Carrier Strike Group 10:

Carrier Strike Group 10, abbreviated as CSG-10 or CARSTRKGRU 10, is a U.S. Navy carrier strike group. Carrier strike groups gain and maintain sea control as well as project naval airpower ashore.

The aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN-80) is the strike group's current flagship, and as of 2030, other units assigned to the group include Carrier Air Wing Three embarked on board Enterprise, the Ticonderoga-class cruiser Chosin, and Destroyer Squadron 26.

In creating a realistic carrier strike group around a Gerald R. Ford class carrier, in particular the Enterprise which is not expected to be commissioned until 2027, I sought to update the strike group accordingly. Choosing more modern destroyers and submarines and exchanging the air group's single seat F/A-18E's for F-35C's, While keeping the air wings complement of two seat F/A-18F's for their greater combat capability.

In addition I chose for the first time to build at 1.5:1 scale, affording far more detail but also greatly expanding the work load of the project. In the end I was able to produce five unique vessels with the two Virginia class subs being the only identical ships.

Sadly its texturepack based so in normal Minecraft it looks terrible.
I want to use the destroyers and cruisers from Sketchzi that I alternated a bit to look more to my satisfaction but they are build in normal textures.
Replacing blocks with worldedit doesnt work either because slabs and stairs will be set in their standart positioning. So i guess i have to replace every stair and slab per hand...
But in the texture pack I really have to say it looks amazing and is the best 1:1,5 build I have seen until now.

There are actually some commands in world edit to specify the facing and half of stairs and slabs. It’s still tedious but it’s quite a bit less work than replacing every block.

Yes i found out about that too after i was finished about 70% xD
Can you tell me what the single engine fighters are supposed to be?
Since Super Hornets and Growlers share the same body and general design mostly its none of them.
I would guess they are F-35c type however i didnt know they serve as a squadron on a carrier yet.
Still very amazing build.

I actually have a bit of progress on an island airbase though that’s been on the back burner since the start of this project.
