Maybe, the big ship isn't announced yet. The AIF wanted to make sure the ship worked properly before making her public. It would be the ultimate PR disaster to have this big supership have a critical system failure at an unveiling. A nation that has a flying ship that can't lift clear of its dock will never live that down....
