Yep...same amazing power availability to the new Ford Class. That’s why things like the EMALS systems will work and why those class vessels may eventually sport Laser CIWS and Rail Gun tachnology.

We’ll see.

Rail gun technology will be a real game changer.

It makes me wonder, why are the British Queen Elizabeth class carriers not going to be nuclear powered? Too save money? In the long term, this will be a mistake.
