Summary
| Description | A preliminary design model of the proposed U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS United States (CVA-58) undergoing seakeeping tests at the David Taylor Model Basin, Carderock, Maryland (USA), circa 1947. This is an early version of the CVA-58 design, without catapult sponsons. Note the folding smokestacks in the down position, as they would have been during flight operations. Aircraft models on the flight deck appear to represent the Vought F7U Cutlass fighter and a notional heavy attack bomber. |
