>Longer than the Houses of Parliament and able to launch up to 108 air strike sorties per day, Britain’s new aircraft carriers will make potential enemies “think twice” about starting future wars, their senior naval officer has said.
>less than half the air complement of a 40yo Nimitz
>only two built, allowing for only one at sea per standard rotation
>A FUCKING RAMP
>make enemies think twice
Yeah I'm sure the Russians and Chinese are shaking in their commie boots.

Here we go again
Haha fuck Britain right?
Well it's not like any potential enemy isn't going to consider a capability increase when planning operations. We do.
I don't get what the big deal about that is.
Didn't I just see this thread?

I did!
Still enough to skullfuck Argentina.

Honest to god, fuck the writer for creating such a cringeworthy headline.
>Not nuclear
>Ramp
>Relying on the questionable F-35 or dusting off harriers
>Only two
What's the fucking point?
Who cares?
America's gonna fight the wars anyway. Its their blood that:s gonna spill. Why make something that wont be used that much?

>Diesel-powered skateboard ramp
And I thought the f-35 was bad.
>>30014162
You mean the Russian and Chinese carriers of lower tonnage that also exclusively use ramps, with lower availability to the point their CSG includes two tugs?

Even if they had a fucking Star Destroyer in orbit to bombard enemy countries, it wouldn't help them. All the military assets in the world can't help you when the enemy is already in your country and protected by your laws.

>muh one at sea
Maybe in peace time. Last time countries were in a serious naval war, no one put only 50% or 1/3 of its boats to action.
