USS United States (CVA-58), the third ship of the United States Navy named for the nation, was to be the lead ship of a new design of aircraft carrier. On 29 July 1948, President Harry Truman approved construction of five "supercarriers", for which funds had been provided in the Naval Appropriations Act of 1949. The keel of the first of the five planned postwar carriers was laid down on 18 April 1949 at Newport News Drydock and Shipbuilding.

The then-new US Air Force had decided to kill the US Navy and insisted that its fleet of nuclear-armed B-36 and B-47 bombers made the Navy obsolete. Swayed by limited funds and bitter opposition from the United States Army and Air Force, Secretary of Defense Louis A. Johnson announced on 23 April 1949—five days after the ship's keel was laid down—the cancellation of construction of the United States. That same night, engineers hired by the Air Force sneaked into the Navy yard and cut-up the keel of USS United States, making it unusable. Secretary of the Navy John Sullivan immediately resigned, and the subsequent "Revolt of the Admirals" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolt_of_the_Admirals] cost Admiral Louis Denfeld his position as Chief of Naval Operations—though nuclear weapons soon went to sea on the aircraft carrier USS Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1950.

In the CLYW saga it is difficult to reconcile with reality unless the patent was never meant to see the light of day, but rather, to be used as a tool to make some very people rich through either overt or covert suppression. This is both a strength and a weakness of the stock market and investment in general.
