Aircraft Carriers completely changed the landscape of war with the ability to launch attacks much closer to enemy territory and retrieve the aircraft without sacrificing the expensive machines. But these behemoths of the sea were not always the dominating war machines we know of today. Check out our epic new video to learn about how aircraft carriers have evolved to become a staple in every major military's arsenal.

How would the 2022 US Economy Compare and react compared to that of WW2 Economy in the event of a global war compared to that of China and Russia?
I served on both the Eisenhower and Nimitz. Incredible ships
That’s awesome! Thank you for your service!
Amazing,thank you for your service
How loud was it from under the flight deck (assuming you weren’t serving on deck) and if you were how loud was it there?
@@Hexigonic Incredibly loud. my bunk was under the number 3 arresting wire, so you learn to sleep with planes " crashing' over your head
Thank you for your service!
The brother of my great grandfather was a Nakajima pilot on the aircraft carrier IJN Akagi.
He took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor and also survived the battle of midway
Lucky man to make it that far. Midway was brutal. Fascinating family history. Thank goodness it's all in the past.
I’m sorry to hear your family was full of Nazi’s and fascists. I wouldn’t be spreading that info, would hate for your employer to see your family history!
he should be punished for war crimes against humanity
Fascinating but the a relative being involved in pearl harbour is NOT something to be proud of.
Baga!
Fun fact: the IJN Akagi was laid down as a battlecruiser, but the japanese changed because of washington naval treaty. after that it has been scuttled because of it's heavy damage on the battle of midway.
Rest in peace akagi, you were the best yandere
IJN Kaga too
but the Akagi couldn't hold as many carriers as the standard American ones did and AA capability was limited allowing the dive bombers to do significant damage.
@@disbeme3175 couldn't hold as many what?
@@disbeme3175 well if it was a cruiser originally they should not have had to convert except out of military necessity because the Washington Naval Treaty only placed limits on battleships with their massive thick armor belt, and not on Cruisers. And back then the still nascent aircraft carrier, as well as submarines all fit in the cruiser class primarily based on their displaced tonnage size.
I served on an Aircraft Carrier. They are a thing of beauty,awe,and power.
Thank you for your service, sir.
Look at his profile picture! He was not lying!!!
@@rygy729 You are very much welcome. It was an honor to serve my country 💯
What carrier may I ask?

Aircraft carriers existed during the American Civil War. Hot air balloons were launched and returned to ships to keep a lookout on the Confederacy Coast with some even venturing in land before returning. The frist heavy aircraft carriers (that carried planes appeared later)
Edited 8/2/221849 the Austrian Navy ship SMS Vulcano was the frist to use balloons from the ship for military bombing in the first offensive use of air power in naval aviation. However these balloons were unmanned and were recorded to have also dropped their payloads back onto Austrian lines. American unionists did use manned balloons for warfare
that isn't a aircraft carrier, thats a hot air balloon on a ship
@@bejaminmaston1347 Aircraft carriers are warships that evolved from balloon-carrying wooden vessels into nuclear-powered vessels carrying scores of fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft. Since their introduction they have allowed naval forces to project air power great distances without having to depend on local bases for staging aircraft operations. Balloon carriers were the first ships to deploy manned aircraft, used during the 19th and early 20th century, mainly for observation purposes. The advent of fixed-wing aircraft in 1903 was followed in 1910 by the first flight from the deck of a US Navy cruiser. Seaplanes and seaplane tender support ships, such as HMS Engadine, followed. The development of flat top vessels produced the first large fleet ships. This evolution was well underway by the early to mid-1920s, resulting in the commissioning of ships such as Hōshō (1922), HMS Hermes (1924),[1] Béarn (1927), and the Lexington-class aircraft carriers (1927).
@@islandmaster5064 ackshually.....
@@coolbuffdad yes?
I feel while an interesting anecdote, I don’t see ballon launching as “aircraft”. This is like people who believe that the Gatling gun was “the first machine gun”. No the Gatling wasn’t and balloons aren’t!!!
As I said I understand why you bring it up. However it is in a different related category that invalidated it.
Wow, the extra effort on the graphics over time has been noticed. Fantastic job! Whoever you are, or whoever you people are!
Yes. They no longer use the same templates, but they now tailor the animations to match the story arc. A tenfold improvement I would say...
In the future, helicarriers will replace aircraft carriers.
This is the development, we are moving towards. It will probably happen!
@@RealNeutronStar helicopters are already launched from aircraft carriers

