(Fictional) The USS Tampa Bay was one of many Escort Cariers that where Built and deplloyed to the Pacific Theater during WWII
The USS Tampa Bay started construction at the Northfolk Naval Shipyard in May of 1940 and was launched in July of 1942.

● Flight deck length of 511 blocks (127.75 Meters or 419ft)
● top speed of 17 Knots
● features an aircraft elevator located at the front of the Hanger
● 6 refueling stations for aircraft, one retractable
● staircase on the starboard side that goes all the way to the waterline
● refueling winches on the port and starboard sides
● 1 functional Launch (The two at the rear are there for cosmetic purposes)
● fully functioning radar and radar room with map
● blinking landing lights (Can be toggled to solid)
● navigation, exterior and spot lights
● automated search lights
● throttles controllable from helm
● 12 quad anti-aircraft guns along with a variety of smaller anti-aircraft guns
● sink mode that simulates hard list to port eventually sinking by the stern

Sinking can take about 20-25 minutes. Starting with a heavy list to port, followed by the stern flooding about 10 minutes in, at the same time the list will begin to subside and now that the stern is flooded the engines will shut off, at around 20 minutes in the bow will begin to rise quickly almost becoming vertical. For the rest of the time it will very slowly sink
until it slips beneath the waves.

*Note*
i included 3 different missions in this play list (carrier only/ 1 fighter/ 1 torpedo bomber) because at or more than 2 planes the lag begins to increase greatly, fell free to add more plane if you like however i found that if you land a plane on the carrier that you spawned from a workbench id doesn't appear to create as much lag as one spawned in the mission.

I originally intended for this to be used in multiplayer (I.E. the simplicity of the ship and lack of many details) to keep the lag down, I have tested it in multiplayer with one other person and it ran smoothly (We used workshop spawned aircraft and attempted to land on the carrier, not the mission Spawned aircraft) Please let me know down below how well this runs for you and if you try it in multiplayer, I am curious to see how this will work for others.
