Russia has announced plans to build ‘the world’s biggest aircraft carrier’ to take on America’s Nimitz class ships.
The new Shtorm craft, known as Project 23E000E, could cost up to $17.5billion each and enter service by 2030.
Shtorm class carries would be powered by nuclear reactors and carry up to 90 aircraft, including the newly designed T-50.
The new craft will feature a deck the size of three football fields, house 4,000 crew and need specially designed docks to fit inside.
