## About This Content
DCS: Supercarrier is the most detailed and realistic simulation of a Nimitz-
class aircraft carrier ever created. A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is a
nuclear-powered fortress at sea with a crew of over 6,000 sailors and airmen.
The angled flight deck with arrestor wires and four steam-powered catapults
support air wing operations of up to 90 aircraft. The ship also includes a
formidable air defense system that includes the RIM-7 Sea Sparrow Missile and
RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) missiles, and Close-In Weapon System
(CIWS) gun system. A Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is the ultimate power
projection weapon.
10 ships of the class have been produced, of which, we will include five of
the Theodore Roosevelt sub-class:
CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt
CVN-72 Abraham Lincoln
CVN-73 George Washington
CVN-74 John C Stennis
CVN-75 Harry S. Truman
At release, we will provide the Roosevelt, Lincoln, and Washington.
