Uss gerald ford

I think your Arresting gear wires are a tad off. There are only 3 used on the Ford class. The furthest sheaves are used for the Barricade. Also, your one wire is too far aft! The LSO Platform IRL is at Flight Deck level. Just an observation!

Like WOW

If I didn't know any better I would think that you took photos of it at sea instead of it being a model. Can't wait. :applause:
 
Los Angeles class

Recommend that you lower it in the water. Even when surfaced, they were not this high out of the water. Google for photos and you'll see what I am recommending. Really looking forward this your work,

Repaint Help

I am going to try and help with repainting the static airwing aircraft for this project. Just PM'd Walter. Currently there are NO F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighters actively deployed in any of the Navy's CVWs but Navy pilots are currently training at Eglin AFB and NAS Lemoore on the West Coast for possible transition beginning in February 2019 for integration beginning in 2020. All current airwings contain F/A 18's as front line fighter aircraft. Gerald Ford has done 400 hours + testing with the Super Hornets from CVW 3 and CVW 8 according to Navy sources.
