CVN-65 is over 50 years old. It’s wore out. It needs to be replaced, not that Obama ever gave a crap about that.

Yep, the plankowners on the Big E are either dead or in their 70s.

CVN-65 and CV-63 hulls are still there.

It's just a question of funding if refurbing them would be faster than replacing them with Ford class CVN's that are having serious teething issues.
