Carriers
1. Elliot Armstrong-Class Strike Carrier (CVSNT2-01)
Joint Anagonian/Marquesan-designed and Manufactured Model
Confederate Navy Overview
The Elliot Armstrong-class Strike Carrier is an upgrade over the Anagonia-class Strike Carrier through a joint initiative with the Meritocratic Union of Marquesa and the Confederate States of Anagonia. Its name is in honor of Chief General Elliot Armstrong, whom died in a crash on September 3rd, 105 AUR. As an upgraded class, it is considered to be within the same Supercarrier family as the Anagonia-class, and not a separate design. This resulted in the official designation of CVSN-01T2, which abbreviates Nuclear Strike Carrier Tranche II - 01, wherein Tranche signifies the additional portion or upgrade. It is very clear that the two Strike Carriers are of different hull designs. The Anagonia-class, as an example, takes its hull inspiration from the United States Navy Forrestal-class Supercarrier design. On the other hand, the Elliot Armstrong-class takes its hull design inspiration from the United States Navy Kitty Hawk-class Supercarrier. Despite this technicality, the Confederate States Navy is insistent that the Elliot Armstrong-class is an upgrade rather than a separate hull family of Strike Carriers.
The objective of the Elliot Armstrong-class is to supplement and support the Anagonia-class Strike Carriers in joint operations, as well as providing a show of force and strong presence in international engagements and situations. The primary mission of the class is to operate internationally and demonstrate the Confederate Navy's commitment to peacekeeping and trade protection. With bolstered technological and munition upgrades, as well as a redesigned hull to compliment the attachment of F-21B Drekafighters, it is expected to make a satisfying presence on the high seas.
The first of the class, the CSS Elliot Armstrong, was originally to be named the CSS Confederate States. The incident following the deaths of Chief General's Elliot Armstrong and Titus Bond prompted a change of name in honor of the military and political leaders.

2. Anagonia-Class Strike Carrier (SCV-01/CVSN-01)
Anagonian-designed and Manufactured Model
Confederate Navy Overview:
The Anagonia-Class Strike Carrier was the crowning achievement of the United Republic Navy. Completely designed and constructed surrounding the Forrestal-class of carriers, the Anagonia-Class was intended to represent the will and power of the United Republic Navy throughout the world. Having fought in several World Wars and international conflicts, it is amazing that not a single one of the Strike Carriers was to be lost; the exception being USS Independence during the Greatest World War, suffering a massive bow missile impact that nearly sank her and resulted in her early decommissioning into a museum ship. Several other carriers within the Anagonia-class were to be almost as severely damaged, but none after the Independence were to have such an extensive loss of structural integrity and life - and still float.
Following the fall of the United Republic, the Confederate States Navy operated and maintained all six operating Strike Carriers until it was realized that the funds necessary to maintain such a fleet were impossible to acquire at the time. The SCV-03 and SCV-04 were sold to the Imperial Empire of Drekamythia and the Soviet Union of Nodea Rudav respectively, gaining the necessary funds to properly decommission SCV-01 and SCV-02 into museum ships and still have a balance acceptable enough to restore and refit SCV-06 and SCV-07. With their growing age, the Confederate States Navy plans to retire SCV-06 CSS Olympia and SCV-07 CSS Freedom after finishing construction of SCV-08, SCV-09, and SCV-10.
UPDATE #1
On October of 104 AUR, all three Strike Carriers under construction were completed and sea trials began the following month. On June 27th, 105 AUR, sea trials were completed and Strike Carriers SCV-08 CSS Poseidon, SCV-09 CSS Courageous and SCV-10 CSS Defiance entered active duty. The Confederate Navy is open about the possibility of constructing more Anagonia-class Strike Carriers, however it remains committed to finding a better and more adequate solution to its large carrier needs. As a result the Navy has, in recent years, favored the Boxer-class Light Carrier for its simplicity, cost-efficiency, and capability. The Confederate Navy intends to utilize a large fleet of Light Carriers to extend its reach across the globe while maintaining a smaller fleet of larger carriers for missions requiring a more extensive capability and military presence.
UPDATE #2
In July of 105 AUR, the Chief Admiral of the Confederate Navy has reconsidered the advantages of the Strike Carrier. As such, the Navy has opened the door for further construction of additional Strike Carriers.

