Synopsis
The US Navy's fleet of aircraft carriers are at the heart of global American military force. With nuclear-powered oceanic range, complements of nearly 5,000 crew, and typically carrying more than 70 combat aircraft, US carriers can remain on station for months, delivering aerial combat strikes on distant targets around the clock. The Haynes Super Carrier Manual will be a unique opportunity to take readers inside one of the very latest generations of aircraft carriers. The US Navy has given author Chris McNab and photographer Patrick Bunce official clearance to spend time at sea on one of its Nimitz or Gerald R. Ford Class carriers. The Haynes Super Carrier Manual will be a must-have fully-illustrated publication for understanding modern US aircraft carriers and carrier aviation, with unrivalled insights into the working life of the crew and the technicalities of life on board.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Author Chris McNab and photographer Patrick Bunce go above and below deck to discover how a supercarrier is built, examining its structure, systems, departments, flight deck and hangar deck. With the full cooperation of the US Navy, they join the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) to discover how a supercarrier operates, looking at flight operations, logistics and life onboard. Commissioned in 1977, this awesome carrier has a complement of more than 6,000 crew and an embarked air wing of anything up to 90 aircraft, together capable of delivering more than 150 combat sorties per day.|Few manmade objects in the modern world represent power projection as emphatically as the supercarriers of the US Navy. Emerging in the aftermath of the Second World War in the Forrestal and Enterprise classes, the supercarrier concept has become most potently embodied in the great Nimitz-class vessels, ten of which have been commissioned since 1975. It is these warships, plus the now emerging supercarriers of the Gerald R. Ford class, that form the lethal heart of the US Navys Carrier Strike Groups (CSGs), previously known as Carrier Battle Groups (CBGs).Author Chris McNab and photographer Patrick Bunce go above and below deck to discover how a supercarrier is built, examining its structure, systems, departments, flight deck and hangar deck.
