Did I read it right that they called the USS Nimitz a battleship, under a picture that clearly shows it being an aircraft carrier?

The resolution on the picture is not great. Trying to ID some of the ships he made.

The British Carriers - Centaur/Heremes class. Some Type 42s right at the back.

Really love to see those in detail.
