WNS Kitty Hawk (NCB-12): Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 19:55, 26 April 2020

WNS Kitty Hawk (NCB-12) is the second Cassin Young-class aircraft carrier operated by theWiltshire Navy. She was laid down in April 3020 with the goal of leading a second full Carrier Strike Group to operate oversees. As apart of this task Kitty Hawk has been equipped with two full operating bridges and the ability to use an entire regiment of the Wiltshire Army, deployable using the new Achilles Tempest UH-111 helicopter. Kitty Hawk will also be the flagship of the DUOD naval alliance in the North Sea, with plans for her to house an entire Newport Airforce airwing onboard, alongside the Wiltshirian airwings.

As the second Cassin Young-class supercarriers, Kitty Hawk will be accompanied by an entire CSG (Carrier Strike Group), which will be comprised of numerous Prince-class destroyers, and numerous of the planned Demeter-class frigate. Despite not being Wiltshire's flagship, Kitty Hawk will be Wiltshire's primary form of power projection across the Doggerland.

Following her launch on April 25, she was deployed to patrol the seas surrounding Bonitana, as their controversial election came to an end with the threats of invasion from the New Corporate Republic.

Construction

Kitty Hawk was the fastest ever constructed aircraft carrier, thanks to the ingenuity of the Eddington Naval Shipyards. In a weeks time, she was put together (despite much of the hull taking a month to construct) she was fully assembled starting on April 19 in the drydock at Eddington Base directly following the launch of Cassin Young, Kitty Hawk's sister ship.

Her construction was, for the most part, flawless and without interruption.
