USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78)
USS Gerald R. Ford is the lead ship of the Gerald R. Ford class. Keel laying began on 11 August 2005; she launched on 9 November 2013 and entered service on 22 July 2017. She is the largest aircraft carrier in the U.S. Navy and, by many measures, in the world. The Navy envisions up to ten ships of the class through about 2058. The design is the first U.S. carrier to use electromagnetic aircraft launch systems (EMALS) and is intended to succeed the Nimitz class as the core of the fleet.
Self-defense fit includes two RIM-162 ESSM launchers, two RIM-116 RAM launchers, two Phalanx close-in weapon systems, and MK 38 Mod 2 25 mm remote weapon stations. Her air wing spans types such as F-35C, F/A-18E/F, E-2C/D airborne early warning aircraft, and helicopters including the SH-60 family, with MQ-25 unmanned tanking aircraft planned for the future.
