You are correct sir - but that's an odd picture

 

it looks like a USN aircraft carrier - possibly the "Lexington" but probably an earlier (see edit below - its the "Intrepid" - with a whole herd of different aircaraft parked on it - like a museum.........

 

I can see an F-14 (Top Gun), a British Scimitar, n F-84, a Mig 21 (non sea going) yer Sr-71 (non sea going), an A-7 Crusader II, an A-6 Intruder, ????, F-4 Phantom, Sky Demon, A-5 Vigilante, A3-6B Skywarrior, ????, Harrier (on the lift), ????, A-10 Mohawk, Gulfstream Trader, Tracker (with radome), 2 helicopters - one possibly a Bo-105 the other a Sea Cobra
