Seek information about uss enterprise during World War II.

The main dimensions of uss enterprise are 342.3m× 40.8m×11.9m, with a standard displacement of 75,700 tons and a full-load displacement of 94,000 tons. Crew 32 15. The power is 8 A2W pressurized water reactors with four shafts and four paddles, with a maximum speed of 35 knots and endurance of 400.

Uss enterprise adopts an open hangar with three lifts 14.6m× 13.4m, each with a load of 77 1 1kg. There are two catapults at the front end of the flight deck and two catapults are installed in the hangar.

Extended data

The most famous aircraft carrier enterprise is its excellent performance of nuclear power plant, in order to make the enterprise reach 30 knots.

Therefore, eight A2W pressurized water reactors produced by Westinghouse are used to drive four 7500 HP (52 MW) steam turbines and 32 four-axis and four-paddle heat exchangers of General Electric Company. Every two propellers are driven in parallel, with a diameter of 6.4 and a weight of 29 tons. The power plant has a total power of 280,000 HP (209 MW) and a speed of 33-35 knots.
