Both above from Wikipedia.

 

The size difference between the two is equivalent to a WWII BB's displacement. The Nimitz-class have, IIRC, four catapults, QE-class have none. USN's carrier carries 90 fixed and rotary-wing A/C, RN's ship will carry 24-36 SVTOL planes and a dozen helos. So RN carrier has up 1/2 the A/C of the USN carrier.

 

Ah, the "Shitty Kitty."

 

You can't take things like that seriously, sailors just do that. Especially if one of the ship's crew is in earshot.

 

It's a trap.
