US Navy christens first Ford-class aircraft carrier

[mhm]

The US Navy has christened the first of its new Ford-class of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.

The new super-carrier, which is only 70% complete, is named after late US President Gerald Ford.

It is the first of 10 carriers designed to get more fighter planes into the sky more quickly, but with 1,000 fewer crew members.

The USS Gerald R Ford is reportedly about 22% over budget, at a cost of almost $13bn (£8.1bn, 9.7bn euros).
