​@@shredthecable8883 I see, thanks! Read about her now... Didn't know she was the first nuclear-powered carrier ever to be built! And she's now awaiting to be scrapped? WTF why not make the Enterprise into a museum ship, and put her next to the Iowa? Nuclear reactors too much of a hassle and liability? Perhaps the entire hull became a bit radioactively contaminated and will stay so for many decades now? But I mean if someone served on her for years, surely a 2-4 hour museum visit by civilians won't be hazardious... But perhaps a nuclear vessel is not "museumable" because nuclear tech is highly guarded to this day?

[@ChristnThms]

This was truly humorous. The extravagant lengths gone to announce each of the Soviet carriers scavenged by other countries, as if they'd created them from scratch is great. It was a great prelude to the punchline. I really appreciate how you skim over the many amphibious ships of the USN, with a single entry. Listing them by type, let alone acknowledging that we have several of each, would really throw your count off. It's good setup for the punchline though. Then, we get to the punchline, where you casually let it slip that the #2 slot isn't actually a ship, but a class of ship with 10 already built and at sea, and another 4 on the way. So yeah, if you listed them individually, as you did for every other navy, the entire top 10 would be USN carriers. But, if you're going to list them by individual ships, let's go with the top 50... In fact, let's have fun, and be sure to include the submarines too, and the logistics ships that allow the rest of the navy to function. Yeah, it wouldn't be fun then. It could even be a little depressing, to realize how truly lopsided the world's navies are.

[@Delta36A1]

@@tonytye8963 Not sure why I am bothering to engage in this childish pissing match as I actually think they are both decent ships (although one is clearly better), but if you really want to go down that route and use the same old joke that seems to be all foreigners can ever come up with to insult Americans "Durr hurr Americans are fat haha". Lets instead set aside the insults/trolling and examine the facts: 1. The Queen Elizabeth class carriers typical loadout is around 40 F-35Bs and some Helicopters with a maximum possible loadout somewhere around 55-70ish. Nimitz class carriers typically carry 60-75 aircraft of all types with somewhere around 50 of those typically being F/A-18 variants (F-35Cs will replace the non-super hornet F/A-18 variants at some point.) and a maximum theoretical aircraft load of somewhere around 85-90. So yeah needless to say in terms of aircraft loadout the extra displacement is certainly not wasted. 2. The Nimitz class also uses the vastly superior CATOBAR configuration so that it can use traditional non-STOVL planes for example the F-35C rather than the vastly inferior STOVL F-35B. Not just that, but it can actually launch and recover planes decent payloads while using STOVL greatly hinders the weight of payloads that can be carried. Once again a significant capability advantage for the Nimitz that accounts for a significant amount of the displacement that you label as being "unnecessarily overweight". 3. In another noteworthy capability gap between the two ships, the Nimitz is Nuclear powered while the Queen Elizabeth is diesel and gas-powered meaning that not only is the "overweight yank" embarrassingly faster than the Queen Elizabeth, but it also does not need the same logistics chain for fuel and at least in terms of propulsion has effectively unlimited range (Although I will concede that the range and logistics point is somewhat mitigated by the fact that the other ships in the Carrier Strike Group are not nuclear powered. Also, they still need food, other supplies, and maintenance.) So yeah needless to say the extra displacement from the Nimitz doesn't go to waste.

[@tonytye8963]

@@Delta36A1 Going on about why a 9 or 12 billion carrier is better than a 3 billion carrier is'nt much to do with the original point or particularly groundbreaking. The point was size and the first person being patronising about it, to which you pretty much jump in and support because you are upset over a bit of banter. If the 3 or 4 times more expensive ship wasn't more capable there would be something very wrong indeed, it's not an arguement or even the argument. That arguement was reference size and my point was that there isn't a great deal of difference in deck size and hanger size for the QE to be patronisingly called cute by the Nimitz class. And if a form of launch system is retro fitted ever, there won't be that much difference concidering the expence and crew hike. There has been plenty of overpower facilitated into the QEs, that was the one nod they did to future lauch system possibilities, the most difficult bit. Emberrassing speed difference is about 5 or 6 knots or maybe slightly more in capability, not really embarassing as fleets move slower, but put in the usual patronising and exagerrated way that Americans do on KZbin. And unlimited range is a very expensive top trumps games card, for kids to show off about and not much more. Nuclear has many dissadvantages as well as some advantages, the biggest myth is not needing to be refuelled, not only do the aircraft need fuel, the carrier does as well, in the form of nuclear rods(bloody expensive ones at that), it's just a different method that is easier and carried onboard and routed in an out of service/use electronically and remotely. The RN has never had nuclear surface ships and doesn't want them, because of the dissadvantages in the UKs RN circumstances outweighing the advantages in their view. The UK would need to build the facility to build the reactors, it would have to train everybody, it would have to build larger decommissioning sites, it would have to import foreign fuel and be dependant and it would cost the price of one ship to decommission them both at 1.5 billion each, and the ships would cost 3 or 4 times as much, as well as 2 year ir more long overhaul programs that a smaller navy can't capability wise afford, but the bigger navy can work around. Many of our commonwealth allies have nuclear port restrictions and as you said but played down. Whats the point of unlimited milage when there is a limit to the size of half way round the planet and the ships can be refuelled on the move anyway,. All of your surface support fleet is none nuclear powered, they are hardly going to be left behind. Sorry but in the UKs position this is a no brainer, and we would have Zero carriers if they were nearly 12 billion each. No way the Nimitz can patronize the QEs because its a bit bigger and a bit faster, for 3 times the price, and 3 times the crew, but way less than 3 times the sortie rate, in fact not even near twice at the max. There WILL be a launch system fitted one day, as F35B will not last 50 years, its a decade or two at most and something will replace it, i'm hoping Tempest will happen and it can be married into the carriers, hopefully with a lauch system as well.

