Saipan-class aircraft carrier
The Saipan-class light aircraft carrier was a light aircraft carrier modified from the Baltima-class heavy cruiser by the US Navy during World War II. It was registered in September 1943 and built after the war. Its appearance was similar to an independent class, but it had a larger displacement, close to the Assault. The aircraft carrier was 209 meters long, 35.1 meters wide at its widest point, 7.6 meters deep at draft, 14,500 tons of displacement at full load, 33 knots at maximum speed, and 8000 nautical miles per 15 knots in endurance. It could carry 50 carrier-based aircraft and had a total of 1821 personnel. It was once used as an aircraft transport ship, and later transformed into a command ship. The USS Saipan (LVL- 48) was a Saipan-class aircraft carrier that entered service in 1946. Due to its combat use being much lower than the Midway-class aircraft carrier, it was modified into the USS Arington (AGMR - 2) in 1965 and retired in 1977. The ship was equipped with military equipment, including 42× 40mm Bofors cannons and 16× twin-mounted 20mm anti-aircraft guns. The aircraft on the ship included 18 fighter jets, 12 dive bomber planes, and 12 Torpedo Bombers. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Dignity class aircraft carrier
The Majestic class Aircraft carrier had the same main dimensions and main engine as the Giant class, but the displacement was increased, and the number of aircraft and cannons were changed. In order to adapt to the increase in the weight of the aircraft, the six unfinished ships in the Giant class construction plan strengthened the aviation outfitting and flight deck, increasing the aircraft's operating capacity from 6.7 tons to 9.1 tons. At the same time, they improved the air defense weapons and radar equipment, thus they were called the Dignity class. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.

Centaur-class aircraft carrier
In the game " Azure Sea Route," there was a ship maiden based on a Centaur class aircraft carrier. The Centaur was the Royal Faction's super rare class light ship lady. Its prototype was the British Navy's Centaur-class aircraft carrier No. 1. The way to obtain it was to log into the characteristic pool during the grass growth period of the national server. She also launched a cool spring breeze Ver. figurine, made by the Japanese model manufacturer Flare. The official release date was June 2023. The full height was about 26 centimeters, and it appeared in the image of a Chinese style blue cheongsam. It was designed by the famous artist, Teacher Tony. In the figurine, her long golden hair danced behind her, and her round eyes had green pupils. The two folding fans in her hands and the sailing route around her arms were made of translucent parts.

British Dignity class aircraft carrier
The British Dignity class aircraft carrier was originally planned to be built as part of the 16 Colossuses that were urgently built during World War II. Six of them took into account that the weight of the new carrier aircraft would increase, and strengthened the aviation equipment and flight deck, increasing the aircraft's operating capacity from 6.7 tons to 9.1 tons. At the same time, air defense weapons and radar equipment were improved, thus becoming another level of aircraft carrier. Its standard displacement was 14224 tons, with a total length of 211.8 meters, a width of 24.4 meters, and a draft of 7.0 meters. The main engine was two Parsons type all-gear drive steam turbines with two axes. The main boiler was four navy Yu three-body water tube boiler (specialized in burning heavy oil). The output power was 40000 horsepower, the speed was 25 knots, the fuel carrying capacity was 3000 tons of heavy oil, 341 tons of aviation fuel, and the endurance was 12000 nautical miles/14 knots. Weapons and equipment included six two-pound four-mounted cannons, 19 40mm single-mounted cannons, 37 aircraft carriers, a flight deck of 213.6 meters x 24.4 meters, no defense facilities, and a crew of 1100 (including aviation personnel). Due to the end of World War II during the construction process, the ships of this class became redundant before the completion of the project. One ship was suspended, and the five completed ships were all rented or sold to foreign countries. None of them served as British aircraft carriers. For example, India's Vikrant aircraft carrier, formerly known as the fifth Hercules of the Dignity class aircraft carrier, started construction in 1944 and was interrupted at the end of World War II. After it was purchased by India in 1957, it was restarted and modernised. In 1961, it was completed and delivered to the Indian Navy. China's introduction of the "Melbourne" was originally a British "Dignity" class aircraft carrier. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.

aircraft carrier aircraft medal
There were many aircraft carrier-related medals. For example,"The Complete Set of China's Aircraft Carrier Commemorative Medallions" was released in 2011. It was produced by the Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Museum. It was made of 2kg of 999 pure gold and silver. It used more than 100 processes such as mirror embossed, floral inlaying, and exquisite polishing. It included a total of 12 warships of New China, including aircraft carriers. It could be called a museum of naval vessels of New China. There was also a custom-made medal to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the first flight of the "Falcon Eagle". The "Falcon Eagle" fighter was the "official" fighter jet of China's first catapult aircraft carrier, the J- 35 stealth carrier fighter. In addition, the national defense lottery set up awards, including the fourth, fifth, and sixth prizes for different materials (gold-plated, silver-plated, copper-plated) national defense military (lottery) contribution medals.

