    Aircraft Carriers completely changed the landscape of war with the ability to launch attacks much closer to enemy territory and retrieve the aircraft without sacrificing the expensive machines. But these behemoths of the sea were not always the dominating war machines we know of today. Check out our epic new video to learn about how aircraft carriers have evolved to become a staple in every major military's arsenal.

    Aircraft carriers existed during the American Civil War. Hot air balloons were launched and returned to ships to keep a lookout on the Confederacy Coast with some even venturing in land before returning. The frist heavy aircraft carriers (that carried planes appeared later)
    Edited 8/2/221849 the Austrian Navy ship SMS Vulcano was the frist to use balloons from the ship for military bombing in the first offensive use of air power in naval aviation. However these balloons were unmanned and were recorded to have also dropped their payloads back onto Austrian lines. American unionists did use manned balloons for warfare

      @@bejaminmaston1347 Aircraft carriers are warships that evolved from balloon-carrying wooden vessels into nuclear-powered vessels carrying scores of fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. Since their introduction they have allowed naval forces to project air power great distances without having to depend on local bases for staging aircraft operations. Balloon carriers were the first ships to deploy manned aircraft, used during the 19th and early 20th century, mainly for observation purposes. The advent of fixed-wing aircraft in 1903 was followed in 1910 by the first flight from the deck of a US Navy cruiser. Seaplanes and seaplane tender support ships, such as HMS Engadine, followed. The development of flat top vessels produced the first large fleet ships. This evolution was well underway by the early to mid-1920s, resulting in the commissioning of ships such as Hōshō (1922), HMS Hermes (1924),[1] Béarn (1927), and the Lexington-class aircraft carriers (1927).

    AEGIS defenses, along with patriot and THAAD, (designed to intercept ICBM re-entry vehicles at various ranges) can hypothetically target and defeat hypersonic missles (which are slower then re-entry vehicles.) They travel in mostly straight trajectories and their mobility is limited due to speed. Close in engagement systems like the Phalanx deal with massed carriers threats. Not to say it's indestructible, but it doesn't sail by itself. It has a whole fleet of capable ships that coordinate together to protect the carrier

      Not so much.
      Remember the old adage of 'using the right tool for the job'? At sea, nothing really beats what the aircraft carrier is capable of. However, like all valuable assets, you will want to protect it. No carrier group goes without a hefty ASW and AA screen.
      I've heard comments like yours concerning tanks and so on. The tool just needs to be used properly.

    Technically, the first "aircraft carrier" was the Lon Springstead in 1908. During the early 1900's Alexander Graham Bell (yes the telephone guy) teamed up with aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss in Hammondsport, NY to test their Red Wing aircraft. They did this on a mostly frozen Keuka Lake and used the Lon Springstead to transport the plane to the best section of ice. There's actually pictures of the event. So while the plane didn't take off or land from it, this was the fist time a plane had ever been transported via water.

      It’s a nuclear reactor. It doesn’t use that much uranium, so decades worth of uranium doesn’t take up that much space.

    It seems to me that the carriers are just massive targets and extremely expensive. Certainly hope the defenses are enough to ward off any attack but technologies are being developed that will most definitely will endanger even the most defended carrier. This goes for allies & enemies.

    • @1mol831
      @1mol831 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is not about carriers being massive target, they are just white elephants. How often would you get to use one? Some carriers are build without use its entire service lie.

    • @eannamcnamara9338
      @eannamcnamara9338 ปีที่แล้ว

      Carriers are always escorted by a handful of destroyers equipped with anti missile and anti submarine systems and the carrier also comes with its own anti-missile systems and anti sub system. Hypersonic missiles and ballistic missiles are the only threat, and both have very prescribable terminal approach phases that make them easy targets.
      Unless we get a technology as revolutionary as the carrier was to the battleship, I doubt they will ever fall out of favor.

    Simply put... Can the aircraft carrier stop 1,200 missiles? If not, then it's no longer cost effective.

    • @ChristopherB.
      @ChristopherB. ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmm. yeah. Same could be said about any ship. Can an Arleigh Burke destroyer stop 1,200 missiles? Probably not. Yet the navy has funded the construction of more of them, because the current doctrine requires them. Can the Freedom-class Litoral combat ship stop 1,200 missiles? probably not.
      1,200 missiles is an insane number that no ship could stop in a short period of time.
      Something is also to be said about the time period. In just 3 hours? no. In several weeks? probably. Over the course of months? Absolutely.

    And then there was those three aircraft carriers that didn't have a runway, they just slapped a clothesline off the side of it, bolted a clothes hanger on the aircraft, and flew planes on and off of it.
    Edit: the Brodie landing system, for anyone who wants to look it up.
