This model depicts the Royal Navy invincible class aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal in a typical configuration during her 2010 deployment.
Ark Royal differs from Invincible and Illustrious in that her ski jump was designed with a 12 degree ramp from the outset, along with the use of Phalanx instead of Goalkeeper CIWS. In her later years Ark Royal received a different communications fit from either Invincible or Illustrious as can be seen in the design of her third "mast" to the rear of the island. All three carriers are equipped with two GAM-B01 20mm guns from Oerlikon-Contraves and BAE Systems
This model was originally designed in sketchup, to which I have since ported into Blender. As a result although she is a marked improvement on my earlier invincible class models there are still some anomalies with texturing.
Tested in FSX Acceleration only.
