USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67)

The USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) is the only ship of her class and the last conventionally powered carrier built for the United States Navy. The ship is named after the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, and is nicknamed "Big John." Kennedy was originally designated a CVA (fixed wing attack carrier); however, the designation was changed to CV to denote that the ship was capable of anti-submarine warfare, making her an all-purpose carrier.

After forty years of service in the United States Navy, Kennedy was decommissioned on August 1st 2018. She is berthed at the NAVSEA Inactive Ships On-site Maintenance facility in Philadelphia and will become a museum ship in Newport, Rhode Island. The name has been adopted by the future Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier John F. Kennedy (CVN-79).

The design of the John F. Kennedy would serve as the basis of the Victorious-class supercarriers of the Royal Canadian Navy.
