Clinton og Bush skal lægge navn til amerikanske giganter

US Navy´s to sidste hangarskibe i Gerald R. Ford-klassen vil blive opkaldt efter landets 42. og 43. præsidenter, oplyser den afgående flådeminister, Carlos Del Toro.

De to hangarskibe vil blive navngivet henholdsvis ed USS William J. Clinton (CVN 82) og USS George W. Bush (CVN 83).

Ministeren begrunder æren med, at begge præsidenter “ledte USA gennem nogle af de mest udfordrende momenter i USA´s historie”.

"Deres arv vil leve videre gennem disse hangarskibe, som fungerer som imponerende platforme dedikeret til at sikre vores nationale sikkerhed og styrke vores vilje til at beskytte denne nation mod enhver, der truer vores friheder og livsstil," udtalte han.

De to hangarskibe bliver de sidste i den amerikanske flådes program om at bygge seks skibe i Gerald R. Ford-klassen.

Det første skib i klassen, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), blev en del af flåden i 2017. USS John F. Kennedy (CVN 79) er planlagt til levering senere i år, efterfulgt af Enterprise (CVN 80) og Doris Miller (CVN 81).

Der går således endnu mange år inden Clinton og Bush skibene bliver bygget.
