USS United States

I was happily working through doing the research needed to add aircraft carriers to the game when I came across this:

To make a long story short, in 1949 the US Navy laid down the USS United States, the largest and most expensive aircraft carrier ever built. It would be as big as the Nimitz, carry 45 fighters and 12 long range nuclear bombers.

It was canceled by the secretary of defense 5 days after construction began, the components were scrapped and it resulted in the resignation of the Secretary of the Navy.

I could leave it out of the game, since it is pretty much at the end of the tech tree anyway.

... or I could leave it out until I add the nuclear weapons tech.

Right now I am leaning towards tweaking the current carrier stats to make it fit and having it in the next game.

I also think it is something the Japanese and Germans would probably have built if they had had the chance.
