Nimitz is the second nuclear-powered aircraft carrier built in the United States and the first Nimitz class aircraft carrier in the world. The ship number is CVN68. The ship was built by Newport News Shipbuilding Company of the United States. Commencement in June 1968, launching in May 1972, service in May 1975. It was first incorporated into the Atlantic fleet, and its home port is Norfolk port on the east coast. 1June 1983 to1September 1984, some equipment was added and updated. 1987 transfer from Atlantic fleet to Pacific fleet. The home port is Bremerton. Its position in the Atlantic fleet was replaced by the aircraft carrier Roosevelt, which entered service in September 1986. 1998 After overhaul, it was transferred to San Diego.
The ship is a closed aircraft deck; The hull below the hangar deck is an integral watertight structure, consisting of an inner shell and an outer shell. In addition to the hull plate meeting its strength and defense requirements, the inner hull is composed of protective armor plates to protect important parts such as power cabin, oil cabin and ammunition cabin. The flight deck, pod deck and hangar deck are all protected by armored steel plates with a thickness of about 50 mm, and there are four vertical bulkhead lightning protection structures on both sides below the waterline, which are vertically divided into eight layers. Every 12- 13m along the captain, set 1 watertight transverse bulkheads and 23 watertight transverse bulkheads. Another 10 fire zone is set. The shipyard is divided into more than 2000 watertight compartments by the vertical and horizontal sections next door, which ensures the sinking resistance of the ship. There are 9 floors above the hangar deck, 4 floors below the flight deck and 5 floors above the flight deck. Between the hangar and the flight deck is the pod deck, which is equipped with the office area of the aviation wing and the combat command module. The hangar is 208.48m long, accounting for about two-thirds of the captain's length and 32.92m wide, accounting for about three-quarters of the ship's width. The height of the hangar is 8.07m, accounting for the height of the third deck. The hangar is slightly on the starboard side, and the rest of the port side is equipped with compartments, control rooms and passages. And there are six aircraft gas stations to refuel the aircraft in the hangar.
Aircraft maintenance workshops are arranged around the hangar. In front of the hangar are soldiers' living quarters and anchor decks. The rear of the hangar is separated from the hangar by a fireproof and sound-proof partition. Island is the installation base of aircraft carrier electronic equipment antenna. The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is much smaller than the conventional power carrier, and it has no chimney and occupies a small deck area, which is beneficial for carrier aircraft to work on the flight deck. The bridge of air traffic control ship is located at the top of the island, with the navigation bridge below and the formation commander bridge below. The island is also equipped with various electronic equipment cabins and support cabins for flight deck operation equipment. The cost of the ship is $654.38+88 million (654.38+0.968).
