Angled Deck Carriers?
#6

I think this would actually be a great idea. If people are modelling early Navy jets and the Korean era then an angle deck carrier might be good (even though they didn't participate in the conflict). The USS Anteitam was converted during the Korean War to evaluate the angle deck and carried out operational testing from early 1953 onward. Also, many carriers operating off Korea had the the SCB-27 mod which included a modified island (although no angle deck), so these might also be good to consider.

I don't advocate Vietnam ops like many people but I think the inclusion of Korean era objects would be good for the sim and help generate even more interest. I've seen talk of adding a MiG-17 and although it's not a Korean War aircraft it was definately developed and become operational during that time.
