Speaking as retired US Navy and having spent 8 years on carriers …. there is far more to effective carrier operations than simply specs on a data sheet. The biggest advantage, and most important imo, the US has over China is experience. All of our systems have been tested for decades, new systems are designed with decades of research and experience to draw on, our crews are at sea every day of the year across the globe. Our carrier groups are well oiled machine. We know what works.

@Mishmash Japan had a lot of carrier experience back then. That is what they used to attack Pearl Harbor. What the US had was manufacturing capabilities beyond Japan’s. That is how the US was able to win; churn out more ships than Japan ever could. When the US sunk most of Japan’s carriers in an ambush, there went the experienced crew. China today can churn out more ships than the US can and the US has more carrier experience than China. See the similarities? Today the US is Japan and China is the US of WW2
@FakeAssHandsomeMcGee_2 жыл бұрын
But if the Chinese are able to sink most of our carriers, will we face Japan’s situation with a lot of our experienced crew going to the bottom of the ocean? And remember China can manufacture more stuff than the US can. Very similar to how the US outperformed Japan in that metric back then. If China sinks most of our carriers, there goes power projection if we don’t include submarines. And all the while China is cranking out more carriers and warships/subs in the meantime. And since we don’t believe in land-based long-range missiles, we might be forced out of most of the pacific. Probably forced back to the mainland.

Land-based air cover has its own weakness. For example, if you want to maintain air superiority over a patch of the ocean, doing so with land-based aircraft would require you to maintain a useful amount of fighters over said area. This can be very inefficient, because you need to keep a lot of aircraft in the air. Even worse if that area is far away from your airfields. If you have a carrier, your carrier can sit in that area, and deploy the fighters when needed. The only thing that keeps flying is the early warning aircraft.

How smartly you use what you have (strategy and tactics) will always beat a greater force (like David versus Goliath). That's why greater focus on training in both army and navy academies is SO important. Advanced hardware capabilities are important yes, but without well-trained, strategic, outside-of-the-box thinkers, that advanced capability can be easily lost on the battlefield against a foe who may posses better training (more tools in the mental toolbox). And training is the least cost when compared to the price of military or naval hardware.

Carriers rely on a dedicated and experienced crew for flight ops. It takes decades to build that kind of knowledge and training. You have to build a professional culture around it. That's not the way the Chinese or the Russians do things. It takes one mishap to shut down the deck and the ability to launch and recover aircraft. The US Navy has been in training and development of flight ops since before WW2, I've seen a carrier flight deck crash first hand and it's a nightmare, but our sailors are so well trained for just such an incident. We trained like we meant it, serious business. It took decades and countless mishaps just to get the training right. I guess my point is that you can't just build one of these and put to sea with newbies and expect anything but a horror show.

You are forgetting the competence of the pilots and ground crews. The whole purpose of a carrier is to launch and recover aircraft and to have them capable of fighting. You can have the best carriers in the world, but it will only as good as the pilots. Can they land at night? Can they land on a pitching deck? Can they combine both? Can they fight? The Americans can

China is fighting USM in its doorstep. Entire China is a unsinkable carrier with thousands of fighter jets, bombers and missiles. With experience gain, Chinese pilots can do as well as US if not better. In WWII and Korea war, Soviet and US trained Chinese pilots had proven their quality. Chinese aveIQ=107, well above US subpar 98. Carriers are for power projection against small country with no means to retaliate, like Iraq and Libya.

Part of a carrier's survivability is measured by its ability to stay far out at sea, far away from patrolling land-based air-power. A carrier that does not have the ability yet to replenish her task group at sea and instead has to visit ports for the purpose can not stay hidden. When she visits port, everybody knows where she is, for targeting purposes. And another thing. Entering and leaving port is the most vulnerable time for a carrier vis-a-vis attack from either mines or torpedoes. She has to run that gauntlet just to get out onto the missile target range. Every surface ship, submarine and USAF bomber for 1,500 miles around is within firing range just waiting for the order to pull the trigger. Which carrier would you rather be on?
@ShepherdMao2 жыл бұрын
That's where the supply ship comes in. Nuclear-powered carriers that want to avoid docking at port need supply ships for other supplies even though the carrier itself doesn't need refueling. Moreover, other ships in the battle groups are not nuclear-powered.

In this modern day and age, it has become impossible to hide your capital ships at sea. Doesn't matter if you are China or the USA. I always have to laugh at that statement that because the US carriers are nuclear, they can stay powered for years. Yes, the carrier can, but the carrier also has a crew. They also need to eat and drink. Sick and injured need to be treated and if necessary, evacuated. A US carrier rarely travels without the carrier group, that's a lot of ships, and not all of them are nuclear powered, in fact, most aren't. So you still have the exact same issue.