@@sayhallo3769 yeah, it will probably be in like 2400 or something.
I really like the cartoony art style with making a modern destroyer ship cartoon for a 1907 ship :)
Keep up the great work as always Infographics show!! 👍
10:52 If only the Time Traveling 1980s USS NIMITZ had only not recalled its planes and gone ahead to sink all 6 of Japan's largest heavy aircraft carriers .... the world would be an entirely different place. 😆
Was there some sort of Countdown to recall them... With some sort of Finality?
Great movie! Tons of fun, and that's coming from a sailor
At that point, the "war" in the pacific is over. When the strike force returns home and tells the tale of what happened, I think they would put all of there offensive actions on hold.
The first true aircraft carrier was the HMS Argus, built on the hull of an uncompleted liner named the SS Campanga. The first American carrier was a converted collier named the USS Jupiter and renamed the USS Langley.
the Argus was not the first aircraft carrier designed. it was converted to an aircraft carrier partway through construction. The Langley is still the first aircraft carrier with the uss Lexington was the first carrier designed as a carrier.
@@koolbroz7223 The Argus, if I'm not mistaken, was built on the hull of s Chilean battleship named the Almirante Cochrane, after Thomas Cochrane, the father of the Chilean Navy.
@@blaircolquhoun7780 no thats the Hermes
@@koolbroz7223 Langley was NOT the first Aircraft Carrier and Lexington certainly was not designed as an Aircraft Carrier, it was designed as a BattleCruiser.

IJN Houshou was the first purpose built to be commissioned
HMS Hermes was the first purpose built to be laid down and first with an offset control tower.

My great great grandfather Arthur Channing served in the Royal Navy on 3 ships HMS Magicienne a cruiser during the boers war he was on it from 1899-1900 and then HMS Hibernia from 1906-1917 and then HMS Warspite from 1917-1926 his son then served on hms intrepid a destroyer from 1936- 42 and then HMS illustrious from 42-50
My favorite piece of military equipment, all because of world of warships, don’t really play it nowadays but it’s in my heart
Very proud to be apart of one. ABH is the best rate in the Navy!
Recently I have been to Ernakulam. There I saw INS Vikrant docked in Cochin shipyard. It looked magnificent. Its going to be commissioned into the Indian Navy next month. Indian Navy is in the process of purchasing of aircraft for its air fleet. Rafale-M and FA-18 super hornets are the contenders. Most probably super hornets are going to be selected.

