	Ticonderoga class aircraft carrier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ticonderoga class aircraft carriers were thirteen aircraft carriers of the United States Navy.
		The class was an outgrowth of the closely-related Essex-class of aircraft carriers.
		Of the six unmodernized Ticonderogas, three decommissioned in the late 1950s and early 1960s and were promptly reclassified as aircraft transports (AVT), reflecting their very limited ability to safely operate modern aircraft.

	USS Ticonderoga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first USS Ticonderoga was a 17-gun schooner of Commodore Thomas Macdonough's flotilla in the victorious Battle of Lake Champlain on 11 September 1814.
		The second USS Ticonderoga was a steam sloop-of-war which served with distinction during the Civil War.
		It was to become the lead ship of the Ticonderoga class, though it and other ships of this class are often subsumed into the Essex class carriers.

	Ticonderoga class cruiser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ticonderoga class cruisers are the first warships in the world to use phased-array radar; the increased combat capability offered by the AEGIS combat system and the AN/SPY-1 radar system justified the changing of the classification of Ticonderoga and Yorktown from DDG (guided missile destroyer) to CG (guided missile cruiser).
		The newer 22 of the 27 ships (CG-52 to CG-73) in the class will be upgraded to keep them combat-relevant, giving the ships a service life of 35 years each [1].
		One ship of the class, USS Vincennes, became infamous in 1988 when she shot down Iran Air Flight 655 resulting in 290 civilian fatalities, which the captain of Vincennes had believed from radar returns was an Iran Air Force F-14 Tomcat jet fighter on an attack vector.

		TICONDEROGA sailed from Pascagoula in February, truly "Combat Ready," with a demanding schedule ahead, and with the knowledge that her systems, construction, and the TICONDEROGA men who man her are the very best.
		Ticonderoga returned to the combat area in late May. For the remaining two and a half months of the Pacific War, her planes made regular attacks on the Japanese home islands.
		Ticonderoga went back into active service in 1866, after modifications to her rig, and was sent to European waters.

		The hull and the propulsion system of the SPRUANCE class were the basis for this new class of guided missile ships but AEGIS and numerous other installations caused an increase of the displacement of almost 1,000 tons.
		The TICONDEROGA - class cruisers were the first surface combatant ships equipped with the AEGIS Weapons System, the most sophisticated air defense system in the world.
		During the construction of the SPRUANCE class destroyers there was a contract that Ingalls had to deliver the ships ready for commissioning.

		Description: The Ticonderoga class cruisers were the first vessels in the US Navy to mount the AEGIS combat system and the associated SPY-1 Passive Phased Array Radar.
		These were originally planned to be mounted on a nuclear propelled platform but the cost of the new technologies along with the expense of nuclear propulsion was too much even for the US Navy.
		Instead the Ticonderoga class uses the same hull as the Spruance and Kidd class destroyers.

		The Ticonderoga class medium carrier is heavily armed compared to the other TDF capitals due to it's advanced dual spam/anti-spam power reactors.
		Hence, upon completion of the five Ticonderoga class carriers, the TDF short-term goal will expand it's light carrier support line and examine the use of "marsupial" designs in the next generation of light fighters to enable many types of lighter capitals to support them.
		The Ticonderoga class medium carrier is but one of the new ships that the TDF has bought recently.

		The foundation of Ticonderoga’s capabilities — and the surface warships that followed — is the Aegis combat system, which coordinates the operation of all sensors and weapons.
		Ticonderoga made the first deployment of an Aegis warship in October 1983, a tense period at the height of the Cold War.
		Ticonderoga steamed into harm’s way and provided U.S. commanders with capabilities not found on any other single ship in the nation’s arsenal.

		Two classes of destroyers are currently in use by the US Navy: the Spruance-class and the Arleigh Burke-class.
		Formerly known as DD 21, the program will now be called DD(X) to more accurately reflect the program purpose, which is to produce a family of advanced technology surface combatants, not a single ship class.
		DD(X) is no longer called Zumwalt class, and is much larger than traditional destroyers, being nearly three thousand tons heavier than the Ticonderoga-class cruiser.

		The U.S. Navy designed this class of cruiser as the centerpiece of an air defense ballet that encompasses other cruisers, destroyers and frigates in intersecting zones of defense.
		The AEGIS detection, control, and attack network is the means of conducting this ballet, and the Ticonderoga class provides this capability in conjunction with all the ships in a surface task group.
		With the addition of AEGIS equipped, Arleigh Burke destroyers, the Ticonderoga class becomes the master of a multi system defense grid unmatched in any Navy in the world.

		The Ticonderoga uses the same gas turbine propulsion system as the Spruance, though it lacks hull stabilizers and is equipped with supplemental Kevlar armor to provide additional protection in critical areas.
		The class' ASW capabilities are improved with the addition of the SQQ-89(V)3 towed passive sonar array.
		Though similar in design to earlier ships (specifically the DD963 Spruance class destroyer), the Ticonderoga class differs in that its primary weapon system is not a weapon at all, but the powerful SPY-1 Aegis radar.
