The Americans would earn a lot of money if they would sell these decommissioned aircraft carriers (such as America, Forrestal etc.) to a foreign Navy such as Brazilian or Indian.. Maybe the Kitty Hawk or the Constellation (or both of them) which are the newest from the decommissioned aircraft carriers should be kept as a reserve but for the others could be a good idea to sold. Except of course if they want more museums!
