Actually, a new reactor design, automated weapons-handling/transfer equipment, and other similar features has reduced the ship's crew on the Ford class to ~1,900 vs ~3,000 for the Nimitz class... for a total of 4,660.

So just the ship's crew on Ford is just about the total crew+airwing complement of CVF. Ah, well.
