The USS Gerald R. Ford is the lead ship of her class and the first of a new generation of aircraft carriers designed to replace the Nimitz-class carriers. The USS Gerald R. Ford is 1,092 feet long, 256 feet wide, and has a displacement of approximately 100,000 tons. It is powered by two A1B nuclear reactors, which can generate 700 megawatts of electricity, enough to power a small city. The ship's design features several advanced technologies that were not present on previous aircraft carriers. For example, the USS Gerald R. Ford has an Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System, which uses electromagnetic energy instead of steam to launch aircraft from the ship's catapults.
