Words on the street saying that 002 is under build at JNCX

JNCX would not be building LHD
Wasnt that idea put forward when they wanted to save money and only use one carrier. When the idea was to sell the Prince of Wales and only keep QE.
Then the cost whent up and they choose to go back with the VTOL-plans on both carriers again.
where did you get this info?

Kitty Hawk wasn't the last oil-fired carrier of the US-Navy.
The article says it was the last one in service/last to be decommissioned in the USN which I think is accurate.
Unless you're counting LHDs
