US Billions $ FLYING Aircraft Carrier Is Finally Ready For Action
The US Navy is about to become the US Air Force. Aircraft carriers are about to become aircraft. Like the aircraft that take off from them, these aircraft carriers would take off to the skies as opposed to the seas - but for the same reason - to project the might of the US Navy in the brightest colors. Uncommon as the concept of a flying aircraft carrier is, it isn’t a new project and has actually been around since the times of the World Wars. And now, thanks to the advent of technology, they have received renewed attention and the US is once again aiming for revolutionary flying carriers.

The U.S.S. Gerald Ford weighs about 90,000 tons. That's over 180 million pounds. The amount of energy needed to lift that much weight would be mind boggling. Short of strapping a few Saturn 5 rockets to each side, it's a safe bet that the technology to pull this off won't exist for at least another century or two.

The problem of the number of Aircraft on a Carrier is not how many , but of the storage of them and maintenance. That's the problem for most, the Ford Class can probably carry more but if the hanger is full can maybe carry more on deck like some did in WW2 like when USS Hornet attacked Japan on the Jimmy Doolittle B-25 raid but had USS Enterprise as escorting it then.

The reasons most countries don't invest in aircraft carriers is that they are a bigger target. There are cold launch hypersonic missiles that can blow any aircraft carrier out of the water before any radar can detect it in time. Unmanned drones that can be programmed to attack a ship in swarms overwhelming the ship's defensive capabilities. The bigger the object the bigger the target.

Nope, it's easier to hide in the sky than land or water. Water is so dangerous, their is a lot of enemy to comprehend. With projectiles going down, enemy will just need little energy to attack. While in air with US perfect stealth there only few attacks to watch out, but even an enemy would detect them they will need more energy to launch an attack. Since projectiles going up consumes a lot of energy. Example weapons like cannons, high caliber bullets, small missiles, and torpedoes can't reach them only fighter jets and medium to bigger size missiles can reach them. Besides since ancient times there is always so called higher ground advantages. The higher you are the more invincible you will for any attacks. Same as goes to the sky.

Keep in mind that the Lockheed CL 1201 was conceptualized in the 1960's. Think about all the advancements in materials science, and computer modeling, that have occurred since that time. I speculate that it is very possible to build a viable, flying, aircraft carrier now.
The closest thing to a practical and useful flying aircraft carrier was a soviet concept design that used the ground effect to fly above water, this would allow the carrier to travel much faster than any conventional carrier and with minimal fuel cost, (+and it could fly over mines and torpedoes I think) while still being stable, safe and capable of carrying refueling and rearming state of the art full sized fighter jets + all the other crazy shit aircraft carriers do and more. & It could float the idea of an actually flying carrier is ridiculous for multiple reasons: Fuel use would be insane, A flying aircraft carrier could easily be shot down by a missile, and unlike a normal carrier the crew wouldn't have time to abandon ship or salvage planes since they would be falling to earth 3mud air refueling does the same job for a much lower cost and the fuel tanker are much harder to hit, (the only thing it can't do is rearm planes) 4, if you went the route of a large plane carrying parasite fighters, they would be hopelessly out competed by a larger more advanced and more equipped fighter jet taking of from a runway, 5 today is all about stealth, missiles can be fired from over the horizon and can be almost undetectable, the best way not to get seen and shot down is not to be detected, good luck building a stealthy flying aircraft carrier, And 5 an airship wouldn't be much faster than a ship

The first aircraft carriers were *dirigibles?* No, I'm sorry, but that's simply not true. Granted, the USAF was only created as a separate service in 1947, but the origins of its predecessor, the United States Army Air Corps, go all the way back to the First World War. However, the USAF has never operated any aircraft carriers of any kind, and probably never will, so I hardly think the date of its creation is even remotely relevant to your absurd claim to the effect that, "the first aircraft carriers were airships." In reality, both the Royal Navy and the US Navy started developing aircraft carriers years before the aircraft-carrying airships (of which there were only ever two) were ever built. The Royal Navy's earliest attempt at developing an aircraft carrier was during the First World War, and used modified Sopwith Pup fighters with an elongated skid attached to their undercarriage. The US Navy's first aircraft carrier, the USS Langley, was already in service years before the "airship aircraft carriers" ever flew. Furthermore, the only two airship carriers ever built could only carry a handful of fighters, and the "trapeze" style aircraft launch/ recovery system never really worked out. Meanwhile, naval carriers could carry dozens of fighters and attack planes. Additionally, there's also the fact that both of the US's "aircraft carrier airships" ended up as complete write-offs after encountering trecherous weather conditions. I believe one was called the "USS Akron," and the other the "USS Macon." If I recall correctly, one was lost off the east coast while the other was lost off the west coast, although I'm not entirely certain about that last detail. Neither the Germans, the British nor any other major military power ever even *tried* to develop "aircraft carrier airships," despite what you might have seen in "Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade."🤣 So no, airship aircraft carriers were *not* the first aircraft carriers, and the only two ever built proved to be a very short-lived and costly experiment that ended in *abject failure* both in terms of material costs and lives lost.

@@jlawrencereilly1949 You need to work on your reading comprehension, because you obviously misunderstood what I wrote. Let's review, shall we? First, I disproved your erroneous claim that *the first aircraft carriers were dirigibles.* They weren't, as stated. Then I showed that the only two attempts at building aircraft carrier dirigibles, which happened years AFTER the first naval aircraft carriers were developed, proved to be complete and utter failures. So just to be crystal clear, let's go over it one last time; I never claimed that aircraft carrier dirigibles *never existed,* I simply refuted your false claim that they were *the first aircraft carriers.* They weren't, in fact; both the Royal Navy and US Navy began developing naval aircraft carriers years before the USS Macon and Akron were ever built, thus making the Macon/Akron definitively *not the first aircraft carriers.* That was the whole point, which you somehow managed to miss.🤣 So what have we learned from this? Well, we've learned that you were 100% *wrong* about dirigibles being *the first aircraft carriers* because they definitely weren't; we've also learned that dirigible aircraft carriers didn't work once they were tried, years *after* the first naval aircraft carriers were built; and we've learned that you have trouble understanding written English.🤣 You might want to work on that, chum.😉

@@That70sGuitarist None or the hydrogen fill airships worked but the fact is England built flying airships that they did successfully launch and retrieve a sopwith camel aircraft and because of how difficult and the crashes they decommissioned them and the US Navy came along in 1924 with their first water based carrier. although the nave tried again in 1031. I think your the one with a comprehension issue. Actually no need to review.

@@jlawrencereilly1949 "the navy tried again in 1031...?" And which navy was that, exactly? The Norman navy?🤣
So let's say Flying Carriers would become the next weapon if the future, this means that the US Aircraft naming system would have to change, because C stands for Cargo, so it would have to be something else
thank you . ( 2023 / Dec / 19 )
