Here's what I've got. It still needs a bit of work but its more or less done.

USS Victoria

Government Type:
Stratocracy - Strictly speaking the USS Victoria still operates in much the same fashion it did before the Cataclysm with the primary difference being that the captain has full authority to promote or demote his crew as he sees fit and that his XO will automatically assume his rank and position should something happen to him.
Head of Government: Captain Shawn Taylor
Persons of Importance: Commander Lyssa McCarthy
Commander Raynard Azor
Lieutenant Colonel Hugh Meier
Race:
Prewar Humans - For the most part they are “standard” humans and have had limited genetic engineering done to them. For the most part this genetic engineering was intended to reduce birth defects, increase resist to diseases, and extend the person’s youth (but not their overall lifespan). Some individuals, those hailing from wealthy families, had more invasive genetic engineering done and have been altered to be more physically attractive and a slightly longer lifespan.
Population: 2,953
Culture and Religion:
The majority of the Victoria’s crew are either one of the numerous christian denominations or atheist. The culture of the ship is what one would expect from pre-Cataclysm America: freedom oriented, individual based, and hardworking.  
Pre-Cataclysm Technology: By definition the USS Victoria and everything in it is a piece of Pre-Cataclysm technology. Of important note, besides the military equipment located on the ship, is the existence of an electronic library containing much of the Old World’s technological knowledge.
History: The Cataclysm caught most of the world’s population by surprise, but there were some who had come to expect, or at the very least be wise enough to prepare, for the worst. Project Pandora was a USN project designed to ensure the survival of the human race in the event of geothermal nuclear warfare. Project Pandora entailed the construction of massive submarines that would seek shelter under the arctic ice caps during the war and ensuing years of nuclear winter. Once the surface was safe, the submarines would then aid in the reconstruction of the United States and her allies and, if necessary, continue the fight against her enemies. The project produces three Enduring Freedom-class amphibious assault submarines in the years leading up to the Cataclysm.

Of the three submarines only the USS Victoria was fully supplied and prepared to conduct its mission. Once the Cataclysm began the USS Victoria immediately sought refuge under the arctic ice cap as per her orders. The crew was put into a cryogenic sleep and were supposed to be woken 10 years later in order to ascertain the surface’s condition. Unfortunately something went wrong with the system, resulting in the crew remaining asleep until recently.
Military: The fighting force on board the USS Victoria is divided into three groups: the crew of the USS Victoria who are in charge of operating and maintaining the ship, the marines under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Meier, and the air wing under the command of Commander Azor. The marines and air wing are both subordinate to the USS Victoria’s commanding officer, Captain Taylor. 

The USS Victoria is a massive amphibious assault submarine. It is designed to be able to act as both a traditional amphibious assault ship and a submarine. The Victoria is an absolutely massive submarine and has many of the facilities one would expect to find on a normal aircraft carrier. Its primary power source is a nuclear reactor, however it also has fuel cells that it can use when it wants to operate silently. While it is not designed to engage other naval vessels in direct combat it does possess a variety of missiles, torpedoes, and CIWS.


Sentinel patrol boats are small stealth craft designed to be able to perform a number of maritime operations ranging from scouting to transporting troops. These ships are lightly armored and armored, relying on speed and stealth to avoid hostile fire. These craft come with a single 20mm railgun and can be outfitted with two 8mm machine guns if needed.
In Service: 2



By the time the Cataclysm had begun the F-41 Firefly, models C and E, had become the US Navy’s primary carrier based fighter. At the time it was noted for being a nimble fighter, able to use a combination of its particle-beam weapon and  20mm railgun to great effect on enemy fighters. The VTOL capabilities of the E model made it especially sought after for the use on carriers. Unfortunately it was noted as lacking staying power in a fight, having only four hardpoints and a low fuel capacity when compared to contemporary aircraft.
In Service: 12


The F-42B Starfire was designed as an ‘all-purpose’ aircraft. The use of modular parts allows for the craft to be geared better towards different roles in between sorties and also make it easier to upgrade. The Starfire is noted for being an incredibly fast fighter, much more so than the Firefly, however this comes at the cost of the Firefly’s agility. The Starfire is equipped with a particle-beam weapon, two 20mm railguns, and eight hardpoints that can be fitted with missiles, bombs, or fuel tanks.
In Service: 4


The AH-5 Tiger is an attack helicopter designed to provide ground troops with close air support. It is equipped with two 20mm railguns and two rocket pods. The Tiger is noted for being a durable craft, although its wings are weak points.
In Service: 8


The UH-7 Super Mustang is a massive transport craft capable of carrying either a platoon of soldiers or an armored vehicle. It is well armored, but lacking in armaments thus requires an escort.
In Service: 2



The M4A1 Armstrong is an IFV capable of fighting main battle tanks and is designed to float, allowing it to “swim” in water. It has a three man crew and is capable of carrying ten soldiers into combat. It is equipped with a 20mm railgun and 7mm machinegun and can be outfitted with a rocket pod, anti-air missile, grenade launcher, and other armaments depending on its mission.
In Service: 12


Advanced Warrior Armor is a pre-Cataclysm set of power armor designed for use by the US marine corps. The armor is designed to provide the soldier with protection from various kinds of danger including chemical weapons while also increasing the user’s strength. Despite the intent to protect from chemical and biological weapons, it was well known that the Advanced Warrior Armor’s filtration system would only last a few minutes before being burned out by contemporary chemical weapons; it is not known how useful it would be in protecting the user from “modern” chemical weapons.

This kind of reminds me of this tv show (that I think was also a book).
Can't remember its name, but the whole ship thing is similar.
