Commissioned in 2014, USS America redefines maritime air power. The 45,000-ton ship carries F-35B fighters, expands hangar space, and stores more aviation fuel than earlier classes. It moves 1,700 Marines with gear and swaps a traditional well deck for greater flight capacity, mirroring today’s need for rapid air deployment. Advanced surgical suites and a 24-bed hospital enable swift disaster relief, while state-of-the-art command systems let the ship spearhead strike groups across wide oceans.
