All seven nuclear-powered Nimitz class carriers have been built by Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia. The Nimitz air wing consists of 74-86 aircraft. The flight deck is equipped with four lifts, four steam-driven catapults and four arrester wires. The carrier is capable of launching one aircraft every twenty seconds. The nuclear-powered carrier has two General Electric pressurized water reactors driving four turbines of 260,000hp (194MW) and four shafts. There are four emergency diesels of 10,720hp (8MW).
