I just skimmed the site, looks good. Offhand do you know of any US plans to build more carriers, specifically in the Pacific? What are the locations of the current carriers.

We are building the George HW Walker and the first CVN-21 right now. There is a lot of talk about forward deploying another carrier into the Western Pacific.

Our carriers are currently based in San Diego , CA(4), Everett, WA (2), Norfolk, VA (5), and in Japan (1).

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?
