when decommission... will they gift it to the corals of the North Malaysian Sea?

Make an island an create a dry dock, after that, bring it in, stabilize it, and than fill with concrete(up to the water line), encase it and preserve it for eternity.

Can strip out weapon and military system, and turn it into a diving resort.

Could eventually be a distraction for when Aliens try to invade Earth and they did not take into account a concrete block actually have bunker/ veterans holidaying in the tropics... somehow somewhere, when Alien comes, they secretly resupply some big guns to the carrier... and than booom... Alien's mothership got taken out, by a island resort.

Nuke reactor got fixed lifespan. Conventional vessel can extend life, nuclear reactor not so simple to extend life. Extend also risky.

Times up soon.

Take out all the critical parts. No problem. Take out
Nuklear Power generator. Put in some solar panels on the flight deck, add soil and grow grass, turn it into a solar park, with goats on top.

Below can convert to diving resort.

But surely the Americans have better ideas. Maybe A Trump diving resort at Gulf of America. They luv it! New destination for Spring breaks.

Generally once the nuke reactor is decommissioned, they will sell as scrap to recycle the steel. High tensile steel = more valuable.

97% of the materials can be recycled and the scrap process will take 2 years. Their last conventional carrier (Kennedy) just went to the scrap yard.
