I'd like to know more about this trial. There was a lot of discussion about this very thing as to if the Ford's hull was actually strong enough to withstand a near miss. While not the only thing that lead to it's sinking, a near miss severely damaged the hull of HMS Prince of Wales.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - I concur. However, even at $14 billion, probably still the lowest bidder. I still believe in the concept of a lot of smaller combat carriers backed up by a large fleet support carrier.
