Chapter 405 Commissioning The First Nuclear Aircraft Carrier
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Alexander, the Emperor of the Ruthenia Empire, strode purposefully through the bustling crowds of St. Petersburg Port. His sharp eyes scanned the horizon, taking in the impressive sight of the newest additions to the Imperial Ruthenian Navy, all lined up in pristine formation along the dock.
The towering structures of the naval warships, from sleek destroyers to imposing dock landing ships and intimidating submarines, were a magnificent sight to behold. Each vessel, with its gleaming metal exterior and powerful engines, exuded an aura of strength and capability.
But it was the aircraft carrier that truly captured the attention of the crowds. The Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier loomed over the other ships like a giant among men, a testament to the Ruthenian Empire’s immense naval power.
As Alexander approached the carrier, the crowds around him grew denser, a sea of excited voices and flashing cameras. The Emperor surveyed the behemoth with a sense of awe, his eyes tracing the contours of its sleek design.
Without a word, Alexander stepped up onto the gangway and strode confidently into the lower deck of the aircraft carrier. The enormity of the vessel seemed to dwarf him, but his gaze was unwavering.
As he made his way across the deck, Alexander noted the many sailors who were hard at work, their uniforms crisp and clean despite the rigors of naval life. He exchanged brief nods with a few of them, impressed by their professionalism and dedication.

For a moment, he stood in silence, lost in contemplation of the Ruthenian Empire’s vast power and the responsibility that came with it. Truly, the Ruthenia Empire has changed from a backwater nation to a world superpower.
Oh, he just noticed the name emblazoned on its hull before entering the aircraft carrier, “St. Petersburg.” It stood out earlier in bold relief against the gleaming metal exterior.
Despite the Navy’s naming convention, which dictated that vessels be named after emperors or important battles, Alexander had opted to name this ship after his nation’s capital. It was a bold move, but one that he believed was fitting for the mightiest ship in the Ruthenian fleet.
As he descended to the flight deck, his gaze was drawn to the rows of empty chairs waiting to be filled by high-ranking politicians and military leaders. The ship commissioning ceremony was a momentous occasion, one that would mark the official inclusion of the aircraft carrier into the Imperial Ruthenian Navy.
Alexander made his way to an elevated platform at the center of the deck, where a podium had been erected for the occasion. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, savoring the salty sea air.
Exhaling in satisfaction, he turned to take in the view of the bustling port below. The crowds were thick, and the excitement was palpable as people jostled for a closer look at the mighty warship.
As he stood there on the flight deck, gazing out at the sea of faces below, he knew that he had done his duty as Emperor, and done it well.
Alexander’s thoughts were interrupted by a familiar voice, calling out “Your Majesty.” Sergei, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, approached him with a look of eagerness on his face, clearly impressed by the Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier before them.
Smiling with satisfaction, Alexander acknowledged Sergei’s statement, “Indeed, Sergei. It is a symbol of our nation’s strength and resolves.”
The Foreign Minister then leaned in to ask a question that sparked excitement in Alexander’s eyes.
“If I may, Your Majesty, what are the specifications of this ship?”
The Emperor launched into an impromptu lecture, his eyes gleaming with pride as he described the intricacies of the Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier. He explained that it was a modern engineering marvel, measuring over a thousand feet long and weighing in at more than 100,000 tons. With a nuclear power plant, the carrier boasted a top speed of over 30 knots, making it one of the fastest aircraft carrier in the world.
Gesturing towards the massive flight deck and the array of advanced weaponry, Alexander elaborated on how the ship could launch and recover dozens of aircraft in a single operation using its powerful catapults and arresting gear. He explained how this could be done with pinpoint precision, making the Ruthenian Navy a formidable opponent.
The Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier was not just about speed and firepower but also designed to be an impenetrable fortress, with layers of armor and advanced countermeasures to defend against enemy attacks.
Sergei couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe at the sheer power of the ship before him as Alexander continued his lecture.
Looking out at the crowds below, Sergei saw that he was not alone in his admiration. The throngs of people who had gathered to witness the ship’s commissioning ceremony were a testament to the deep respect and reverence that the Ruthenian people had for their Navy and the men and women who served on its vessels.
Thirty minutes later, the attendees finally arrived on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier.
Alexander prepared himself, recalling the speech he had memorized from his office before heading to this port.
Once everyone took their seats, Alexander began.
“Esteemed guests, members of the Ruthenian Navy, and citizens of the great Ruthenian Empire, it is with great pride and honor that we commission the St. Petersburg, the first Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier in our fleet.
This vessel, built with the finest craftsmanship and the latest technology, represents the culmination of our nation’s commitment to military strength and national defense. Its power, speed, and agility are a testament to the ingenuity and determination of our engineers and designers, and to the unwavering resolve of our people to defend our nation against any threat.
As we commission the St. Petersburg into service, we pay tribute to the brave men and women who will serve on this ship, and to all those who have served in our Navy and armed forces. It is their courage, sacrifice, and dedication that have made our nation strong and free.
May this ship and all those who serve on it always carry with them the values and traditions that have made our Navy great – honor, duty and commitment to service. And may it always be a symbol of our nation’s resolve to defend our freedom, our security, and our way of life.”
