Michael Green
4.9/5 (14144 ratings)
Description:This pictorial history of US aircraft carriers illustrates the many classes and types of carriers used by the navy from before WWII to the present day.In 1922 the US Navy commissioned its first small experimental aircraft carrier. This was followed into service by two much larger carriers in 1927 with five more being built-- including three large Yorktown class--prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Then, to take the offensive against the Japanese Navy, the American Congress funded by far the largest carrier-building program in history.Since 1975, when the first of a fleet of ten nuclear-powered Nimitz class carriers was commissioned, The United States Navy's fleet of carriers has optimized its superpower status and worldwide power projection.
