With lengths of over 1,000 feet, the Kitty Hawk-Class aircraft carriers was not only an improved version of the Forrestal-Class carrier, but it was the first super carriers that had an angled flight deck and steam catapult. The three variants within the Kitty Hawk-Class included Kitty Hawk (CV-63), USS Constellation (CV-64), and John F. Kennedy (CV-66). Each one had an impressive construction and design that officially set the standard for all carriers from then on.
