GDS Pathe

The GDS Pathe was a Global Defense Initiative aircraft carrier operating in 2047 on the United States' eastern seaboard.
==Background==
During the initial stage of the Third Tiberium War, Nod launched a coordinated attack on all GDI airbases in the northeastern Blue Zone, leaving the GDS Pathe - which was docked at Hampton Roads naval base - GDI's sole provider of air defense on the eastern seaboard of the United States.Electronic Arts Los Angeles, Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. Nod mission 4: "Hampton Roads".
However, Nod was able to smuggle a commando into the base, who destroyed the aircraft carrier, ensuring Nod air superiority and allowing them to reinforce by air.
==Trivia==
* The GDS Pathe also appears in the mission Tacitus Interruptus in Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, which takes long after it was sunk at Hampton Roads. Presumably, the developers of Kane's Wrath used the Pathe's model instead of the generic GDI aircraft carrier model by mistake.
** Similarly, two GDS Pathe appear in the mission The Doctor Vanishes, where they bring in Hammerhead reinforcements after Nod captures Dr. Alphonse Giraud.
