I did all the engineering for the die cuts and folds (no glue required) as well as the deco.

CVN-75
At work, I recently completed a book for Scholastic Publishing that contains a paper model of CVN-75 USS Harry S Truman. The first third of the book is editorial and the rest is the paper model on card stock. It builds up to be 24" long.

Very clever, Paul, that's gonna be a hit with a lot of kids! And it'll make a good Christmas present.

I bought a similar one for my son about 20 years ago. It was not as well designed as yours.

These guys just gave me an idea for a wedding cake if I ever do pop the question to a certain special someone...
I doubt she'd approve of a cake shaped like an aircraft carrier though...
