This will be just as inspiring an occurance. The next carrier, CVN-78 (no name yet), has already started initial stages of construction and will be an all new carrier design called CVN21. See
my page about the CVN21 class on my World Wide Aircraft Carrier site.

"Potential exoctic weaponry" operating off of larger nuke reactor.
I presume anti-missle lasers? Plasma?

Jeff, I'm of course intrigued by the part about "potential exotic defensive systems powered by the increased energy" of the CVN-21. Are we talking chemical lasers?

The next carrier should be named after Rear Admiral Stockdale.
