@Andi-f2c Well your assertion has not been tested in actual war. Russia was deemed a super power but is bigged down in Ukraine, and Ukraine has struck Russian ammunition depots deep in Russia. Therefore, all assumptions about what are "peer" adversaries can do are to me I will believe it when I see it. OUR AIRCRAFT CARRIERS have entire naval battle groups protecting them to include attack submarines. The aircraft carrier battle group us now equipped with directed energy weapons and other weapons kept secret. People accuse me of being stupid because I do not buy communist propaganda. I do know that peace comes from strength, NOT weakness.

Definitely! While some might see it as posturing, it's undeniable that the US is flexing its military muscle. Testing their advanced carrier sends a clear message of their capabilities and determination to maintain naval dominance, especially in light of China's growing fleet.
Just like the beloved battleships....the days of carriers are numbered. Building them bigger and bigger is not the future. But we keep repeating the same mistakes of the past. Now, there are drones, un- maned systems, lasers, pulse guns, and bombs....that can take out a carrier with 1 hit. The cost of making them and the cost of ownership is huge. Many now sit in drydocks for years, awaiting funding, upgrades, and repairs. Bigger is not better. Think....future and learn from the past mistakes. (Navy vet....subs, amphious, and destroyers.)
They are not built bigger for looks. They are bigger so as to store more craft and enable more to get into the air. Drones will not dominate naval warfare.
you have no idea what you are talking about! As you do know things better than all, tell me how you would fight your drone war 15000 miles away from homeland; I really love your idea of drones which can operate around the world without any base… btw, try to take out a carrier „with one hit“ - have you EVER informed yourself about the defense capabilities of an ACG? Not one single hit will reach a carrier, and it would take many hits to „take out a carrier“… rarely heard so much nonsense

Fear through strength is oppression. There will be resistance from resentment and no peace after all. It has taken too long for America to understand this.
The super carriers are vulnerable to massive drone or missile swarms and therefore must keep a very long distance from its enemy target. This is why I advocate for about 25-50 small escort carriers that are easier, quicker, and cheaper to build than a super carrier which can take almost a decade to build and insanely expensive. The smaller escort carriers won’t have complex catapult systems but can be well suited for vertical takeoff craft such as the very capable F-35B. If you have a lot more smaller escort carriers you can lose a few and it won’t be a disaster like if you lose a super carrier. Therefore small escort carriers can risk getting closer to enemy targets. I’m not saying get rid of the super carriers because they serve important functions such as reconnaissance and refueling aircraft that small escort carriers couldn’t launch. But, having a lot of small escort carriers that can launch F-35Bs mitigates the risks and vulnerabilities and enhances firepower effectiveness. It was the small escort carriers in 1944 that saved the battle of Leyte Gulf from being a disaster for the US navy.
The new laser defense systems they are rolling out can quickly and inexpensively neautralize any threats from drones. As for missiles, it would difficult to hit a moving target that is enveloped by the carrier's strike team.
You know, we have an immigration problemand we need help in the shipyards. There's a lot of jobs there if somebody's looking the other thing is I wouldn't decommission some of these older aircraft carriers right now. I know it takes a long time to refurbish. These things, but it takes even longer to build them. They could have a use. Just set it up for like 15 years and don't need to do a major overhaul. Set it up for drones and missiles.

We could have both but insurance companies have bought all of our politicians. Americans pay the most in tax dollars to Healthcare, more than any other nation. Americans also pay the most in private/personal dollars, more than any other nation.
Ah, I think taxpayers in the US are more concerned about how they're going to be able to afford their health bills if they ever become ill. Most US citizens don't even know what countries make up NATO or even what it stands for! What is a US carrier use say in Afghanistan or even the Ukraine as they won't enter The Black Sea in case it upsets Putin. Most of the time there are more carriers that are tied up in their naval bases because it would cost an absolute fortune to have them all on the go because there's no major conflicts that they are required to be involved in. I think most US citizens believe that these behemoths are on the go 24 hrs, 365 days a year which isn't the case at all.

