Submarines and missiles exist, friend.
Also don't they use that just for training?
Benjamin Wood
Nice floating tin can. Would be a shame if someone sank it...
Landon Morales
why does it have a japanese flag

>literally an 80s Russian crapbucket dragged out of retirement
bet you could sneeze at the cunt and it'd fall apart

japan #1 as always

Probably some rusting shit Russia sold to Beijing in the 90s when they were desperate for money. Either that or it's a Chinese knockoff of a 1970s Soviet ship design.
Jace Evans
It was a Kuz-class ship that didn't finish construction due to the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Russians sold it to China since they didn't have the money to finish it.

>ladyboy bows down to chinese masters
>probably chinese anyways
why do this? pick up whatever pride you have left or go back to china.
Nicholas Gomez
That's a lovely ramp and all but why only one tower? Everyone knows twin islands are the future.
Wyatt Ross
CHINA PLEASE ANNEX US

It's a white sexpat in Thailand. He's a notorious spammer here.

If the western states didn't go around bombing tiny unstable countries, that's all they'd use them for too.
Nicholas Smith
Aaron Evans
Sorry only countries whose carriers have a displacement of over 50,000t can post in here.
Jacob Brooks
only careers with ramps are mockable tho
Luke Rogers
I don't think US and friends will go bombing unstable cunts in SEA so soon. I mean China just created a "Petroyuan" to compete witht he Petrodolar and so far we heard no action from US side. When Libya and Iraq tried they were bombed and has their govt toppled within a week.
Jaxson Hall
The same way our carriers are used for training during peace time
Justin Jackson
Ramps are the future.
Parker Reed
Well unlike Russia’s rusting sandbucket, China’s carrier actually has been sailing all over Asia and not breaking down.
Remember that crazy smoke cloud you could see from space? China uses a normal diesel engine instead.
They also haven’t lost a dozen planes and are not half-reliant on a tug boat.
Robert Clark
Charles de Gaulle is TINY, and it's in dry dock for over a year servicing its reactor once again. Downside to only have one carrier too.
Logan Morales
You ur Navy has like 11? They can easily use one or two to bomb [insert random sand shithole] and use the rest for training personell and other to maintenance. China has only 1 and building another 2 which will be used for their oversea operations.
Jonathan Walker
>build boats that big and still need a ramp
lol, are your jets powered by soy ?
Gabriel Adams
Russia only keeps the Kuz for the prestige of owning a carrier. They had to move the air wing to land halfway through it's first fucking operational deployment last year because planes kept going into the water.
Brayden Gonzalez
Its tugboat is much more important than the carrier itself.
Nathaniel Brooks
>calls itself a "helicopter carrier"
>pretends that it can't launch jets just as easily
This is just the Japanese way. A hallmark of why Japanese are often described as 'inscrutable' in US media. Not just politicians, businessmen, or diplomats; even baseball players are described as 'inscrutable'.
Austin Phillips
For a few seconds i thought they made a "THX IOWA" on the Izumo deck, lol.
Angel Young
It really can't, iirc F-35s need special decks to handle the temperature of the exhaust when they do VTOL
Additionally VTOL greatly limits load capacity

t. butthurt anglo jelly at not having a NUCLEAR carrier
have fun with your weak soycarrier with conventional propulsion!
Jordan Rivera
Logan Diaz
Because there is no catapult in this aircraft carrier.
Leo Rogers
with VTOL, catapults aren't necessary.
Luke Morgan

Evan Kelly
This blocks the wh*tes
Ayden Wright
>his ships can't run without refueling for literally decades
LMAO
Josiah Diaz
They’d need to widen the hangar, the elevators, replace the deck, and VTOL makes the F-35B lose about half its payload and distance.
Extremely unlikely to happen.
Alexander Garcia
>his ships can't be easily retired as man-made reef
laughing at your life diesellet
Jackson Cook
You're aware that they still need to stop for maintenance and resupply, right?
Camden Rivera
>carriers
>anything but useless, big fat targets
lol
Charles Gray
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Christian Harris
carriers are basically meaningless until anti-missle technology improves. Also anti-air lasers and railguns make airplanes kill
Brayden Ross
How many french men does it take to defend paris?
Nobody knows because it's never been done
Why are the streets of paris lined with trees?
So ze germans can walk in the shade.

WHOA what have you been feeding her Japan shes huge
Daniel Brown
For training and know-how, more like.
Maybe Russia can't afford carriers, but it wants to be able to make some money selling navalized jets to countries like India and maybe China
