Aircraft Carrier Bernkastel
The Aircraft Carrier Bernkastel or MRNS Bernkastel, hull designation CVN-07, is a Monarchii Nimitz-class aircraft carrier and the second flagship of the Monarchii's Invincible Fleet. The first flagship is the super-battleship Yamato as the main strong firepower of the Invincible Fleet.
She provided some air supports for the allied forces, such as airstrikes, surveillance, and helicopter backup.
History
Bernkastel, along with the other ships of the Invincible Fleet, has been deployed in a various naval operation, including Monarchii War.
Bernkastel was absent during the operation 'Frosty Whimsy'.
At the operation 'Pripara', Bernkastel was participated with the other ship. This operation was a large scale naval operation of Monarchii Royal Navy during the Monarchii War. The operation involving not-so-large group of the fleets, it is featuring the aircraft carrier Bernkastel aircraft carrier and her carrier air wings.
Sinking of Bernkastel, aftermath
Main Article - Operation Going Eleven
During the operation 'Going Eleven', the NeMaR rebel forces launches an all-out ambush to the Invincible Fleets using their naval power, and their unusual weapon, the flying tanks. Unfortunately, the Invincible Fleet cannot stand against the NeMaR attack. The Bernkastel has sunk along with the whole ships in the fleet. At the aftermath, the fate of Bernkastel carrier air wings are ultimately unknown. Whether they managed to evacuate themselves from the carrier or downed in actions, nobody knows.
Legacy
The fate of the carrier air wings are unknown. In cooperation with MGLA and WAEC who has declared peace with Monarchii and their allies, a project to build an "assault super carrier" was proposed, codenamed as Project Brave or CODENAME: Brave (Yuusha). As the carrier has completed, the project was later named as "Tsuchii Yuusha" or in translation "Tsuchii The Brave". The assault super carrier is believed to be a spiritual successor for the downed aircraft carrier Bernkastel. The Tsuchii Yuusha then deployed to participate in Siren War.

@Nerfaddict sweet
@windshifter1 sure
I visited an aircraft carrier once. EVN Ein. It was smaller than an American Nimitz, but my planet doesn't have nearly as much ocean coverage as Earth so navies aren't quite as vital to military power. The ship was in port and was open to the public so I thought I'd stop by to see it. It was quite interesting. I'd go again if given the chance.
@windshifter1 works for me
@windshifter1
Nice.

@Mousewithamachinegun122 @LunarEclipseSP @MonarchiiwithastolenMG People seem to be getting edgy so we can start maybe at the end of this week (Friday) or earlier if I can finish my classified creations.
@LunarEclipseSP @MonarchiiwithastolenMG
5th gen is finished, might make a carrier variant of it
@Mousewithamachinegun122 yep
@MonarchiiwithastolenMG
Sure. Once they get back maybe.
Mm, ship shop

@Mousewithamachinegun122 well, up to you, although i would appreciate it if you let me finish my Shirane first lol, should be uploaded pretty soon hopefully, finalising her armaments and moveability
@Mousewithamachinegun122 wait for the further information from @windshifter1, because we just have signed the MGLA statement treaty and we're currently undergoing a temporarily non-aggression period
@monarchiiwithastolenmg
How long was the cease fire going to last? Cause we are ready to resume. Maybe we could start again tomorrow? To give everyone a chance to prepare?