Landing of the aircraft carrier
Carrier Landing HD was a flight simulation game where players could pilot various types of aircraft to land and take off on an aircraft carrier. The game provided multiple challenge modes and levels, and each level had different weather conditions and difficulty. Players needed to accurately control the angle and speed of descent of the aircraft according to the position and speed of the aircraft carrier in order to safely land on the deck of the aircraft carrier. In addition, the game also included tests on flight operations such as aerial refuelling, emergency landing, and aerial stunts. The aircraft carrier landing HD was available for download on both the Android and Apple versions. It could be downloaded for free on the relevant software platforms.
Russian aircraft carrier
Russia's Kuznetsov aircraft carrier began to return to the factory for major repairs and upgrades in 2017. According to the plan, if everything went well, the aircraft carrier would complete the major repairs and return to the fleet in 2025, thus ending the vacuum period of the Russian Navy's aircraft carrier. However, Russia currently did not have stealth carrier-based fighters. After the elimination of the Su- 33 fighter jet, Kuznetsov could only carry MiG-29K carrier-based fighters, and it adopted the gliding take-off mode. Its overall combat effectiveness was lower than that of the Liaoning-type aircraft carrier, and there was a big gap between it and the new China-US aircraft carrier. In addition, although Russia announced that it would build about 320 modern warships around 2025, including six aircraft carriers, there were many serious problems in Russia's shipbuilding management, supply chain, industrial workers, capital, technology, and infrastructure. There were many challenges to achieve this goal. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Kuznetsov aircraft carrier
Kuznetsov was a Type 1143.5 aircraft carrier cruiser No. 1, serial number No. 38. It was an aircraft carrier, and its rarity was elite (2 stars/5 stars). It belonged to the Northern Federation. The construction time was 7 hours and 30 minutes. In terms of firepower, it was equipped with 12 P - 700 granite anti-ship missiles, 192 SA-N- 9 anti-aircraft missiles, 256 SA-N-11s, and 18 six-barrel 30mm rapid-fire guns. Each of the four corners had six sets of 8-unit SA-N- 9 anti-aircraft missiles. The second layer of the four-corner weapon platform of the hull was equipped with two sets of millet tree artillery close-in defense systems. In terms of aviation capabilities, the current ship B had an aviation value of 64 and a loading value of 6. It could carry Su-33T1, MiG-29KT1 and other carrier-based aircraft. It had skills such as "Deep Sea Assault-Codename Blue Flame"(can release three specially strengthened fighter jets to attack the sea),"Silver Air Assault-Codename Gray Sand"(release a specially strengthened fighter jet for air combat at a time). From the perspective of its development history, it was the result of the development of the third generation of the Soviet aircraft carrier. The Soviet Navy had developed a total of four generations of aircraft carriers, and it belonged to two Kuznetsov-class aircraft carriers. It was the representative of the Soviet aircraft cruiser. There were many political and other reasons why the Soviet Union called it a carrier cruiser instead of an aircraft carrier. After six years of major repairs, the ship began its sea trials in 2024. Although it was the last glory of the Russian Navy and the former Soviet Navy and the only aircraft carrier in service, its equipment was relatively backward and could be used as a training ship. In 2024, there was also an incident where the Anglo-Russian agents tried to blow up the ship. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
British aircraft carrier
French aircraft carrier
Fang Bing was a military instructor at the National Defense University. As for the French aircraft carrier, the Charles de Gaulle was France's first and only next-powered aircraft carrier in service. Construction started in 1989 and was put into service in 2001. The standard displacement was 35000 tons, with a full load of 42500 tons. The flight deck area was 12000 square meters, and the hangar area was 4600 square meters. The power plant was the same K - 15 nuclear reactor as the Triumph-class ballistic missile submarine. The power was seriously insufficient. The total output was only 76,200 horsepower and the speed was only 25 knots. Most of its key weapons were self-developed and produced, except for the catapult, which was made in the United States. Normally, it could accommodate 24 M-type aircraft such as the Rafale Fighter, and could accommodate up to 40 aircraft. Defensive weapons included four eight-unit Purple Air Defense Missiles. Its construction was expensive and its performance was average. The lack of power caused its speed to be slow and its maneuverability to be poor. It was estimated that it would be difficult to build the second ship, the Lisailu. At present, an aircraft carrier strike group with the Charles de Gaulle as the core set sail from the French port of Toulon to the Asia-Pacific region to carry out missions, but there was no direct evaluation of the French aircraft carrier by the soldiers.

35,000-ton aircraft carrier
The 35,000-ton aircraft carrier currently mentioned was the French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle. The Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier had a standard displacement of 35,000 tons and a full-load displacement of 42,000 tons. It was commissioned in 2001, with a length of 261.5 meters and a width of 64.36 meters. It was a nuclear aircraft carrier and the absolute main force of the French Navy. It could carry 20 Rafale-M carrier-based fighters, two E - 2C carrier-based early warning aircraft, and two Dolphin anti-submarine helicopters. The maximum carrying capacity of the carrier-based aircraft was 45. The construction process went through a lot of ups and downs. It started in the late 1980s and was originally planned to enter service in 1996. However, due to the serious financial difficulties of the French Navy, the aircraft carrier was launched in May 1994 and entered service in 2001. The construction cost was higher than the 100,000-ton Nimitz class in the United States. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
