Lookin' great mako!

Dirty bird?

 

just a detail...we don't usually name our carriers as president's name, mainly because all of them did a craptastic job doesn't worth to be reminded

i bet our A-13 carrier will be called Pará or Rio de Janeiro (state names)

btw, there is a navy plan to build from scratch a new carrier at AMRJ right after our new scorpenes are finished.

true, as a matter of fact Dom Pedro II didn't abolished the slavery... unfortunately in the late 1888's his daughter, Princess izbel abolished the slavery with golden law, under the pressuder of republicans, one of the last acts of our empire...some months later the military took controll of power and Dom Pedro was exiled in france...he government brought some modernizations to our country such as telephones, eletric energy and fire corps, the parliment...
