Product Description
USS Nimitz (CVN-68) was completed by 1973, but not commissioned until 1975 due to the late delivery of essential components for her nuclear powerplant. In 1975, Nimitz joined the Atlantic fleet, ending Enterprise's reign as the largest warship in the world. The carrier's flight deck is generally the same as that of the Kitty Hawk, but with the cut-off forward flight deck first seen on the John F. Kennedy. Between 1975 and 1985, Nimitz made numerous cruises in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. In 1980, the carrier made a round-the-world deployment. While in the Indian Ocean, she served as the sea borne base for the abortive Teheran hostage rescue mission, Operation Eagle Claw. At the start of the 1981 Mediterranean cruise, the F-14 made its air-to-air combat debut when two VF-41 Tomcats from Nimitz shot down two attacking Libyan Sukhoi Su-22 fighters. In 1987, Nimitz transferred from the Atlantic Fleet  to the Pacific Fleet, embarking Air Wing Nine which had previously been attached to the USS Kitty Hawk. Due to a shortage of F-14Bs, Nimitz's two Tomcat units transitioned back to the F-14A in early 1992. Plastic cement and paint are required for assembly, and are sold separately.

"A fantastic tale… intelligent and entertaining." - Time magazine. The USS Nimitz, America's mightiest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, is on maneuvers in the Pacific Ocean when it is suddenly engulfed in a freak electrical storm and hurtled back in time to December 6, 1941 - mere hours before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Should the captain allow the Japanese to complete their mission or launch a massive strike that will forever change the course of history?

Starring Kirk Douglas and Martin Sheen, this 1980 movie was filmed aboard the USS Nimitz will the full participation of the U.S. Navy and the ship's crew. Widescreen, Dolby Digital 5.1, 1 hr. 43 min.

From the Webmaster: This is one of the best movies that I have ever seen.  It's just great and I have to have a regular dose of "The Final Countdown" to be a happy person.  Even my 92 year old mom loves to watch this one.  There are some great flying scenes and even some shots of the A-7 Corsair Flying.
