Incredible Life Inside World's Largest $13 Billion Aircraft Carrier

The aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford is one of the most cutting-edge and expensive pieces of military gear that has ever been constructed. It is commonly believed that sailors aboard aircraft carriers work and live in harsh conditions, but this cannot be the case for those serving on the new Ford-class aircraft carrier. This aircraft carrier, which is estimated to cost somewhere in the region of $13.3 billion, provides incredible living conditions for the sailors who are stationed onboard. Let’s take a look at the incredible life of a US Navy Sailor on the world's largest $13 billion aircraft carrier. Apart from being a gigantic structure, Sailors' comfort is a centerpiece of the new supercarrier, USS Gerald R. Ford.
Sailors will call the ship home for an extended period. The aircraft carrier has more than you can imagine. It has large gyms, grocery stores, excellent air conditioning systems, specially equipped rest areas, and sleeping quarters.
An enlisted sailor serving aboard the aircraft carrier Nimitz published a Facebook post that quickly went viral. The post displayed a variety of truly revolting-looking meals from the mess deck, including raw and bloody roast beef, bread edged in blue mold, and eggs with fossilized yolks.
The sailors serving on the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford won't have to deal with a scenario like this since a variety of steps have been taken to ensure that the mess is in its best condition it has ever been.
There are several dining options for about 15,000 meals a day. One of the most notable differences between the Nimitz and the Ford regarding the provision of food is that the Nimitz has five galleys, while the Ford only has two. The Ford galleys include features such as a centralized galley located at the rear of the aircraft and a front galley that will only be staffed when the carrier's air wing is aboard. While this means the ship's food service crew will be more centralized and dish up more consistent, it also means that officers, chiefs, and enlisted sailors will be eating the same food -- even though they still eat on different mess decks.
