The Untold Secrets of the USS Gerald R. Ford: World’s Most Advanced Warship
The Gerald R. Ford is the most expensive and largest carrier ever constructed and is scheduled to join the United States Navy fleet in late 2022.
According to a 2009 report, the cost of this nuclear giant is almost $14 billion.
To put it into perspective, with that kind of money, you could build three One World Trade Centers and still have enough money to buy a large collection of high-end sports cars!
She is a super carrier with a displacement of approx. long tons. Gerald R. Ford and her sister ships will embark two squadrons of ten to twelve F-35C Joint Strike Fighters, two squadrons of ten to twelve F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, five EA-18G Growler electronic attack jets, four E-2D Hawkeye airborne early-warning and control aircraft, and two C-2 Greyhound carrier onboard delivery (COD) planes. It will also carry eight MH-60S Seahawk helicopters.
It will embark the MQ-25 Stingray refueling and intelligence collection drone, the eventual planned sixth-generation fighter to replace the Super Hornet, and maybe a new long-range strike drone.
The V-22 Osprey tiltrotor is also set to replace the C-2 Greyhound in the COD role.
Its two new-design Bechtel A1B reactors generate energy sufficient enough to power detached houses!
