Is there an Essex class carrier for fs9?

[asos]

I wonder if there is an Essex class carrier --straight and\or angled deck--for fs9.

 

We have plenty of Nimitz and similar-class carriers, but I could not find a CV-9 Essex, or any other same-class carriers.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

16th download on that page is for an Essex class carrier for FS2004

Thanks mrzippy,

 

I will try that and see if it works for me, as what I want is a static carrier and not a pilotable one.

As a SMALL point - this is called CV-8! ESSEX was CV-9

I found exactly what I wanted :uss_lex.zip by Bruce Baker.

What mrzippy suggested will not do--it is a pilotable ship. I wanted a carrier I could launch from and trap on using naval aircraft.

 

I have already trapped and launched on this carrier with a TBF Avenger, using rcbco-20.zip.

With that, you must add a catapult gauge and a tailhook gauge on the 2D panel and you can launch and trap anywhere---even on land runways.This method does away with the need for arrcab, 3-Wire, etc... Will post some screenshots here soon.

The carrier is CV-16 USS LEXNGTON, Essex-class, angled deck. And I suppose one can repaint it as CV-9 USS Essex, and even place it at a different location.
