"You call that a ramp? This is a ramp!"

why does that boat look like its going to fall over?

A carrier with a ramp is better than no carriers at all. Imagine being a rich western liberal democracy in 2018 and not having an aircraft carrier lmao.

True they are mainly for ego at this point.

Yes! They mock us now, but they will learn what true pain is.

Don't you mean destroyers are obsolete? Because there isn't really a way to get 300 jets into the air without aerial refueling.

We also have sub killers and sub jammers, and plenty of our own subs.

I still dont fucking understand why the western powers need military force when all our cities are becoming absolute shitholes

A Commonwealth nation buying spanish warships.

Poetry.

Damn that tower is THICC

To keep the balance of power. Without it we would have a one world government, which would be very Orwellian.

To protect brown people from racists.

What would the reason be for modern navies not to use catapults then?
It could be for reconnaissance

it's not a ramp
it's a TRamp

Ha, how.dare you insult our mighty military you filthy yank!

Catapults are mechanically complex, requiring intensive maintenance. They're also more expensive to build in the first place.

If you're a smaller navy that doesn't need to launch heavier conventional-takeoff planes from their ships, jump ramps work just fine.

Settling for a ramp says a lot about your country. No wonder ibis birds constantly disrespect you.

Thats a bd5, I want one so bad

No, I mean air craft carriers. MAD is no longer a reality. If we wanted to we could exterminate the Russian and Chinese militaries and there entire civilizations in under fifteen minutes and there's not a goddamn thing they could about it.

Why are they obsolete? Because we can nuke them?

We cannot nuke Iran, Syria, or Niger it is usually a last resort.

We only really need aircraft carriers for initial strikes, after that we can establish bases.

No... we are.

Why does the US have so many carriers? Are they really necessary? Seems like a waste of money.

Carriers are a meme in the world of AShM

In rough seas, a catapult at the wrong moment will launch the plane straight into the sea.
Ramps always point up.

Ours is a LHD anyway. Ramp is just cos its some old spanish shit on the cheap.

you can't contain the australian dirtbiker urge.

We could wipe out every one of our enemies out of existence with minimal fallout using our current Nuke Boat armada and establish a thousand year empire on the ashes of their worthless civilizations.

Should of used a magnetic sling shot instead of a shitty ramp.

it is a bad thing and your ships are pathetic

>rampcuck cope

Modern supercarriers break the #1 rule of hardware in war: don’t build anything you can’t afford to lose.

The size and scope of modern aircraft carriers is absolutely absurd, and the Chinese and Russians know it which is why they focus so much on anti ship missiles.
All it would take it for one single lucky gunboat to get close enough to fire off one lucky missile that hit just the wrong spot and you’d have a bigger disaster than pearl harbour.

Those suck even more cock than the steam ones, which are excellent.

I hate the Juan Carlos design as anybody else with a minimum aesthetic taste. However Australia has a thing called "Indonesia" pressing against itself. Indonesia is that funny muslim country that has been genociding Newguineans and that has been persecuting Christians since ever.

Australians better boost their armed forces and the same goes for the NZ. The world is going in pieces under our own eyes and the stability that we have seen in the past decades is not gonna last forever.

You guys should seriously start stockpiling weapons

USA has been the only real world power since the death of USSR, their armed forces are made to be projected outside the continent and reach every corner of the globe in weeks or days.

A FUCKING RAMP

>USA has been the only real world power since the death of USSR, their armed forces are made to be projected outside the continent and reach every corner of the globe in weeks or days.
precisely for this reason it is important that they does not fall into the hands of the liberals, and inevitably later in islamic hands

They will fall into liberals, it is inevitable. I doubt that muslims will ever be a big thing in US given the fact that liberals have a stockpile of brown Mexicans to saitsfy their appetites.
The best scenario is a scenario in which U.S as we know it dies, creating a vacum and instability.

Australia is the only nation worthy of the title of "greatest ally"

oh nothing, just securing all the seas on the panet ever since Bretton Woods so all us tiny individual countries don't need to worry about building up an empire with fleets for trade route protection like we used to
nothing much really

takes flying "into the wind" in a whole new direction.

Hypersonic missiles are the real aircraft carrier killer.

We made that ramp, we could put four times the armament but you said that couldn't float :^]

Nobody can use a nuclear bomb. You can still use a navy.

Yes, but 3rd world countries don't have navies to defend themselves.

Eg. Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, etc.

Westerners aren't in power. Our nations have been subverted by Jews.

Holy fuck, look at how far out of the water that thing is, and with huge flat sides.
Why don't they just paint a bull's eye on it

None as long as you keep making them with CGI.

It's a vehicle transporter, that's why it's so tall.

it depends what war youre waging
an actual global war? subs trump carriers
but we use them very effectively in our imperial campaigns. if an american carrier flert shows up in Saudi waters, we own the waters

Yeah, you show those emus who's the boss!

now this is podracing

wonder if we could train eagles to swoop up nigglets and drop them in a lake?

That's so fucked, i thought it was debris dropping in the water but the explosion was so hot it boiled the ocean

>What would the reason be for modern navies not to use catapults then?
Power needed for the cata, unless you have a lot of carriers, nuclear engine is not really an option considering their downtime for maintenance

That's why carries always have thirty other ships with them. Subs can't get close.
