Well it's actually the safest relatively speaking. In peacetime it is the safest. In wartime no other place would be safer than the military base, outposts, or ships except perhaps defensive bunkers.
@@ggurwlcom420 i am not sure how you find a super strategiec warship. Capable of air support and therefore being tge main target of enemy attacks. Is more safe than a cabing in the woods or on the mountainside ages away from the closest city not only a low population zone if for some reason civilians turn to Targets. Also a not super strategiec target to send out a force to Capture. "Sir we have taken the mountain". Yes and what do we prevent the enemy access to. "Well sir. They can't reach their cabins anymore. Atleast 30 civilians have been taken out" is that it? "Afraid so sir" 😂
@@elementalgolem5498 well in the event of all out war civilians would have no access to military resources be it shelter, rations, or even intel. Sure you'll be minced meat once you're ordered to the front but other than that you'll be kept fed, save and updated not to mention organized. You can argue that cabin in the woods would be saver than urban who might became target of retaliation but is it really ? Once the lawlessness taking over is it really saver than a military base ? I doubt that.
@@ggurwlcom420 Yes. History shows this. Did Britain send its evacuee children to military bases for safety? Of course not. Those where the main targets of the bombings they where trying to escape. They sent them to the countryside, with no factories, air strips, or military bases so they wouldn't be bombed like in the cities
@@wargcaptain It's neither General Quarters or Battle Stations, it is Action Stations. Though it used to be Battle Stations during the world wars, and we haven't used General Quarters in the Royal Navy since the time of sails and wooden hulls.
It's called a ski-jump. It allows aircraft to takeoff at lower airspeed and therefore using less fuel or carrying more payload. The effect is enhanced on vertical takeoff and landing aircraft like the Harrier or F35B. The British have been using them since 1944, but they've never caught on in the US. Infact, the US and France are now the only countries with flat carrier decks left. The US has stuck with flat carrier decks as it marginally improves turnaround time between launches, and US carrier doctrine is still very much based around a WW2 pacific theatre concept that favours being able to launch the entire air-wing in as short a time as possible. Arguably its a very out of date doctrine in the modern era. The French use flat decks because they don't know what they are doing, and these days their beleagured aircraft carrier is little more than an expensive and ineffective white elephant.
@@RandomNickyDee2 I think you misunderstand the function of STOVL ships. The CATOBAR carriers are by no means out of date, and France certainly knows what they are doing with their designs. CATOBAR does tend to have quicker turn around times than STOVL ships, but the point is launching and landing heavier aircraft. Such as fixed-wing AEW/AWAC, EW aircraft, and fighters with heavier payloads.
Certainly CATOBAR is not a dated technology - but steam catapults certainly are. As others have pointed out EMALS has proved much trickier to implement than expected. So until the gremlins have been ironed out the ski jump is the only game in town.
@@eyalgreen8285 Not quite the same. HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH is an aircraft carrier. RMS Queen Elizabeth is a cruise ship. YUGE difference. The planes on the flat deck kinda give it away.
When my Dad was a young sailor the RN (1940's just post WW2) he was told the story of a very unpopular PO who apparently fell overboard in a storm one night.

The rumour was he bullied the wrong man who banged him on the head in the dark put him in the locker secured it and pushed over the side. Dad served with a lot of WW2 vets. He said they could be a hard lot. They had seen and experienced too much! Too many convoys, too many bodies!

The Destroyer could launch her helicopter because it; A, wasnt their crew and B were likely further away when they launched the helo. The reason we didnt see QE launch any of her planes likely stems from the fact that the crew was assembling themselves for role call and due in part to the fact that likely the search and rescue teams *(atleast from what I know about the RCN [proud Canadian here])* are much more readily available with their Rigid Inflatable high speed craft than spooling up a helicopter which takes a few minutes longer than a RHIB, and in a man overboard scenario, minutes are everything.