@@aaronkristo858 : Dominate what? They lost in Vietnam, iraq, Syria. Their economy is screwed. Most countries have nuclear weapons. Difficult to guess who wins wars
@@JSP1234-m6g Vietnam had almost 20 times as many casualties as the United States and 3 times as many casualties as the entire South Korean alliance. The United States never lost a battle in Vietnam. The American public got impatient, but the United States military learned many valuable lessons from that war. The United States lost the war in Iraq? Ask Saddam Hussein who won. The United States lost in Syria? Ask Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi and Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini al-Qurashi who won. ISIS has had almost 10,000 fighters killed there. The United States has had 11. The United States holds 30.8% of the world's wealth, which is more than any other country on earth. China is second with 18.6%. The economy in America is doing fine. There are 195 countries in the world. 9 of them have nuclear weapons and you think that qualifies as "most" countries? Math is clearly not your strong suit.
@@aaronkristo858 : The measurement of success in a war is not the number of dead. Foolish argument. killing Saddam is not considered winning. US wanted to put democracy there. Nothing happened. Iraq without Saddam is not better anyway. Look at Afghanistan. Americans left Afghanistan after giving the country back to Taliban again. It was such a waste of time and money trying to fight the Taliban. Americans get into battle without any proper plan because most American presidents are below average idiots with a bunch of idiotic advisors who don't know the difference between Iran and Iraq. USA has created more terrorists in the middle East bcoz of their screw-up policies. The only war America won was WW II because of the major support from USSR. Try to learn world history instead of just sticking on to local news. Trump is popular bcoz he doesn't like war.
@@aaronkristo858 : The measure of success in war is not the number of dead. By killing Saddam you only created more Al-Qaeda. Even George bush feels he did not win in Iraq. Only people like you think otherwise. Americans achieved nothing in that war or any other war since WWII. What happened in Afghanistan? They had to give it back to Taliban after sacrificing thousands of American lives. It's better for American presidents to concentrate on internal matters and MAGA. Most of you guys are born and die in the USA. Try to travel around the world and see what real world looks like.
Does this mean the US Navy finally figured out how to defend its carriers from the Swedish Gotland class of submarines? After trying for a year, when Gotland managed to pass all the defence systems of the mighty CVN-76 with all supply ships, launch torpedoes (well, not really, but take photos proving that they could have) and escape undetected. Then, the US Navy asked to lease the Gotland for another year, but Gotland could still easily have sunk poor old CVN-76 Ronald Reagan and escape undetected at will. So, have they finally found out? After all, they didn't invite HSwMS Gotland to participate in the tests. Go figure... All the fantastic multi-billion dollar types of equipment above deck mean nothing when half a dozen torpedoes from a $100M sub are coming.
Aircraft carriers allow the United States to maintain a floating air base anywhere in the world. They can support enough jets to overwhelm most countries' entire air forces. It is still very much a game changer.
FLOATING TRAILORPARKS had their day. They just DRUNK on the FALSE HOPES and Urban Legends of the light weight fighter Mafia. Who believed there wasn't a need for a Long Range AAM and Heavyweight Air Dominance Fighter for MULTIDOMAIN Maritime combat.
@@aaronkristo858I will TOLERATE, yoir IGNORANCE. Simply because you aren't cognizant of carrier Liability. Aircraft attrition, Lack of Land Based Tanker Support.
@@HENRISTARKS What liability? What country other than maybe two could threaten "aircraft attrition"? And what "land based tanker support" does a nuclear powered aircraft carrier require?
Ultimately, the question is whether the PLA Navy has the ability (ie a missile) that can disable or sink a carrier. If they have such a thing, then this is just a colossal waste of money and time. But, if the carrier has missile defense systems that are sufficient to protect it, then the carrier resumes its role as a powerful projection of power. Keep in mind that we use these in peacetime to keep trillion dollar trade route open and free from piracy, to render humanitarian aid, and disaster relief, as well as to project soft power to aid in diplomatic negotiations. These floating cities aren't just platforms for war. Though that is their primary function by design, in practice, having such a thing is often the key to preventing having to fight a war in the first place. Bravo to the sailors and Navy aviators who operate these floating cities and keep the world safe and stable.
Curious to hear how those Chinese missiles that go into low Earth orbit and return at mach 10 can be stopped before hitting one of these new carriers!??
You might not like it, but it's been a fact since December 2024 that the days of the power-projecting aircraft carrier are over. One Oreshnik missile at Mach 10 is totally unstoppable apparently. Think about it.

Wonderful video!!
Whenever there is a conflict anywhere in the world, the sitting President of the United States first question is "Where are my carriers"?
In this nuclear age you don't need such massive ships to win wars.
The United States has plenty of those as well. It's power will dominate in any arena.
