Re: Wow! ....China‘s new aircraft carrier ..
Carrier's are not obsolete. They operate under the protective shield of other ships, missiles, guns & aircraft that are both above and below the surface. If it was so easy to sink a carrier, we would have lost one in recent history. But the fact is we haven't lost one in combat since ww2.
 Quoting: Squatch Hunter


That's cause none have ever been targeted by missiles like the Sunburn or Moskit.

There have been plenty of tests done with these missiles, all indications are that if they are launched towards your ship, you are as good as fucked. By the time you detect them incoming it is too late to do anything to stop them. They are just too fast, and more recent missiles combine that speed with high tech maneuver technology making them impossible to shoot down.

Falkland War was very revealing. Even less advanced and slower missiles pose great danger to ships in spite of all their so-called protections, they are all just sitting ducks ripe for turning into death traps for all aboard them.

The US Navy is well aware of this and is very careful to keep them well out of range of these missiles when possible, only the oldest and least modern carriers are sent into the Persian Gulf and it is assumed they will be destroyed if war with Iran ever breaks out while they are there. They are currently not in the Persian Gulf at all according to this recent report:

Budget problems? lol. no, the real reasons are they do not want those carriers any where near those moskit and sunburns as sabre rattling in the region ramps up.

Very True. On the other hand, those missiles have a very defined weakness in terms of distance. I believe its around 100 miles. Our carriers could easily patrol much further out and launch fighters and bombers from a distance. Also, our air refueling capabilities are 2nd to none. So, when one considers basic tactics and throws that into the mix, those missiles lose their effectiveness in modern warfare. Now, submarine launched warfare against the same missiles is a whole other story. I don't think Iran has anything beyond Diesel Electric subs as launch platforms but a country like Russia could be very deadly with those weapons and those capabilities.

You guys are retards just look at the US nation debt clock.
You think they owe that much money and don't have better shit?

The US is there and has been forever not to mention all the tech they got from aliens. China fuck there little boat the US has subs bigger than that the carry jets. jets are obsolete anyways they have ah never mind.

Bullshit!!! They spend all that money for corruption and filling elite's pockets with more money. Toilet seat for 5000$ and stuff... What fucking alien tech and teleportation, wake up...
 Quoting: tommar


You think they are gunna pay that back? Not a chance how can they? So they will war before paying that shit off. They been getting ready for years. And as far as alien tech yer just a dumb human. Thats why they hide in obscurity is from dumb humans like yourself!
 Quoting: The La La 2312456


Yeah right, they got starship Enterprize in the orbit waiting for war. That's why they are spending trilions for developing f-22 & a major failure f-35. And I'm dumb.

While claiming that the missile has the capability to hit aircraft carriers 2,000 kilometers away, the nationalistic Chinese tabloid Global Times stated that the weapon was only designed for self-defense; the DF-21D will never pose a serious threat to US national security because it is not even able to reach Hawaii, the newspaper said, though fully aware of the US naval deployment in the Western Pacific.

Carriers are just as vulnerable now as they were in the past. It's a matter of numbers.

The US navy decided long ago that that configuration wasn't suited for heavy ships. The kind of manouvers that war ships have to make puts extreme stress on such hulls. Rough seas do the same. Better for corvette type ships.

They are not building that thing, it's a concept/study, nothing more. The pictures you posted are from July 2011.

^this.

anyone can make a digital image of a super awesome epic antiamerica ship that owns the entire USN in one ultramegasuperduper attack.

as another poster said, come back when it has completed sea trials.
