Over Sioux Falls, the James A. Lovell, Edwin Aldrin and Jupiter'' approach the aerospace shipyard in the outskirts of the city. The three ships are towing two deactivated US flying ships with them: the Sky Ship Valkyrie and Sky Ship Armstrong. Recently, Commodore Harmon realized that with the massive involvement in outer space, the United States should increase their naval activity beyord Earth's orbit. The Pandora was a candidate for this refit but a complete redesign of the hull was unnecisary (instead the ship will be given a warp drive and engines simmilar to the Lovell for propulsion). ''

The Valkyrie will be converted into an aerospace battlecruiser and bear the name USS Valkyrie (CCA-01) while the Armstrong will stay as a carrier but will named USS Neil Armstrong'' (CVNA-1969). The aforementioned Sky Ship Pandora will be renamed USS Pandora (CCA-02) and be classified as an aerospace battlecruiser. ''

Commodore Harmon hopes that with the recommissioning of these three atmosphere-only ships into aerospace vessels will encourage the rest of the Navy to contribute in America's mission to bring freedom to the galaxy, and form alliances with more aerospace fleets.

OOC: Much like the Nimitz-class, this is just the reactivation of inactive vessels and refit. I believe that all vessels in the USNF that can fly in space and the atmosphere should have "aerospace" in the vessel type and have the letter "A" in the abbreviation (like when Marc commissions the Space Iowas, they'll have the hull number BBA-01 [they're called either the Iowa IIs or just the Iowa-class but without "space" in their names]). Also, I started the Valkyrie last night and will continue tonight. Again, I'm not building the Pandora but just gonna give it the warp core.

Also, the giant wind turbines will be replaced with the ion-engines on the stern.
