     On board the Linear Motor, the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System Kennedy will be in service. On Oct. 29, the No. 12 shipyard at the Newport news shipyard began filling its locks in preparation for the launch of the navy's No. 2 Ford nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the Kennedy, on Dec. 7. So, who is the Kennedy? What's so special about it? 

     As far as the linear motor editor is concerned, the Kennedy is a new nuclear powered aircraft carrier for the U.S. Navy that is not yet on a comparable scale. Construction started on the Kennedy in August 2015 and was not scheduled to launch until February 2020 The Kennedy has been launched four months earlier. 

     One of the bright spots of the Kennedy is undoubtedly the extension and optimization of its electromagnetic launch technology. The so-called electromagnetic ejection technology is the use of aircraft carrier under the flight deck of the linear motor ejection carrier aircraft. Launched on October 11,2013, the Ford XXI is equipped with electromagnetic catapults, compared to the traditional steam catapults The electromagnetic ejection equipment has the advantages of small volume, low requirement to the shipboard auxiliary system, high efficiency, light weight and low operation and maintenance cost.

     In addition, Kennedy will carry 22 F35C stealth fighters, five E2D AWACS, 22 FA18EF fighter attack aircraft, five EA-18G electronic aircraft, 11 MH-60R helicopters, and four to six unmanned aerial vehicles, the military understands With more than 80 aircraft on board, the advantage of the linear motor eml is that the output energy can be adjusted, so whether it's a 31-ton F35C (peak take-off weight) or a large or medium-sized UAV, can Be ejected from the Kennedy.
