"This is Kanito Ruthenton live on the deck of the new Colossus Class Carrier, the SI Arajj. This is one of the 14 carriers taking part in the world tour that the Navy has brought together. 5 other carriers are also Colossus Class, the other 8 being Nimitz class. Now, I have to say this is an amazing sight. I am standing on the deck of the Arajj at this moment, and we are towering over the other ships in this. Let me tell you a bit about these carriers. They are nearly twice the size of the Nimitz class carriers, and each of them are carrying hundreds of planes, ranging from escort fighters to heavy bombers."

14 Carrier battle groups sailed from the largest harbor in Ishraelma, Arajj, which the newest of the Colossus Carriers was named after. Skyscrapers and cranes towered above the groups, sillouhetted by the low sun. A roar of cheers still flowed out from the harbor, confetti and ballons in flight.

The sun was now setting over the huge convoy, dozens of ships littering the seas. Over head, interceptors flew guard paths over the gargantuan fleet that was powered by a myriad of nuclear reactors. From submarines to battleships to carriers, everyform of naval power was present with Ishraelma's latest weaponry, which included the new Saerajj ICBMs and Cruise Missiles, and the Onyx Anti-Aircraft and Anti-missile gatling guns. This was surely a force to be reckoned with, and one which would awe the world.

"For anyone wondering, this is NOT a threatening show of force, but a peaceful 'parade' to show the world that accomplishments the USSI has made. This is Kanito Ruthenton signing out."

OOC: Ishraelma's largest branch of the military is the navy.
