I'll habe to research exactly what the "Cape of Good Hope headlands" means. I took it to mean any area, either side of the Cape...down that way.
Thanks for the compliment on the site.

I'd like to see faster production as well...but these things, short of a major war, are planned out for 10-15 years in advance.
The carrier shipbuilding schedule has them coning in every five years like clock work, replacing the older carriers one for one, maintiang a force of twelve

Um, don't we need the Panama Canal to get those ships into the Pacific? Didn't Jimmy Carter give it away to Panama, who is letting the Chinese camp there? Do you see a pattern with an ulterior motive here?

Jeff -
Excellent site! Just "wasted" 45 minutes perusing it and linked sites & info. Bookmarked!
To: US_MilitaryRules
A quick net search turned this up.....
Perhaps the first ship of the next class of carriers will be the USS Bill Clinton. It will boast the ability to steer a course straight down the middle, but will have a tendency to veer to the left or toward large sums of money. It will be fueled by an unending supply of testosterone, which perpetually replenishes itself. Its presence will always be marked by chaos and destruction, but there will never be enough evidence to prove that it was really there. Maintenance of this class will be a nightmare as items will constantly disappear from the aircraft and wardroom furniture will mysteriously vanish.
Its sister ship, the USS Hillary Rodham, will easily steer to the left or to the right, if you know what I mean. Keeping decklogs on this ship will be difficult, as there will be no knowledge of having been anywhere or having done anything. This ship will also run on testosterone but will require a much higher octane. This ship will be characterized by impulses to suddenly change homeports.

There are 4 classes. The Nimitz class includes 9 carriers and the other classes 1 each for a total of 12 carriers.
To: Jeff Head
Nice site Jeff. The only suggesting I can think of now is you may want to identify their home port.
I remember visiting Brest France in the early to mid 90's. I was working with a French engineering firm on a joint US- French naval weapons program when my French companion gave me a brief tour of this port city and I remember seeing the Gen. Charles De Gualle in port.
As an interesting aside, my French companion told me that Brest was destroyed by allied bombing in WWII. According to him it was a port for German subs during the Vichey reign. Hence the bombing.
