Aircraft Carrier  Class – CVA 4 Forrestal (4), Kitty Hawk (3), Enterprise and JFK
UNATED STATES (CVA-58) ,[object Object],[object Object],Megszüntetett építés. A CVA-58 építése 1949. április 19-én megkezdődött a Newport News, VA., Newport News Shipbuilding és Dry Dock Corp. hajóépítő vállalatnál, de 5 nap múlva be is fejeződött, és 23 napon belül pedig le is bontották. A szuper-hordozót atombomba bevetésére alkalmas távolsági repülőgépek szállítására tervezték, de alkalmazása a katonai szolgálatok között vita tárgyát képezte. Az 1,090 láb hosszúságú, 4 katapultos, 33 csomós sebességű szállító lett volna a kor legnagyobb repülőgéphordozója.

Modernized at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard Jan 1983-May 1985 under SLEP (Service Life Extension Program). Reclassified as a Training Carrier and redesignated AVT-59, Feb 1992;  Forrestal  arrived in Philadelphia 14 Sep 1992 to begin a 14-month complex overhaul prior to assuming the duties as training carrier. In early 1993, however, it was decided to decommission  Forrestal  and leave the Navy without a dedicated training carrier. Decommissioned and stricken from the Navy List, 11 Sep 1993. Status:  Stricken, to be disposed of (Maintenance Category X). Berth:  NAVSTA Newport, R.I. Planned disposition:  As of February 2008, she was slated to be sunk as an Artificial Reef, but no specific date had yet been set.
[object Object],[object Object],CVA-59-et James Vincent Forrestalról (1892-1949) nevezték el, akit 1940 augusztusában neveztek ki a haditengerészet első Legfőbb Titkárának, s aki létrehozta a világ legnagyobb flottáját. Ragyogó munkája a  beszerzésben és a termelésben is megmutatkozott, ezért 1944 májusában elnyerte a haditengerészet 48. titkári megbízatását. Forrestalt a nemzetnek tett szolgálata elismeréséül 1947 szeptemberében kinevezték védelmi miniszternek, melyet 1949 márciusi lemondásáig töltött be. Az I. világháború alatt tengerészeti repülőként szolgált az US Navyban.

[object Object],A Saratogai csata 1777 október és szeptember között a Függetlenségi Háború  döntő amerikai győzelme volt, amelynek eredményeként a Kanadából New York lerohanására indított brit hadsereget, 9.000 embert bekerítették. A lázadók győzelme elsöprő volt. A tárgyalások után Burgoyne október 17-én megadta magát. Amikor a hírek az amerikai győzelemről elérték Európát, Franciaország belépett a hazafiak oldala mellett a háborúba.

Fire aboard  Enterprise , 14 January 1969, in Hawaiian waters The massive fire started when a  Zuni  rocket accidentally exploded under the wing of an F-4. Some of the subsequent 18 explosions were 500-lb. bombs cooking of in multiples, leaving 20-foot holes in the armored flight deck. Losses totalled 28 dead, 343 wounded, and 15 aircraft destroyed.  Tűz az  Enterprise hordozón , 1969. January 14. Havaii vizek Hatalmas tűz keletkezett, amikor egy F-4 szárnya alatt lévő Zuni rakéta véletlenül felrobbant és sorozatban robbantotta a fedélzeten lévő gépek 500-lb. bombáját. A 18 robbanás 20 láb hosszúságú rést nyitott a páncélos repülőfedélzeten. 28-an meghaltak, 343-an megsebesültek, és 15 repülőgép megsemmisült.

Armor, Unknown.  Machinery, 280,000 SHP; G.E. Geared Turbines, 4 screws  Speed, 34 Knots, Crew 4154-4580.  Operational and Building Data   Laid down by Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Corp on 9 January 1961. Launched 1 February 1964 and commissioned 23 January 1965. Reclassified as a Multi-purpose Aircraft Carrier (CV-66) on 30 June 1975. Fate:  Decommissioned and stricken on 9 August 1996. Sunk in the Atlantic Ocean, off the Virginia coast, on 14 May 2005, after 25 days of tests consisting of underwater and surface simulated attacks on the ship. These tests were intended to provide valuable data on survivability for the next generation of aircraft carriers. According to the December 4, 2006 issue of  "Navy Times,"  ex- America  was in one piece and sitting on its keel, some 476 miles east of Charleston, SC, and about 400 miles west of Bermuda, and 16,860 feet (5,139 meters) below the surface. This information was obtained by the USS America Carrier Veterans Association on October 30, through a Freedom of Information Act request.
 
 
Atlanti-ócean, 2005. május 14. —  A leszerelt ex-USS  America  (CV-66) repülőgéphordozót a következő generációs hordozó kifejlesztése érdekében, a CVN-21 projekt keretében süllyesztik el. A hagyományos dízelmotorral hajtott repülőgéphordozó, melyet 1996-ban vontak ki az aktív szolgálatból, Michael Sandberg fényképével hagy nyomot az U.S. haditengerészeti-fotótárban. Atlantic Ocean, May 14, 2005  The decommissioned aircraft carrier, ex-USS  America  (CV-66) was "laid to rest" after being sunk at sea.  America  was the target of a series of tests designed to test new defense and damage control systems for the CVN-21 program. The conventionally-powered carrier left active service in 1996.
