    Thank you, D-mitch for your Intrepid Museum photos. That preserved hulk(?) looks very well utilised. Shame Portsmouth in England won't be getting anything like that this next fifty years.

    You're welcome my friend! I think only United States have the luxury to keep so many and big warships (battleships, aircraft carriers) in such perfect conditions. HMS Victory costs a lot of money already to UK to keep it like good, you can imagine how much money will cost for an Invicible class aircraft carrier..

    Was this an anti-aircraft missile system before the classic RIM-7 launcher?
