Hi,

Not sure what the supercarrier has to do with Sea Control Ship, but that is a rather early design for USS Forrestal, before they switched to the angled deck and fixed superstructure. It clearly owes a great deal to the design of USS United States.

Hi TomS,


but the hypothetical aircraft in that artist drawing is new for me.

Regardless of the aircraft, it really doesn't belong in this thread.
