The Scanrúil-class is the currently-active class of seven aircraft carriers built for Royal Ossorian Navy starting in 1980. The class is comprised of the ships Scanrúil, Neamheaglach, Buacach, Dúshlánach, Cáiliúil, Treallúsach, Dochloíte, and Rathúil.

Design

General characteristics

The Scanrúil-class ships have an overall length of 333 m, a beam of 41 meters at the waterline and 77 meters at the extremities, and a draught of 11 m. The ships displace approximately 106,000 t at standard load. Each of the ships' four sets of geared steam turbines drive one 5-bladed propeller and are powered by a pair of liquid fluoride thorium reactors and are rated at 280,000 shaft horsepower. This gives the Scanrúil-class a speed of in excess of 30 knots.

Flight deck and hangar

The Scanrúil-class ships have an armored flight deck which is 333 m long. The class is fitted with an enclosed hangar, an angled flight deck, arrestor gear, and four compressed steam catapults. Four deck-edge elevators (three starbord and one portside) allow aircraft to be transferred between the hangar and the flight deck. The ships' aircraft capacity is rated at 90 aircraft, but the typical Carrier Air Wing consists of no more than 86 aircraft. The ships' crew totals 5,700 officers and ratings.
