USS Shadow (CV-80)

The USS Shadow was the third Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier of the United States Navy. Hull number is CV-80. She was built around 2015 and was delivered to the United States Navy 2nd Fleet in 2017. The carrier served in many operations starting with the Middle East Campaign.

The USS Shadow was outfitted with few defense and offense weapon systems. Only had two SM-2 launchers and two CIWS. Of course, it still had its primary role: Be a carrier, provide jets and troops.

Speaking of troops, the ship consisted of 1,500 US Marines and 200 special operators. Pilots, 100.

The ship was placed under the command of Admiral Eric Johnston and General Duong, who was the ship's XO.

The 231st Marine Corp battalion was also housed in the Shadow. Of course, the battalion was in other ships and bases in Iraq. For years, the Shadow had become one of the most valued ships of the USN.

During the Long War, the ship was also sent with a group of destroyers to the Ohotsk Sea, located East of Russia.

The ship, after the war, was later a museum, tourists come in every day to look at the ship's interior, exterior, and mannequins of the brave men and women who served onboard the ship.

But soon, the USS Shadow became the last air-craft carrier in the whole United States Navy when the world was nuked several times.

In the 'other time', the USS Shadow is not the last aircraft carrier in the United States Navy. She was used less often as the years passed. The Shadow, in 2070, was decommissioned after serving for 53 years. It stayed at Norfolk, Virginia, its original homeport. A year and a half later, the warship was scuttled miles of the Virginia Coast since the Admirals thought it was time to sink it.