@hifinsword2 жыл бұрын
@@4132h Your statement seems to assume drones will be slow and not maneuverable. Presumably you think they all will be flying high enough for midrange SAMS. That is only part of the total picture. No doubt there will be a role for such slow and easy shot drones, as diversionary targets to overwhelm SAM systems. While the SAMs try to target and shoot the diversionary drones, the primary threats will be flying either under the radar, or electronically shielded by ECM equipped drones, and approaching a target independently from multiple vectors for a simultaneous time on target. It will be a new wrinkle to current tactics but, without endangering human pilots. Such drones do not have to be connected to outside nav or control. They can be programmed before launch to a target without a need to update via GPS. Updates can happen as they do now, with multiple visual geographic points of reference all contained on an internal digital map. The main threat to these new battlefield drones will be the 6th gen fighters/interceptors, but it will be a numbers game until the 6th gen are equipped with laser type weapons that are basically unlimited loads. Current missile and bullet constraints will be overwhelmed with false targets to shoot at.

“Numbers will be our only advantage”. So sick of these “subject matter experts” who have no clue what they’re talking about. The Gerald R Ford class is the culmination of over 100 years operating carriers. No amount of money China can throw at a carrier will beat experience. The GRF class also has 4 catapults unlike 003s 3 catapults. Pretty sure there are more elevators and ordnance elevators on the GRF. No carrier operates alone, US carrier strike groups are objectively better. The Ticonderoga and Arleigh Burke class with their AEGIS radar system, provide protection for the carrier that is unmatched by any navy. There’s also the air wing itself which once again favors the US. The US has been doing high tempo sorties on catobar carriers since Vietnam and we have learned a lot from aircraft like the A4 and F4. The USN took it upon themselves to set the standard for safe and effective carrier operations for the entirety of NATO to benefit from. Again, no amount of money is going to make China catch up to the USN in quality and efficiency.

What is the safeguard of a carrier if enemy launch for example 12 anti ship high precision missiles targeting the carrier from different locations at the same time? I think it is quite impossible to avert the carrier from hitting the missiles and complete destruction of the carrier is almost certain. So, in practical combat with a strong opponent use a carrier has no use but a chance of losing the entire carrier and aircraft int it.

That’s the reason why Carriers don’t go alone, they travel with destroyers and cruisers… they will never ever go alone because their anti-missile capability isn’t very good.

@@tonyvan8688 : It's nice to have the carrier guard with cruisers and destroyers but these are i think not enough as the enemy's launch a flock of anti-ship missiles targeting the carrier. Practically not all the missiles are taken down by any anti-missiles system. Just a one or two missiles out of many could hit the carrier and destruction of the carrier and air crafts in it is highly likely.

Just ridiculous chinese propaganda. China has not 3 carriers: two of them are old soviet scraps bought used from Ukraine, same design of that soviet carrier without sufficient toilets that keeps being towed around because turbines keep breaking down. As well the air strip with raising toboggan is totally inefficent. CCP knows, so they have made this knockoff that looks like a modern carrier. It will work as well as any other chinese knockoff: lookalike, not the real thing. The US Navy has 11 nuclear supercarriers, modern, fully operative and manned with experienced staff. In a confrontation, the knockoff carrier and the soviet scraps would be hopeless, likely sunk in few days. China, militarly compared with the US, is still laughable. That's why they bark hysterically but don't dare to invade Taiwan. Very simply put. Stop spreading chinese propaganda please.

A Nuclear powered AC does not need to refuel, but it still need other supplies like Food and Water, also some amount of fuel is needed as back up. So, given that China only plan to use their AC in East and South China Sea, where they can get their supplies very easily as close to their shore, this seems not to be very problematic

A Battle defines the action and response of a crew not political affiliation, because without free thought you're dead. American military personnel are well trained and well versed in both using their individuality and working together in teams for a wide range of issues and emergencies. The same can not be said of the Chinese military who are mostly conscripts and are political show pieces without any real battle experience for over 60 years. Watching the Chinese flight deck crew...well it all looks like a parade without experience and confidence.

The advantages for America is that they have been using an aircraft carrier for so long, probably the 2 countries that used carriers before America is Britain and Japan before WW2. But after WW2 the Americans were master of the land, sky, water, and underwater. The Chinese doesn’t have enough time in the sea to rival the American knowledge about naval warfare. The Americans will stay the power of the war for a long time. Plus, America is a big stickler on technology and powerful allies.

As I see it the most important concept here is "how" China has reached it's current state of readiness. By offloading the bulk of our manufacturing industry to our ideological enemy, the US likely became the largest financier of China's current fleet. Couple that with the devastation caused by the loss of American jobs and we might have been better off had we just given China a completed carrier.
@yeejlilys97422 жыл бұрын
The first question is who offloaded American manufacturing industry to China? Did China force America to do it or America capitalists did it for huge profits? The second question is whether or not America finance China's current fleet. Please do not forget America borrows trillions of dollars from China. Actually China acts as one of America's banks.
