Its a fantastic idea to have a nuclear Nimitz carrier to show off your product.

A view of aircraft carrier, the USS Carl Vinson, at Guanabara Bay, with Sugarloaf Mountain in the background, in Rio de Janeiro February 26, 2010. The aircraft carrier arrived in Brazil on Friday, just a few weeks after taking part in Operation Unified Response, the international humanitarian aid mission in Haiti. Carl Vinson stopped in Rio de Janeiro while on its way to dock in San Diego, California.

Yes Senor, the Hornet is very nice. By the way, how many Embraer KC-390s is the USAF interested in buying?

SONOBUOY PING!
Click on pic for past Navair pings.
Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.

For Brazil's geography, all they need is the Grippen NG. Small, easy to maintain, and affordable to fly.
The F/A-18E/F is way too much fighter for that neck of the woods, and the Rafale means you have to deal with France for maintenance spares, where they've stuck it to Mirage operators in the past.
