Scrapped, sunk or saved! That's what the future holds for all aircraft carriers. Aircraft carriers may all start similarly, with the keel laying ceremony, but where they end up upon retirement, is #NotWhatYouThink #NWYT

@Navin Kumar Yes yes of course. I just said that because there are fewer around in my country nowadays (Argentina). Idk why, I heard it's a good bike, but here most bikes are between 110 and 250cc, and most bikers want either a workhorse or a sporty bike. The V15 doesn't fit either description, it's more of a cruiser(ish). Pulsar (Rouser) models are way more popular.

Because of their reactors the newest Supercarriers will probably never end up as a museum ship. In general its kind of sad that such a little amount of especially Battleships and Heavy Cruisers (from all nations) from WWII have survived as a museum. :(

We actually have 8 battleship museums in the U.S. Wish the U.K. had saved HMS Vanguard, though. Beautiful ship. There really is a dearth of heavy cruisers museums though. And it’s very sad that the last conventionality-powered supercarrier, USS John F. Kennedy, wasn’t saved as a museum. KMS Prinz Eugen would have been a great museum ship as well! You should check out the battleship New Jersey channel, it’s excellent!

Tips (which you probably already know, but others may not): they have some areas which can only be seen by tour, such as the island (small and cramped), so sign up for that tour first and schedule everything else around it. The engine room may or may not be accessible without a tour (I do not remember) but take it, as they will describe things you will never figure out on your own. She was my home for 3.5 years, and they did, and are doing, a fantastic job of making her into a museum. I've only been on her as a museum ship twice, and the first thing that surprised me was the smell just before the top of the gangplank. Home! Some combination of paint, grease, fuel, who knows what. I had not expected that at all. I never even would have remembered it if someone had asked me.

My reuse of the Enterprise would be a little different. With missiles and drones of today I would repurpose the ship and a screening ship for the fleets. Put as many anti missiles as you could on her with drones flying around if one get through. Plus it could control under water drones to intercept torpedo's. But they will scrap it.

Actually, the USS Card, a Bogue Class Escort Carrier, was sunk by Viet Cong commandoes in Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City) harbor in 1964. She was serving as an aircraft transport (AVT) at the time, but she was, in fact, "the last" American carrier sunk by enemy action. She was refloated and repaired and scrapped in 1971. You also miss the fact that the US nuclear carrier fleet (CVN's) need to be scrapped in a way completely unlike the conventional carrier fleet. Because the CVNs need to be defueled and certain sections are too radioactive to be safely preserved, they can neither be "saved" as a museum ship, nor "sunk" either in a "SinkEx" or as an artificial reef/diving wreck. They can't even really be towed to Brownsville for scrapping. So, with the passing of the (old) John F. Kennedy and (old) Kitty Hawk, we will not have a "new" or preserved carrier museum ship and as the Nimitz class (and beyond) come to their end they will all need to be disposed of at one of the Navy's nuclear ship deactivation facilities. It's kind of sad.

The USS Bismarck Sea was named after the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, which occurred from March 2nd - March 4th, 1943. The Japanese were attempting to send a convoy with soldiers and supplies to Lae, New Guinea where they were fighting the Australians and the Americans. The US Navy successfully intercepted the convoy, and then sank 4 destroyers and 8 transport ships.

50+ years lifespan for American super carriers. It takes 5 years to build each one. US navy have 11, ten in active service and 1 either entering or leaving service. 2 or 3 of the ten are undergoing minor or major refurbishment. So say 7 usable. The active 7 spend half the time on deployment IE can use immediately. Other half on replenishment of supplies or training. Deployable at a few hours or days. But might take days to get to the hot spot. The longest refurbishment is the mid cycle refueling and major upgrades about 6 months at the 25 year mark. The 2 latest carriers will bypass the refuelling cycle.

Owner of the Baylander: "So I own an aircraft carrier and turned it into a restaurant." People: "Awesome!" Owner: "Would you like to get on the ship?" People:"Yea!" The moment of pure disappointment when they see the Baylander.

Another fate that can befall a ship (though I don't know if any carriers were sold) is being sold to another navy to continue service. The most famous example of this is the USS Phoenix, which after surviving Pearl Harbor and WWII, she was sold to Argentina under the name ARA General Belgrado, which was lost during the Falklands War

plenty of Carriers have been sold to other countries, The Argentine Navy bought the Karel Doorman from the Netherlands and called her Veinticinco de Mayo and also used her in the Falklands war. Ironically, she was originally HMS Venerable and originally served in the Royal Navy. Ex-British carriers also served in the Canadian, Australian, Indian, Brazilian & french fleets. Former US Navy aircraft carriers have served with the British, French and Spanish Fleets. One Soviet Carrier was inherited by Russia and sold to India. Another Soviet carrier was under construction in Ukraine and it was sold to China who completed it.

Actually there was small armed riverboats , like those apocalypse now, that were fitted with a helicopter pad so technically that was smallest aircraft carrier.

Traditionally, aircraft carriers have some way to carry aircraft - not just a landing-pad. By the Baylander definition, the average frigate's a super-carrier.
