The Enterprise now has a "Nimitz-style" tower. The aerial photo of "E=MC2" shows her with the original tower.

The Enterpise is a bit longer than the Nimitz-class carriers, but she has a smaller displacement.

The big square tower used to give the Enterprise a more severe "burble" for recovering aircraft when she was making her own wind.

Go Mobile Chernobyl.