@@aaronkristo858 : Dominate what? They lost in Vietnam, iraq, Syria. Their economy is screwed. Most countries have nuclear weapons. Difficult to guess who wins wars
@@JSP1234-m6g Vietnam had almost 20 times as many casualties as the United States and 3 times as many casualties as the entire South Korean alliance. The United States never lost a battle in Vietnam. The American public got impatient, but the United States military learned many valuable lessons from that war.
The United States lost the war in Iraq? Ask Saddam Hussein who won.
The United States lost in Syria? Ask Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi and Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini al-Qurashi who won. ISIS has had almost 10,000 fighters killed there. The United States has had 11.
The United States holds 30.8% of the world's wealth, which is more than any other country on earth. China is second with 18.6%. The economy in America is doing fine.
There are 195 countries in the world. 9 of them have nuclear weapons and you think that qualifies as "most" countries? Math is clearly not your strong suit.
@@aaronkristo858 : The measurement of success in a war is not the number of dead. Foolish argument. killing Saddam is not considered winning. US wanted to put democracy there. Nothing happened. Iraq without Saddam is not better anyway. Look at Afghanistan. Americans left Afghanistan after giving the country back to Taliban again. It was such a waste of time and money trying to fight the Taliban. Americans get into battle without any proper plan because most American presidents are below average idiots with a bunch of idiotic advisors who don't know the difference between Iran and Iraq. USA has created more terrorists in the middle East bcoz of their screw-up policies. The only war America won was WW II because of the major support from USSR. Try to learn world history instead of just sticking on to local news. Trump is popular bcoz he doesn't like war.
@@aaronkristo858 : The measure of success in war is not the number of dead. By killing Saddam you only created more Al-Qaeda. Even George bush feels he did not win in Iraq. Only people like you think otherwise. Americans achieved nothing in that war or any other war since WWII. What happened in Afghanistan? They had to give it back to Taliban after sacrificing thousands of American lives. It's better for American presidents to concentrate on internal matters and MAGA. Most of you guys are born and die in the USA. Try to travel around the world and see what real world looks like.
Does this mean the US Navy finally figured out how to defend its carriers from the Swedish Gotland class of submarines?
After trying for a year, when Gotland managed to pass all the defence systems of the mighty CVN-76 with all supply ships, launch torpedoes (well, not really, but take photos proving that they could have) and escape undetected.
Then, the US Navy asked to lease the Gotland for another year, but Gotland could still easily have sunk poor old CVN-76 Ronald Reagan and escape undetected at will.
So, have they finally found out? After all, they didn't invite HSwMS Gotland to participate in the tests. Go figure...
All the fantastic multi-billion dollar types of equipment above deck mean nothing when half a dozen torpedoes from a $100M sub are coming.
Where did you get that information from?
If so, then they are not going to talk about it that's for sure.
@@bass305-HCCA It's all over the internet, even here on RUclips. Just search for "how a Swedish sub defeated the US Navy".
@@user-fr3vo4hl2d They had to. The Swedish Navy had no reason to keep it a secret. DUH!
@@bass305-HCCA It's all over the internet, even here on RUclips. Just search for "how a Swedish sub defeated the US Navy".
What if China sends 5000 drones with 2 small missles each to take it out. Is this aircraft carrier equipped to deal with it?
All they need is one Russian Oreshnik.
Keep building them.
"Peace through Ultimate Power"! Go US Navy! 💪💪💪
Destruction through infinite debt. You people are crazy!
Star Base.. Gerald R. Ford, that is one beautiful ship.
GO 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
One Hypersonic missile: Goodbye Carrier.
$90000 bag of bushing manufacturer is happy to see the carrier on duty! More pls!
❤wow so wonderful😊idol💖💜💛🌹🤩🔥
God bless America. 🇺🇸
Is it worth the price? Definitely YES.
What is the Ford defences
The most important staff on a carrier? Those that make the meals. Hope they’re tasty for everybody. Really. Keeps spirits up!
Now they just gotta add 4 air propulsion propellers... some active cloaking technology, and a giant land based hangar :>
The air craft carrier has already gone the way of the cavalry charge at this point. The air craft carrier just doesn't know it yet.
Aircraft carriers allow the United States to maintain a floating air base anywhere in the world. They can support enough jets to overwhelm most countries' entire air forces. It is still very much a game changer.
FLOATING TRAILORPARKS had their day. They just DRUNK on the FALSE HOPES and Urban Legends of the light weight fighter Mafia. Who believed there wasn't a need for a Long Range AAM and Heavyweight Air Dominance Fighter for MULTIDOMAIN Maritime combat.
