I've read that Trumpeter is releasing a 1/350 Nimitz class carrier.
I wonder (and hope!!) if they will release a 1/350 scale Forrestal class carrier - anyone in the know have anymore information?

The latest from Trumpeter is that the Nimitz is due for release in March, but it is anticipated that the date will slip some. Panda (and probably in cooperation with Trumpeter) has on ther website that they will release a George Washington and John C. Stennis.

Trumpeter also release their future plans for a 1/350 Russian Kusnetzov and a Lexington and Saratoga. No Forrestal class plans have been annouced. However, rumor has it that Panda will also be releasing an angled deck Essex class too.
