The Nimitz would get much better range if it's 36 small engines were replaced with 12 or 6 big ones.
Thanks. I'll admit to some confusion over how to get the best power/fuel use ratio in engines. I'll faff around with the engines and repost it.I've decided to drop the requirements for fleet ship speed to be up to 2100km/s with the intention of operating at 2000km/s. Trying to get it to a general speed of 3000 km/s was just too difficult for me to balance with hull size and armour.
As ever, the Nimitz is the backbone of the navy. I'll go a few years in the game and then introduce a new version of the F-44 with size 1 box launchers at some point.

Tried to make a short-range anti-missile laser destroyer. Mix of quad-lasers and regular lasers since having four quads put it at over ten thousand tons.

EDIT; At this point, I've designed some assault ships. Two of which are designed to be carried aboard the third one as an assault carrier. For some reason though, the larger design isn't available to load as part of the carrier's strikegroup.
1000 tons of the Quebec Plains-class' capacity is boat bays, the rest is hangers. I have no idea whether this really does have an effect on what size of vessels they can carry.
