Well, I don't know but I can tell you that you cannot fit more than two on the forward end of the flight deck. Here is a link to the Booklets of General Plans for Navy ships. These are the original plans by the builder. maritime.org/doc/plans/index.htmYou can find the carriers, the drawing with the flight deck, measure the width of the deck and examine the number of catapults. I'm not talking about WHERE you put 4 Cats, I'm talking about how Angled Flight Deck tech is supposed to let you have 4 Cats. When designing a new ship with Angle Flight Decks a warning specifically tells you that you CANNOT have more than 2 Cats. So this tech is BROKEN. This is an issue that's been ongoing. It was fixed for a few patches and I made ships with 4 Cats. But it doesnt work now. Ok, thanks for explaining this. I've gone ahead and deleted the post as it is not in line with the problem under discussion. I will stay out of this discussion, it isn't about real history. Sorry.

I really wanted to read that link about the Catapults... since our Ford class carriers should "go back to God**** Steam," says the President. I happen to agree with him wholeheartedly. EMALS is a COMPLETE failure. I mean, it wouldn't be SO bad if they had each Cat on a separate circuit, but no, one goes out it stays out till they all come offline. Even so, the basic failure rate in 2017 was so bad that a Carrier stood a 1% chance of completing a 4 day surge, lmao! STUPID idiots in the Navy that thought that **** up! WTH! @#$%&*! Ya, so repost that link!
