    Looks good to me. However the length of the Zumwalt is 600 ft. and the Nimitz class is 1092 ft.
    I've never measured the carrier sitting at Pier 12 in FSX or P3D but if the carrier is scaled correctly (maybe) then the 'Zoomie' looks a bit longer than 600 ft.
    Is there any reliable way to measure either/both ships in the sims ?

    Will def add it to my fleet - home port San Diego.

    I was kind of guessing at scale, the original was a bit undersized. Only missed by about 20 ft? Not too bad an eye,eh?
    It's a big ship, about the size of a battleship, though less displacement. Too bad there's no ammunition for the guns!
    This got me to thinking about the arsenal ship designs from the '80's. Now I'm going to have to do one of those to go with the SWATH CVL!
