Are you sure the pictures are of that ship? I don't think slanted (to the side) decks were built until the atomic powered carriers.

I just mechanically followed the links on that site.

I thought some of the images seemed odd, but as I have no expertise in the area, I can't make a judgement.

Actually, the British invented the design, and then their lefty government canned the carrier fleet. Now all they have are those little jump jet carriers.

USS Enterprise (CVN-65) was the first nuclear powered carrier. Prior to Enterprise, the Forrestal (CV-59), Saratoga (CV-60), Ranger (CV-61), Independence (CV-62), Kitty Hawk (CV-63) and Constellation (CV-64) were all commissioned as slanted deck supercarriers.
