I was on the the Teddy Ruxbin CVN-71 when we left Norfolk on Dec. 27th and prior to launch of the first Tomahawk in Jan 16th we were through the Suez and well into the Red Sea so those big girls can make time. I was also on board for Sea Trials after dry dock and the high speed turns and shake outs tell you there is some power under the hood.
I well respect Highway speeds as that is what I had heard also.
