↑Over the years the stern of Forrestal changed and looked quite different, as can be seen by comparing the color photo (November 2006) to the black-and-white, pre-1964 picture, and the September 1987 image. Photo NS025951f: A Phalanx CIWS was mounted here. On the 01 level from port to starboard: smoke/pyro locker, platform, tool storage and issue. On the 02 level all the way across the stern is Aviation storage. On the 03 level all the way across the stern is Aviation storage again. Platform for the azimuth dome of the SPN-41 radar, part of the automatic landing control system. SPN-41 had two separate antennas, to measure the elevation and azimuth angles of an incoming plane. The former was sponsoned out to port, between the island and the after end of the angled deck; the latter was located on the fantail. Jet engine test stand area. Image courtesy of NavSource.
