USS Theodore Roosevelt CVN-71 2006 - Trumpeter 05754

USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) is a modern American nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The keel of this unit was laid in 1981, the launching took place in March 1984, and the commissioning of the US Navy took place in 1986. The overall length of the ship is 332.8 meters, the width overall is 76.8 meters, and the total displacement is about 92,000 tons. The maximum speed does not exceed 32-33 knots. The onboard armament currently consists of: two Sea Sparrow missile launchers, two RIM-116 launchers and three 20 mm Vulcan Phalanx CIWS sets. The aircraft carrier can embark up to 90 aircraft of types such as, for example: F / A-18 Super Hornet, EA-18 Growler, E-2A Hawkeye or Sikorsky MH / SH-60. USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) is one of the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers. Ships of this type - until the introduction of the Gerald Ford-class units - were the largest ships in history. They were also the first class of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in the history of the United States Navy. From the very beginning, they were designed as the backbone of the US Navy's strike force and were to work closely with other shielding ships, such as destroyers, frigates and submarines. They are almost a symbol of the US Navy's dominance in the seas and in world ratings. One of the carriers of this class is USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71), built at Newport News Shipbuilding in Newport News, Virginia. It is worth adding that, compared to previous units of its class, it has better protection of the vital parts of the ship and was built - as the first of the Nimitz class - in modular technology. Before being accepted for service, the unit underwent very difficult and demanding sea trials, including the detonation of an explosive near the ship. USS T. Roosevelt took an active and significant part in the First Gulf War in 1990-1991. After the end of the conflict, the ship remained in the area and its aircraft on board monitored the Iraqi side's compliance with the ban on overflights of designated zones. In the period 1992-1995, the unit periodically served in the Mediterranean Sea and its aircraft participated in Operations Deny Flight and Deliberate Force. The individual is currently in active service. We do not ship to the Canary Islands

She took part in the Rabaul and Tarawa raids and attacks before being bombed and damaged by Japanese aircraft, then repaired in San Francisco from January to July 1944. After repairs, she was used to attack various targets on Luzon and Okinawa. She was part of the battalion that sank the remnants of the Japanese fleet in the Battle of Leyte Gulf and several other Japanese ships in Surigao Strait. She finished her wartime service off the coast of Japan supporting the occupation forces, then was assigned to return soldiers to the United States as part of Operation Magic Carpet.
