How much does it cost to run the nimitz class aircraft carrier?
160 million per year just for the personnel. add aircraft fuel and maintenance parts, and you're looking at closer to $400 million per year. add the cost of the carrier ($4.5 billion) and divide it over its lifetime (about 40 years) and you're looking at about $530,000,000 per year which is close to $1,450,000 per day. Carriers launch on average 18 times (with 18 recoveries) per day including time in port and time in shipyads. That means each carrier launch costs $80,600.
