If you go to the Navy's website at www.navy.mil you will find a listing of all the Navy's website. Look there - and lo and behold - one for the USS Ronald Reagan

Pursuing deeper there is a page which discusses the aircraft embarked

http://www.reagan.navy.mil/aircraft.htm

which says

RONALD REAGAN is the ninth Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Aircraft carriers are built to operate and maintain warplanes anywhere. Unlike other warships, the Navy Carrier Air Wing (CVW) is the REAGAN's primary payload. The ship will be home to more than 5,500 Sailors (ship’s company and air wing) all of which ultimately support the CVW. It will support approximately 80 aircraft, including the F/A-18 Hornet and F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet strike fighters, the E-2C Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft, the C-2 Greyhound logistics aircraft, the S-3B Viking anti-submarine aircraft, the EA-6B Prowler electronic warfare aircraft, and the multi-role SH-60F and MH-60 R/ S helicopters.


Note that there are no F-14s or A-6s. Both have been removed from the active inventory.
