From US Navy website, more than ya probably wanted to know about ship naming procedures:

Ammunition ship names are names of volcanoes or words denoting fire and explosives (Suribachi, Pyro).

Don't you pay attention? The world's largest Air Craft Carrier is already named after the gipper. I disagreed with alot of his policies but here's to naming huge war ships after politicians from Southern California. Can the USS Nixon be far behind?

Wow, those would be British ships with Swedish names.

Well, if my world domination plans ever come to fruition, my flagship of doom will be called the Victoria.

An ex-girlfriend's name?

Actually, it's one of several of the "world's largest," as the Nimitz-class are all the same size.

And it's not the largest ever built, the Japanese hold that record.

[Dinner]

The Japanese hold the largest Battleship not Air Carft Carrier. The Carriers are bigger in any event.

Nope, they hold both:

Boris, the Ronald Reagan is over 100,000 tons. It's the largest Carrier in the World. I don't believe the Shinano ever reached that.

(especially as the Yamato battleships, which is what it was based off of, weighed in at "only" 80,000 tons)

Of course.

ACK!

I said Capital ships, not pissant top-heavy destroyers.



PHHPPT!

Nope, haven't seen it.

Not talking tonnage, but dimensions. No, it can't beat tonnage, as it came in just over 70,000.

[Lonestar]

Tonnage is how most people qualify "biggest", skippy.

[Boris Godunov]

Depends who you ask. Tonnage isn't a good measure of size, though, and "largest" indicates dimensions, to most people.

[Boris Godunov]

But even that may be wrong, by the look of it. Several sites give credit to the Shinano for being the largest ever, but the dimensions clearly give the Nimitz-class the edge regardless. Hmmmph, you can really support any position on the web.
