Not bad, considering no other nation on the planet can come close to creating such a vessel. Imho, UCAVs will ultimately end up being a major weapons system and the excess electrical power will be used to turn seawater into a fishbowl for sub torpedoes/cruise missiles a long way around this ship...

On a lighter note: A block of (ahem...)bordellos below where the island used to be(say Naples variety...)will enhance sea-duty morale——considerably? ;o]

Can you elaborate on this? Will the carrier be able to fire torpedos?
