Tier 10 U.S.A. Aircraft Carrier
Essex

The abandonment of the London Naval Treaty allowed American shipbuilders to return to the projects of aircraft carriers with a displacement of 27,000 tons. The project based on the Yorktown class featured improved armament and armor, advanced equipment, a greater number of aircraft, and other improvements. USS Essex, built according to this project, participated in operations in the Pacific Ocean, the Mariana Islands campaign, and the Battle of Leyte Gulf. She also covered the landing on Iwo Jima and provided air support during the Korean War. During her service, USS Essex received 17 battle stars.
