how old are the reactors?

We currently offer I believe 6 carriers.

I'll take one of each of the first three.

$2 billion apiece.

The ZMS Aholl (CVN-74) has a twelve year old reactor, the ZMS Ares (CVN-76) has a seven year old one.

Replace them and I'll pay $9 Billion apiece for the carriers.

We would be willing to sell one of our carriers, but we do not sell to mass murders.

I suggest all sellers take this into consideration.

No Deal. We are appalled by your rounding up and killing of foreign citizens. If you were psychotic enough to drive them from your country, well, deport them - your actions have caused this deal to die. We will not sell to you, and will remain mindful of that..

If you were willing to go post-modern, and pay roughly six trillion dollars, we could sell you a Nightingale class battle carrier. Capable of speeds in excess of Mach 1 submerged, with complete underwater and airborne fighter craft loadouts.

But modern tech, those speeds are impossible. Try around 30 knots.

Mach 1? Jezus.

Cool stuff huh? Noisy, unguidable (mostly), but damn, its fast.

Mach 1? As in the speed of sound? No naval vessel, even a future tech one could move through water that fast.

Edit: A torpedo could, perhaps, but only if it was a Super(duper)Cav torpedo.

Congratulations, you worked it out. Supercavitation on a grand scale. Uses transducers to resonate the water in a similar fashion to cavitation, extending the size of the supercav bubble. Its feasable, with trillions of pound sof research and investment.
