I figured it would have a sub in the carrier battle group most CBG have at least one or two fast attack subs.

Question: How many countries have Aircraft Carriers? Does Russia or China have Carriers? Just curious. We seem to have a dominant force in this arena, which is good.

We have the only Super Carriers, Russia, Britain, France all have Carriers that I know of. China and India are buying surplus carriers from Russia.

"Go get 'em, Gipper.

I hope that nutjob in Tehran is looking at the RR and quaking in his Ramadan-stained underwear right about now.

With the Gipper going over "there", how many carriers will there be in the area?

Could this addition have something to do with Iran?

'Modern Marvels' just ran a program about the Reagan tonight on the History Channel, it will likely re air later.

A truly fascinating piece of American ingenuity, Godspeed to all hands aboard.
