You may be missing my point, which is that the "ship impact" of gas turbine propulsion on a hull the size of CVA.01 may be less than it was on Invincible because its machinery produced up to one-and-a-half times more power in a hull with nearly three times more volume. Or put another way the uptakes would require one-and-a-half times more volume but they were in a hull that had nearly three times more volume.


Also, some reference books say the GTs on Invincible produced 112,000shp and most reference books say the steam turbines in the Real-CVA.01 were to produce 135,000shp which is 20% more. In which case ALT-CVA.01's uptakes would require one-point-two times more volume than Invincible's in a hull that had nearly three times more volume.


However, if you allowed for that, fair enough.
