USS Nimitz (CVN-68) is a supercarrier of the United States Navy, and the lead ship of her class. One of the largest warships in the world, she was laid down, launched, and commissioned as CVAN-68, "aircraft carrier, attack, nuclear powered", but she was later redesignated as CVN-68, "aircraft carrier, multi-mission, nuclear-powered", on 30 June 1975, as part of a fleet-wide realignment that year.

The ship was named for World War II Pacific fleet commander Chester W. Nimitz, USN, (1885–1966), who was the Navy’s third fleet admiral. Nimitz had her homeport at Naval Station Norfolk until 1987, when she was relocated to Naval Station Bremerton in Washington (now part of Naval Base Kitsap). Following her Refueling and Complex Overhaul in 2001, her home port was changed to Naval Air Station North Island in San Diego County, California. The home port of Nimitz was again moved to Naval Station Everett in Washington in 2012.

In January 2015, Nimitz changed home port from Everett back to Naval Base Kitsap.^[4]

With the inactivation of USS Enterprise in 2012 and decommissioning in 2017, Nimitz is now the oldest U.S. aircraft carrier in service.


I'm back with another project i've been working on for a while now, the USS Nimitz. It is the second carrier and the second ship that I attempted to build in Minecraft. I'm really starting to love and enjoy building ships and maybe even military things in general so expect more of this theme.
I tried my best to make the carrier as detailed and as realistic as I could, really analizing every picture and 3d model I had, trying to recreate that in Minecraft. Of course, there will always be things that I maybe missed or did incorrectly, but as i'm learning i'm becomming better, and also expect more updates the the Nimitz. I have left some messeges in-game so make sure to read through those if you want to.
The hangar bay turned out very well, really spent time getting it to look as good and as realistic as I could. I also added plenty of different corridors-interior for you to explore, most if it is fictional due to no pictures actually showing them, but I thought that would be a nice touch, plus making the carrier more complex. One of the hangar sectors also has a working light switch so you can switch off the lights, I will do that for the whole hangar though in the next update. The carrier island itself has a full interior so make sure it explore it. The ship includes various real life aircraft like: McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornets, Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeyes and Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawks.

Just explore, have fun, and I hope you enjoy it. Stay tuned for further updates!

The propellers are also detailed in-game, its just the renders.
