amphibious assault ship USS Wasp (LHD-1), the
American aircraft carrier USS Forrestal (CV-59), and
the British aircraft carrier HMS Invincible (R-05).

Artist's concept of CVN-78, a new class of aircraft
carriers. A new nuclear propulsion plant will power
the next class of aircraft carriers. The new plant
will require fewer operators thereby lowering
life-cycle costs, and will provide increased
electrical power that will be available for the
demands of developing technology. Smart sensors will
assist in further reducing Navy watch standing
requirements and in automating damage control
functions such as detecting fire and flooding
situations. Flight deck redesign and a transition to
an advanced aircraft recovery system (AARS) will
reduce crew workload, enhance safety and reduce the
costs of operating and maintaining a carrier
throughout its planned 50-year life cycle. On 29 May
2011, the Department of Defense announced that
CVN-79 would be named for John F. Kennedy.