@@aaronkristo858I will TOLERATE, yoir IGNORANCE. Simply because you aren't cognizant of carrier Liability. Aircraft attrition, Lack of Land Based Tanker Support.
@@HENRISTARKS What liability? What country other than maybe two could threaten "aircraft attrition"? And what "land based tanker support" does a nuclear powered aircraft carrier require?
@@aaronkristo858 Was, until Oreshnik.
History shows the largest does not always wins the battle nor the war.
YAMATO ring a bell?
@@DonAbrams-hq7ln and Mushashi too, at the time they were deployed I think they were already outdated, but their specs were facinating...
I was thinking same thing,big ship and went to bottom
@@DonAbrams-hq7ln
This is not a battleship it is a floating runway and missile launcher. That is what wins wars. I can't believe people can even confuse the two.
@@digitaldirt7773 bigger ship bigger target, just saying.
Laser is faster than missile, that's what we need to work on put them on our ships, and on our planes.
The US needs about a thousand carriers twice the size of Gerald Ford
DF51 mach 30 missiles easily turn aircraft carriers into scrap metals
Amazing 🤩
More aircraft carriers, more supercarriers!! More 5th and eventually 6 Gen aircraft!!!
It is not by the quantity, but it's quality before the quantity.
In the era of hypersonic missiles, the aircraft carrier is now obsolete in a major conflict, more submarines are the future
You are so right but these boneheaded macho men are not seeing that. One Oreshnik and its caputsville, I don't care how big it is, its a sitting duck.
Nice 🎉❤😊
Ultimately, the question is whether the PLA Navy has the ability (ie a missile) that can disable or sink a carrier. If they have such a thing, then this is just a colossal waste of money and time. But, if the carrier has missile defense systems that are sufficient to protect it, then the carrier resumes its role as a powerful projection of power. Keep in mind that we use these in peacetime to keep trillion dollar trade route open and free from piracy, to render humanitarian aid, and disaster relief, as well as to project soft power to aid in diplomatic negotiations. These floating cities aren't just platforms for war. Though that is their primary function by design, in practice, having such a thing is often the key to preventing having to fight a war in the first place. Bravo to the sailors and Navy aviators who operate these floating cities and keep the world safe and stable.
Carriers can also launch missiles.
America aircraft carrier can sail the world whereas china aircraft carrier can only sail neas as close to home as possible to avoid can't return home.
$1200 air force coffee cup manufacturer concurs.
Unmaned drone planes with no pilot to get tired and stealthier unmanned sub tech is the wave of the future.
God bless America 🇺🇸
Curious to hear how those Chinese missiles that go into low Earth orbit and return at mach 10 can be stopped before hitting one of these new carriers!??
We the mankind should work for construction and not for destruction.
Look “ khan “, ask your to handle their own problems
Bad news is USA is also feeling the challenge from China.
The even worse one is China's ship building capacity is far beyond the USA.
The challenge of china for many countries, the bulletproof face of taking advantage which is frustratingly obvious
Bad news? More like motivation.
Carriers are the only way to project power globally.
Asia will dominate the world soon! I am proud of that
I'm still not impressed with the nuclear engines. I was expecting 1.21 gigawatts from a Flux Capacitor.
U.S. casually showing the rest of the world why we're #1, and don't yall forget it 🇺🇲
This is huge
I'm scared of those Chinese missiles that can sink the Gerald Ford. ⛴️ I didn't know they had that capability.
WELL I KNOW OUR ENEMY MUST BE WATCHING THIS.
Better question is, are our allies ready to fund an overwhelming force of their own so the US doesn't have to shoulder the burden to defend them.
Was crew on CV67 USS John F. Kennedy in the 1980's as ET2 in AIMD PMEL calibration lab. Would love to see that lab in CVN79 JFK.
You can't put a price on the safety of the American people. Stay dominant.
We should build a Navy fleet of 2000 ships!
Carriers still play a major of supporting a mobile air fleet.
God bless America from Canada your best friend and partner in ruling the earth 😆
You might not like it, but it's been a fact since December 2024 that the days of the power-projecting aircraft carrier are over. One Oreshnik missile at Mach 10 is totally unstoppable apparently. Think about it.
China always gotta make bad replicas lmao
What could the Chinese even do with theirs. China hasn't had a major naval conflict in like 500 years.