Light Carriers
1. Forest Holloway-Class Fleet Escort Carrier (CVE-719)
Joint Anagonian/Marquesan-designed and Manufactured Model
Image by EmperorMyric, Assets added in by Anagonia, Specifications by Marquesan, Commissioned by Anagonia
Description:
The Forest Holloway class was conceived as a light, conventionally-powered aircraft carrier designed to accompany Confederate Navy battle groups on long patrols through the deep oceans of Gholgoth. The CVE-719 project was conceived and designed at the Papeete Steelworks yard at Savali'i, Coevity Prefecture, Marquesan Union. The first ship was built on-site, with subsequent examples built domestically in Anagonia. The nearly 54,000-ton carrier at full load carries sufficient fuel to cruise 13,000 nautical miles on its own fuel at 16.5 knots, carrying 880 tons of aviation fuel for flight operations. CVE-719's are powered by four 45-megawatt naval gas turbines, an identical powerplant to the Compassion-class hospital ship, driving 9-blade screws on shafts driven by a pair of permanent magnet induction motors. Dual-motor shafts allow tremendous power to be transmitted through robust shafts and massive screws which produce thrust with minimum cavitation and prop noise. The class can make 33.8 knots at flank speed, with the ability to run at that speed for more than nine days, during which time the ship will have crossed more than 7,400 nautical miles. (2.6x the distance between Boston, Mass and Lisbon, Portugal) The ship is constructed from HY-100 steel, with a full-length 5-inch torpedo-and-submarine belt extending to the flight deck on both sides of the ship, integrated into the ship's structure, along with a 3.8" thick flight deck and internal bulkheads which tie the armor shell together. The result of this distributed passive protection is that Forest Holloway class carriers are much less vulnerable to smaller anti-shipping missiles and naval gunfire, with single hits far less likely to disable the ship. Additional layers of protection come in the form of Anagonian-designed, 8-barrel 30mm CIWS rotary guns, and a domestically-engineeered 36-cell VLS, equipped with the latest R3 variants of the Marquesan-built Misericorde and Shashka missiles, equipped with thermal or radar homing seeker heads. The flight deck is long and thin, angled to starboard, with a pair of electromagnetic (EMALS) catapults facing forward, rated for 45-ton launch weights. Four arrestor wires assist heavy naval aircraft in making short landings on the roughly 800-foot carrier deck. A pair of starboard-side elevators allow the movement of aircraft from the hangar deck to the flight deck, while a pair of munitions lifts forward of the starboard-side superstructure allow rearmament of aircraft staged on the flight deck quickly. The full-length hangar deck below allows for the carriage of modern fighter, helicopter, and AEW aircraft on a comparatively small, conventionally-powered but dedicated carrier hull. Just over a thousand sailors, 270 officers and 300 flight crew call the ship home, with supplies aboard for 90 days of continuous operations. A cutting-edge sensor-integrated mast was designed for the Forest Holloway class, built around the Testudo Mk. IV CIC, which operates in sensor fusion, digitally combining the inputs of multiple sensors and sources into cohesive images and maps on large, interactive touchscreens. Significantly smaller and lighter than older Kitty Hawk-class carriers, the Forest Holloway class can be produced in large numbers quickly, and is in general serial production in the Confederate States of Anagonia.

