Now, Tom Clancy welcomes you aboard for a detailed look at how these floating behemoths function. With his trademark style and eye for detail, Clancy brings you naval combat strategy like no one else can. Carrier includes:* Takeoffs and landings: flying into the danger zone* The aircraft onboard: their range, their power, their weaponry* The role of the carrier in modern naval warfare* Exclusive photographs, illustrations and diagramsPlus: An interview with the U.S. Navy's Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Jay Johnson
