Count of Nuxenstat (CVN-1) is a Battle-class aircraft carrier of the Royal Radictistan Navy and one of the largest ships in service. It is one of three nuclear-powered aircraft carriers operated by the RRN. The ship is named after one of the titles of the reigning Grand Duke of Radictistan, Xenocimedes Radicti. It is assigned to the Forward Fleet and homeported at Saerkust Naval Shipyard. The ship was ordered by the RRN from Consolidated Naval Construction Group, a Questarian shipbuilder. In one of its few long-distance deployments, the carrier was sent[1] to the coast of Underium to provide security for the transportation of emancipated slaves to Radictistan. The carrier also participated in Operation Mezzanine, the deployment of a Radictistani peacekeeping force to the divided island of Indras, and remained on station to provide emergency close air support to the Radictistani forces[2] before being relieved by the Count of Spauling.
The ship carries a complement of MiG-29K and Su-25RM aircraft for air defense and strike missions as well as anti-submarine warfare, airborne early warning, and search-and-rescue aircraft.