It depends on how you measure displacement. Britain usually quotes the displacement of its ships when on a standard, peacetime load. "Full load", ie. When off to war and fully loaded with its maximum number of aircraft, weapons, and manpower, would increase its displacement significantly. I read, but I'm not certain of it, that China and the US always quote the full load figure when stating the displacement of their ships. (Again, that may be misinformation).

The 10th spot should have gone to the Izumo class DDH of the JMSDF. Although classified as a "helicopter destroyer" , in reality its a carrier. With little modifications it could carry the F-35 fighter. Its length and displacement are nearly the same as the Kirov. However if may be able to support a higher displacement than advertised if equipped with fighters. And the Kutznetsov is only nominally a seaworthy vessel. It spent most of its existence in drydrock under repair. And when it has been put to sea, it usually has a tugboat assigned to it in case it breaks down.

In truth, the figure provided for the HMS Queen Elizabeth Class carriers is when the carriers are empty. Fully loaded tonnage would be somewhere around 72,000 tons.

Sory but I must correct you about the name of fighter jets - you called it Rafael but they are namen Rafalle. Rafael is a name of a person (you know, like Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Rafael, ninja turtles 😉), but the aircrsft's name is Raffale which means continious, uninterupted shooting. You know like on spot at the time - single direktor or you can dispurse a raffale (whole magazine of bullets...

[@mranderson1972]

This is poor. Should rename "10 Longest" if that's the only metric you are using. And don't then mix up facts about loads, you are quoting full load with some, standard load with others. For example the Russian/Chinese carriers are circa 55k long tons standard load, the QE carriers are 65k by the same measure. And the QE is British, which is Western Europe, so CdG is not therefore the largest in WE.

[@sml27100]

In Russia, aircraft carriers have never been built, only aircraft-carrying cruisers, that is, a ship that itself can fight with different types of targets because it has a lot of weapons, unlike Western "barges"that need protection because they can not protect themselves.

[@victoreous626]

LOL Hmmm Barges need Tugboats. I can think of only one Barge Carrier that has Tugboats sent out to sea with it. Care to guess the weak sisters name? Hint: It is a Russian name.

why is the kirov battlecruiser listed when its not a carrier?

[@berikhermin7376]

You said your going by length and the longest one is 1,092 feet in length and the USS enterprise is 1,123 feet in length. As well as number seven should be the Japanese aircraft carrier shinano which was originally a Yamato class battleship but later converted into an aircraft carrier.

[@suzukirider9030]

Shinano didn't make it to 2020 though... But yeah, she was hands down the largest AND most armored carrier of her time. The latter might've been for nothing though - later carriers dropped any armor entirely.

Nimitz and Ford class is the best

[@martyndyson9501]

I would have thought the russian carriers, 1 kept by russia and 2 sold to india and china were all exactly the same especially interms of length and displacemrnt? Im no expert but thats usually how it works, all the nimitz class carriers built by one country are should be the same when it comes proportions, that would be part of the design and the blue prints for that class of carrier, so i doubt the russians would make those 3 different lengths and weights, and by smallish margins that dont make any difference at the end of the day anyway! I bet there exactly the same but will have been changed on paper! Also if you was going to do this video properly you should take in all its dimensions, including deck size, hanger size, air wings at maximum ( capable of carrying at wartime) and most important displacement, then calculate them all together and find the biggest ( yes it means more work than just picking length as your only factor then writing there beam,displacement ect on the screen) it will take you longer than 2 hours to make BUT it will be a good video that people will like and tell you they like instead of the comments you usually get! However i doubt you actually give a shit how good and accurite they are anyway and especially couldnt give a fook about the comments section ( if you read them atall, its not your first rodeo, youve been around for years m!

[@xinyansun9174]

The one sold to India is the predecessor of Russian Kuznetsov and Chinese Shandong, thus inferior. But the Indian carrier got a better jet Mig-29K, more suitable for takeoff on ski jumps than Chinese J-15. Addition: Russia built 4 Kiev class carriers. One is scrapped, one is sold to India as INS Vikramaditya, and two are sold to China as museums.
