Well sorry but I cant fit a nuclear reactor on it so your stuck with a diesel engine.

OOC:
You don't need a nuke power source for 30...

The Visby Corvette (http://foxxaero.homestead.com/indrad_023.html) is bigger (almost 3 times more) and faster.

Well, I have been looking for a nice carrier design

up to 35kts

4 hull to deck elevators

max of 100 craft in hull, 50 on deck

one and one half run way on deck (half runway will count as the gates, and used for short take off craft (Ex. Harrier/Helicopters)

AA; SAM; Torpedo; Anti-Missle combonation onm all four sides (except AA and SAM in front and back, AA and SAM on sides, Torpedo liked on all four sides except back, which is optionable)

These are the figures I really care about the most, include extra information also if you have a carrier simular to this.

A Carrier can go 30knots with a nuclear reactor but a carrier is around 4 times the size and hundreds of times the weight. Therefore a deisel engine can make a mere 250tonne boat go at 35+knots
