| 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 up position and large amount of water splashed out around the bow. Aircraft models on the flight deck appear to represent a notional heavy attack bomber. |
