so, you are telling us all that your little carrier which needs its own gas will carry MORE jet fuel than a big carrier that is nuclear powered.
Well as it is powered by Trents I would assume it will be fuelled from the same supply as used by the aircraft, so it probably will carry more jet fuel than a nuclear carrier.

Size isn't everything, it only takes one torpedo to sink a carrier, nuclear powered or not..
