Arrived in Marmaris
By Icmeler Marmaris on Feb 10, 2011 in Local
U.S. aircraft carrier USS Enterprise arrived in Marmaris resort city in western Turkey on February 8. It will anchor off Marmaris for 4 days. At 342.3 m, she is the longest naval vessel in the world.
Enterprise is also the only aircraft carrier to house more than 2 nuclear reactors. Her 8-reactor propulsion design was rather conservative, with each A2W reactor taking the place of one of the conventional boilers in earlier designs. There are around 4.000 personnel on board the carrier.
