RIP J.F.Kennedy

Wasn't John F. Kennedy scheduled to replace Kitty Hawk at Yokosuka
from 2008?

Some time ago in the Polish press I've come across a news that the
U.S. is seriously considering reducing their military presence in
Japan, shifting their units to more far-away places like Okinawa (so,
is re-basing of the whole CVW-5 from NAF Atsugi to MCAS Iwakuni
possible in the future?)...

I know nothing about any available ports for a carrier farther from
Japan. Anyhow, it seems the Japanese may finally accept the presence
of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in one of their ports.

Best regards,
