The Congression-Class Cruiser/Carrier is a class of Cruiser/Carriers operated by the Libriran Navy. The ships are the newest and largest carriers currently in the Libriran Fleet. They were designed in the 1970s and 1980s, to be perhaps the ultimate evolution of the Cruiser/Carrier concept. However, due to their excessive cost only 2 were constructed and 1 of those was laid up to save on operation costs.
