The CP-642B Computer is a general-purpose, stored-program machine capable of rapidly processing a large quantity of complex data. Internal storage of the computer consists of a 32,672-word, 30-bit word length, ferrite-core main memory.
There's still a manual for this computer, too.
The SINS (Ship's Inertial Navigation System) reformatted the raw Sperry gyroscope data for use by the computers. And there's a tape drive unit that is also still moving. And lastly a close-up of the Core memory module.

CV-41, an aircraft carrier, was launched in 1945 and is now moored in San Diego as a maritime museum.I got some nice views from the flightdeck of supercarriers at the opposite piers:
The three vessels, from the left, are: United States Naval Ship USNS Henry J. Kaiser (T-AO-187), USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70), USS Ronald Reagan (CVN-76).
The CVN-70 and CVN-76 are Nimitz-class nuclear-powered supercarriers. (CVN: Cruiser, heaVier-than-air aircraft, Nuclear)
