Aircraft Carrier - USS Lego

A new ship is set to join the US Navy. The aircraft carrier Harry S Truman. No, not the aircraft carrier that joined the fleet in 1998. The all new, improved and miniaturized Harry S Truman. Oh, and it happens to be built entirely out of Lego blocks.


USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75) is the eighth and the last Nimitz-class supercarrier of the United States Navy, named in honor of Harry S. Truman (1884-1972), thirty- third President of the United States. This pic on the right is the real Aircraft Carrier Harry S Truman.

The real thing is one of the largest ships afloat - and this amazing copy is the biggest one ever made out of Lego.

Father-of-two Malle Hawking, 36, used more than 300,000 lego bricks to build his scale model of the USS Harry S Truman from scratch.

The Harry S Truman is one of the largest carriers in the US fleet. The full size nuclear powered aircraft carrier carries 85 warplanes and more than 5000 airmen and crew.
