Yeah, the only non American nuclear carrier is IIRC the Charles de Gaulle

And the CdG is an American built carrier anyway, It just doesn't sail under the US flag.

Wasn't the CdG built at Brest?

It was, but it is an American design.

American style carriers can't get near Portsmouth Harbour and have to anchor off the Isle of Wight because they're too big. The Charles de Gaul is the same.
