6 CVN-78 and The other carrier strike groups (1/2)
”Wow, what a view,” Lance said as the aircraft carrier was launched from the port alongside with its escort.
The carrier strike group consisted of the CVN-78 aircraft carrier itself accompanied escorts of other ships.
The ship was escorted by not one or two missile cruisers but by four of those Ticonderoga guided missile cruisers. The destroyer also doubled on their required minimal amounts for a carrier strike group, which were six Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers. There were also three supply and oiler ships in the present next to the carrier strike group. The amphibious assault group was also present near the aircraft carrier considered of three Wasp-class ships, four San Antonio class ships, and finally five Harpers Ferry class ships.
Not stopping there, but there were also other carrier strike groups with similar equipment, albeit with different aircraft carriers, which were the CVN-76 and the CVN-75.
'Gee, one of those groups, and we can project power that Beats the entire country military force. What a truly magnificent view,' He mumbled as he flew in a circle around the carrier strike group that was sailing on the open sea.

'I don't know what your definition of an escort is, but thanks.'
Lance made an approach to the aircraft carrier, and the CATC acknowledged him and started to land the plane.
CATC: ”Acknowledged for landing, general you may land.”
Lance made a slow approach to the carrier and landed on the carrier successfully after the rope that was attached to the Hook of the aircraft stopped it.
CATC: ”Nice landing, general.”
Lance aircraft was towed into the hangar inside the aircraft carrier, and he got out of it. He got greeted by the Rear Admiral of the ship, which was the commander of the entire group.
With his flight suit still on his flight suit and that Admiral was in a formal uniform. ”General, nice to meet you. My name is Harold Andersen, I'm the commander of this fleet.”
”Nice to meet you, Admiral, show me the way to the control tower, please,” Lance said to the Admiral.
”Follow me please,” the Admiral lead the way as he climbed the stairs.
”Admiral, how many crews do we have in this carrier?” Lance asked him.
”Currently, about 4500 personnel are on board, and 65% of them are women,” Admiral Andersen said as he climbed a ladder into the landing deck.
”65%? That is an unusual number. On average, only about 15% of the personnel are female,” Lance said to his Admiral.
Lance looked out of the windows of the bridge. The carrier and the ship lights were shining, giving the Illumination of a small town in the afternoon. It's genuinely like a small town indeed considering the number of ships that were there.
