[QUOTE]Originally posted by Alshrim Dax: [QB] With more reading, OnToMars is absolutely correct... everywhere the CVN68 is considered the Nimitz Class Carrier. But, i'm still trying to find out what the 'V' is. Seems there is still some confusion. http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Nebula/1424/entrpris/cvn65.html This site - tho' not official, says that it is Carrier Vessel Nuclear. I don't know how right this guy is. But this would seem to stay true that all Millitary sites that I've been to consider the CVN a Nuclear Carrier Vessel .. Without the N - it is just a strait Carrier Vessel powered by diesel .. etc... Now.. I've also been to this site: http://www.ucc.ie/cgi-bin/acronym?CV Which says that the V stands for a Carrier with a Fixed Wing. *Shrugs* And here - http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-query.asp?String=exact&Acronym=CVN&Find=Find - the acronym is defined as Carrier Vessel Nuclear. However -- I got to this site via the Navy Military site.: http://www.cnet.navy.mil/nascweb/amo/amo_links.htm So.. I'm thinkin' CVN=Carrier Vessel Nuclear. But here: http://reserveweb.fitcpac.navy.mil/isrtm/surface.htm They say that the V stands for "Aircraft" *Shakes head... AHHHHHH!! So... lots of different definitions.. and still .. not sure which one I should believe. [/QB][/QUOTE]
