USS ENTERPRISE
The world's most famous aircraft carrier

USS Enterprise (CVN-65) was the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and the eighth United States naval vessel to bear the name.  Like her predecessor of World War II fame, she is nicknamed "Big E". At 1,123 ft, she is the world's longest naval vessel ever built. Enterprise had a crew of some 4,600 service members.

The only ship of her class, Enterprise was, at the time of inactivation, the third-oldest commissioned vessel in the United States Navy after the wooden-hulled USS Constitution and USS Pueblo. She was originally scheduled for decommissioning in 2014 or 2015, depending on the life of her reactors and completion of her replacement, USS Gerald R. Ford, but the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 slated the ship's retirement for 2013, when she would have served for 51 consecutive years, longer than any other U.S. aircraft carrier.





Like all of our warship models, this USS Enterprise aircraft carrier model has the following qualities:

- Plank-on-frame, hollow hull construction, weighing less than 10 lbs.  (A solid hull of this model would be over 30 lbs.)
- Hollow superstructure comprised of many individual thin pieces of wood glued together, not few blocks stacking on top one another.
- Windows are cutouts (not black decals), thanks to the hollow structures.
- Light rust appearance to give the ship the battle look.
- >95% of parts are wood and metal
.

38" L x 10.5 W x 9 H  (five of each type of aircraft included)
 

Discontinued.  Very limited quantity left.  Low price $1,700  S & H is $90

 

 

 

 In August 2010, CBS's Hawaii Five-0 chose Model Ship Master's USS Enterprise for its filming.
