How Many Aircraft Carriers Does Each Country Have?

How Many Aircraft Carriers Does Each Country Have? Explore the world of aircraft carriers and discover the countries with the most powerful war machines on the high seas!
Aircraft carriers are some of the most powerful war machines in the world. They are usually the centerpiece of any Navy because of their ability to transport aircraft all over the world. But not every country has one, in fact, out of the 195 countries in the world, only a select few have at least one aircraft carrier. One country even has 11 aircraft carriers. So what country is it? And what other countries have aircraft carriers? Who would win if conflict were to break out on the high seas?
Learn about Brazil's Atlantico, China's Liaoning and Shandong, France's Charles de Gaulle, and more. Find out how countries like Russia, Japan, and the United States dominate in this arena and which carriers are currently in operation. Dive into the fascinating history and capabilities of these military marvels and see how they shape global conflict. #aircraftcarrier #warship #navy

People today have this idea that countries are all the same, that the US is just another self interested superpower with the same ruthlessness as China or Russia. The US is fundamentally different. There is a reason so many countries wish to join NATO. There is a reason there are more US military bases abroad than any other country. It is because the US has foundational values, goals, and an outlook that will not screw over countries in the same way China or Russia may. Spying, deterrence, and aggression are inevitable. I don't like it, but thems the facts. When faced with that, I am glad the US has more Acs than any other country. Wouldn't want it any other way.

I was privileged to serve as a Supervisory Inventory Management Specialist at FAWPRA Det Cubi Pt, Philippines, in the late '80s. Our activity serviced all military aircraft in the Seventh Fleet aboard aircraft carriers. Our team usually boards those ACs to repair CAG's fighter planes. I've seen the last F-4 decommissioned, and those repairable parts were retrograded to the Mainland. It was FUN working on this activity. I considered it an immense privilege to board some ACs, like the Enterprise, Coral Sea, Carl Vinson, and others while at berth at Alava Pier, delivering parts and tools needed by our crews to work on those planes.

Kinda undersold the QE class carriers here. They are capable of carrying around 70 aircraft in surge conditions, 24 F35s is only the peacetime number and 36 would be the minimum wartime figure. They will be the most capable outside of the US after 2023 when more F35s have been delivered. They're also the most advanced carriers in the world, baring maybe the Ford class and have so many autonomous systems that they only require a crew compliment of between 700-1200, compared with the Ford's 4000+. The QE class are also the only carriers in the world designed purely to operate the F35 and future aircraft. Aside from cost, there was another reason the QE are not nuclear powered and that is because many ports around the world, including several commonwealth ports do not accept the docking of nuclear vessels limiting the ports US and the French carriers can dock at.

Only vertical take-off burns through alot of fuel. 2. They shorten take-off runways required onboard carriers. Remember the movie Midway from a few years ago? If the head winds and speed of the WW2 carriers were not great enough, the carrier aircraft stood a risk of ending up "in the dunk" or water during take-off. 3. By using them, they negate the installation of catapults.

[@BlackEpyon]

@@eddihaskell With the ski-jump, you need to launch on full afterburners, because you have no catapult. That limits the amount of fuel you can bring with you.

The Ford class aircraft carrier is very advanced, and China will only be able to build a nuclear powered aircraft carrier in 2027. Afterwards, it will maintain the goal of launching three nuclear powered aircraft carriers every three years and quickly reach the scale of 10.

[@SkepticalChris]

The statement of the Russian aircraft carrier is being a capable ship is indeed true. The Russian carrier has proven to be the most deadly naval ship in modern military history...... To its own crew.

[@asatechnics8363]

one russian word for your big aircraft carriers ''zircon'' ..... just saying

[@Witnesshell]

Capable in providing 10KM of black smoke and deadly in a way of don't inhale the smoke because you will be very dead indeed.

[@acosilicon]

It's not just about having an aircraft carrier. It's also about whether a country has enough fund to maintain it. You don't just built something like that and leave it to rot in the sea. Maintenance costs a lot. They have to resupply it, pay the crew, provide support units (other smaller ships) and performance maintenance regularly to repair any structural damage to the air carrier. The operational cost could surpass $1 billion per aircraft carrier per year. This could translate to $6-$8 mil per day.

[@steveclapper5424]

Much like battleships reaching their zenith in WWII a good 30 years or so after they were already obsolete. So have aircraft carriers today you will never see one near a sophisticated opponent. Besides aircraft carriers are not defensive weapons their only use is offense and they represent an truly astronomical amount of money.

Your rational as to what made the list or not is somewhat confusing. You say many ships are discounted as they are called cruisers or amphibs. Most of the vessels shown were amphibs, and at least one a cruiser 😂

As an X Navy man I know Carriers are complex systems and require a lot of expertise. You don't build them or man them over nite. China plans to make six just to defend South China Sea. There supply lines will be next door to their Carriers. Our supply line are not next door. Master Soon spoke of this imbalance. We better correct it before confrontation.

If it ever come to a sea battle I probably won't matter much all I see happening is tremendous civilians getting sencelessly killed as usual and a senceless war goin on for 10 to 20 years,chit will hit the fan big time cause no one has learned from previous wars.its goin to be a mess but its human nature to protect there assets and assure they have a endless supply of fuel and food thats what will ensure a side wins instead of being happy with what they have it is our flaw as human beings.