2. Boxer-Class Light Carrier (CVL)
Purchased Model
Overview(Original):
When in a situation where a Fleet Carrier is considered overkill, but requires airpower, there’s only one thing that can scratch that itch, a Light Aircraft Carrier. To fulfill this need, Hypersphere Technologies has developed the Boxer-Class CVL. Having been in service for several years now in the Belkan Kaiserliche Marine, the Boxer is a capable warship with enough firepower to tackle a small fleet on its own.
The air wing for the Boxer can vary, but due to the size of the elevators, the planes are limited in size to smaller aircraft such as the Harrier & Hornet with the E-2 as the largest it’ll hold. While for regular carriers this would be a fatal flaw, the Boxer is a light carrier and Harriers & Hornet-size aircraft are just what was envisioned being operated from her decks. But the air wing isn’t the only bit of offensive hardware at the Boxer’s disposal. Mounted just behind the Island is a 36 cell Mk. 41 Strike-length VLS, capable of holding any missiles that’ll fit in the VLS system. The standard payload with in the Belkan Kaiserliche Marine is 8 Fasthawks, 8 VLS Harpoons, & 36 ESSM for defense. Supporting the ESSMs is a Phalanx Bk. II mount on top of the bridge and a SeaRAM just past the Mk. 41 VLS.
Among the many sensors on board the Boxer is the prominent radar mast. Based on the Thales APAR X-Band radar, the Hoffnung Technologies designed Camelot Radar Mast is an improvement to the APAR as its effective range has been increased from 150 km to 225 km. Mounted on top of the Camelot Mast is another product from Hoffnung, the LIGHT-M VLR S-Band Radar meant to detect any incoming aircraft long before it reached the Carrier, up to 400km out.
Confederate Navy Overview:
Originally intended to fill a slated "Light Carrier" role, the Boxer-class Light Carrier was given a role reassignment with the introduction of the newly-minted Lexington-class Battlecarriers and the decommissioning and/or selling of most of the Anagonia-Class Strike Carriers. The true value of the Boxer-class Light Carrier is its amazing capability to be easily rearmed and refitting for mission-critical specifications, making it essentially a fast-response Light Carrier for hotzones across the globe. Various flight configurations exist within the Confederate Navy to fill the necessary roles, up to and including maritime patrol and coastal protection. Versatile and well worth the cost, the Confederate Navy intends to maintain a large fleet of Boxer-Class Light Carriers to ensure coverage across its fleet.
A total of six Boxer-class Light Carriers were purchased, having served with distinction during the Greatest World War. Several dozen more Boxer-class Light Carriers have been constructed since the original purchased Boxer-class Light Carriers were decommissioned, with an additional Boxer-class under construction.
UPDATE
As of July 10th, 105 AUR, the Confederate States Navy has taken a more conservative approach to its Boxer-class Light Carrier Fleet. Several of the older ships are expected to be retired soon with little plans to construct more unless necessary. The Navy has since redirected its focus to constructing larger strike carriers to provide adequate fleet coverage.

1. Lexington-Class Battleship Carrier (BBCVGN-761)
Purchased Custom-Designed Model
Redrawn Image by EmperorMyric, Top-down by Drakonia, Commissioned by Anagonia
Overview(Original)
During Marine landings on foreign soil, the Armed Forces found that they lacked a platform that could both deliver devastating damage and carry forward a small expeditionary force capable of dealing with Police Actions. So the Confederacy commissioned the Imperial Royal Shipyards to design and construct a platform capable of delivering the desired results. After a lengthy process, the Lexington-Class Battleship Carrier was soon completed.
Designed and created by Dewhurst-Narculis engineers, it was modified to have the rear of ship be a carrier VTOL deck for launching VTOL fighter craft and helicopters. The middle and fore are totally reminiscent of the Iowa-class Battleship which has served the Confederate Marines well during their times. Missile launchers complete the picture making the Lexington-Class an extremely capable fighting machine.
The design of the Lexington-class is made to assist in shipyards through the tedious and often long-duration process of refitting older model vessels. With an ample supply of Iowa-class Battleships, the majority of the Lexington-classes within the fleet are completely updated and refitted Iowa-class superstructures. Only a few Lexington-Class Battleship Carriers are intended to be constructed from the ground up, completely new.
The Lexington-Class Battleship Carriers designation is BBCVGN; Battleship Carrier Guided missile Nuclear ship Six-Hundred and Seventy-One final.

The Lexington-Class Battleship Carriers, more commonly referred to as "Battlecarriers", were one of the few designs of ships specifically catered to the growing needs of the Confederate Navy. Designed with the intention to replace the LHD-1 Wasp Class Amphibious Assault Ships and provide ground force operational support for the Confederate States Marine Corps, the Lexington-class is unique in that most ships in the class are recycled from the older hulls of Iowa-class Battleships and scrap-metal from LHD-1 Wasp class assault ships. This process of recycling older ship metals was ended with the construction of BBCVGN-771 CSS Mercury, and onward, as the older ship stock required for the recycling had been adequately diminished.
