Negative, if that was all that was required a faux carrier deck on land would have been sufficient. Lexington was actually cruising around on her training deployments as did Forrestal after her.
Enterprise may have been still operating in 2012 but it was clearly well behind the current standards, sometimes dangerously so. For example, her radar was never replaced. It was the equivalent of trying to take an original 1959 Chevy Bel Air out on the highway and trying to operate it safely in today’s *much* faster average speeds and *far* better engineered, heavier or both vehicles it could run into.

Trying to operate such an antique at the average speeds and requirements on a daily basis does not end well. You either have to accept the much lower limits and stay well within them, which cripples your potential capabilities and places a burden on those around you, or you run huge risks that don’t pay off. The Enterprise in a modern CBG is the exact same thing.
I see, thank you.
