I brought this up on another thread, there were potentially 2 CVNs under construction at Newport News. USS Harry Truman was launched in '96 and commissioned in '98 IRL, so I think we can assume she was finished earlier in the Twilight War. USS Ronald Reagan wasn't laid down until Feb '98 IRL, that may not have happened after TDM? If it were my game, I suspect she may have been barely started, but never finished. Maybe used parts to repair one or more of her damaged sisters?
