Posted December 3, 2014 Before we begin - This is a new ship and many things about this ship are still classified from public view, all information is obtained from documents released and interviews about this ship. The United States Government is launching a new class of carrier code named "Ford Class Carrier". This new carrier is designed to be more efficient and last longer than the current day Nimitz. At the current time the US Navy is building two of these new ships, and they have 10 planned to phase out of the older Nimitz class. The new carrier class will be fitted with "FEL'S" or Free-electron laser, these lasers can be fired at 1$ per shot and consumes around 10 Mega watts of power from the ships two nuclear reactors. The ship will have (an unsaid amount) of IBM COTS or super computers to help the carrier target and calculate decisions to a certain point. [Will post more when I have a chance] P.S - I realize this information is pulled from Wikipedia, however this is well documented and I'll post more links to other sources very very soon.

Posted December 4, 2014 Author What kind of damage does a laser like that inflict? It can destroy almost any flying object in seconds Edit - What my understanding of this weapon is that it fires an array of electrons in a very tight path at near light speed. These electrons excite the fuel in the aircraft making the fuel unstable and finally explodes Spoiler Project Casper - Glass Tubing Build Ryzen 9 5905x | Gigabyte Aorus Extreme X570 | Strix 3090 GSkill 64gb 4000mhz | EVGA 1600T psu | 3x Samsung 980 Pro NVME 1tb Raid 0 4 x Crucial MX500 2tb raid 0 | Glass Hard Line Tubing - EKWB Blocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