@@tinyyoutuber.2091 chinese cardboard missiles lol
@@tinyyoutuber.2091 all it takes is a US laser to beam it outta the air.
Why focus on missiles when lazers and railguns are around the corner?
@@AKH464 this is the reason your father left
AEGIS defenses, along with patriot and THAAD, (designed to intercept ICBM re-entry vehicles at various ranges) can hypothetically target and defeat hypersonic missles (which are slower then re-entry vehicles.) They travel in mostly straight trajectories and their mobility is limited due to speed. Close in engagement systems like the Phalanx deal with massed carriers threats. Not to say it's indestructible, but it doesn't sail by itself. It has a whole fleet of capable ships that coordinate together to protect the carrier
Wow an intelligent comment on this issue. An indirect point is that the people claiming carriers are dead (chinese) are scrambling to build them. That’s like saying the ocean is gonna rise 2 meters in ten years but buying a beach house
Air superiority is basically a win with no chance of a come back
Yes W without a chance
Notable omissions from the video include HMS Ark Royal (later named HMS Pegasus), generally considered to be the first true aircraft carrier; HMS Furious, the first to launch and land wheeled aircraft (carrier with largest armaments, an 18-inch gun); Hōshō, the first purpose-built carrier; HMS Hermes, the first with off-set superstructure and hurricane bow (built first but launched after Hōshō due to learnings from existing carriers); and HMS Warspite, honorary aircraft carrier for being the first to sink a U-boat with a ship-launched plane.
Always have been proud of Eset
great work yet again!!
Yay, another upload!
12:37, on modern carriers, there are np "radio operators", the stairing of the aircraft is helped by three lights on side of the carrier.
A carrier is essentially a Brigade/ Regiment to Division going on Corps of weaponry, skills, and service men & women to defend our country and its interests over our beautiful world, God Bless!!!
Defend? not really, militaries across the globe, especially the US military are causing alot of damage to innocent people, these weapons are images of freedom to you but horror to many, an astronomical amount of people lose their lives in wars they don't wanna take part in, if anything, every development in this field should be condemned rather than enjoyed, if our country's interests are in harming others than we seriously need to revise our policies.
Total greatness. Remember playing axis and Allie’s . Carriers are the real deal . Destroyers much cheaper
We NEED the continuation of the end of civilization video. Part 2 please

The USS Enterprise Aircraft carrier also was the inspiration for one of the greatest pop culture creations of all time. Star Trek. The Big E is also getting a Ford Class upgrade. CVN-80.
Big E was the most decorated Navy warship in all of WWII
The largest Air Force in the world is the USAF. The 3rd largest Air Force in the world is the United States Navy air arm. Fascinating when you think about it.
Very nice!

I’m so glad to finally see somebody with a sponsor from esetsuch a good company I’ve been using them for years wish more ppl used it
i see helicopter = i like video.
Yeah! ESET is from Slovakia ;-)
The argument nobody ever seems to talk about when it come to "are carriers obsolete and did america fail to see the shift" is if carriers are obsolete and there was this big shift then why is China pooling all of its man power and resources to build their own and catch up technologically to their U.S counterparts.
18:35 Man :that's not safe
Evolution outrite is my favourite subject!!! Roa Aotearoa nui.
We need part two of I survived a nuclear war
Would it be possible to see a video about how a war between China and Taiwan would affect the world and the world economy. Also would the USA get involved??
I always have a good day when I hear that voice
Really strange they can't vary the force from steam catapults. Seems like it would be easy to adjust the rate they released steam to build up pressure.
Yeah I thought that. We could adjust steam boilers for 100s of years. Why not now?
@@kieronparr3403 nuclear is more effective, as both a power and a fuel source. Steam requires diesel engines, which means oil is required which makes operation time for a Aircraft carrier limited. Nuclear can power an aircraft carrier for 25 years without a need to change the fuel. Not having to rely on that limitation is why America wants to use nuclear.
The USAs speed boat is the USS Enterprise
The future of aircraft carriers stand on coordinated defence from dispersed assets...
Please make a video about the process behind your videos.
Dont know if I'm wrong or not but the USAF operates over 3000 aircraft in its airforce ,larger than any other country, I think they have the largest airforce in the world
US Air Force 5300
US Navy 3700
US Navy also operates more aircraft than any other country

Dang I really Love the way you make all of the war makers sound like babbling buffoons. And despite that I feel like a much more informed person regarding history thank you so much
If 2D cartoons make you feel “more informed” you were never informed. Watch a documentary. Pick up a book. “Babbling buffoons”? Maybe the info was beyond your level of comprehension.
Technically, the first "aircraft carrier" was the Lon Springstead in 1908. During the early 1900's Alexander Graham Bell (yes the telephone guy) teamed up with aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss in Hammondsport, NY to test their Red Wing aircraft. They did this on a mostly frozen Keuka Lake and used the Lon Springstead to transport the plane to the best section of ice. There's actually pictures of the event. So while the plane didn't take off or land from it, this was the fist time a plane had ever been transported via water.
Hello, seems you made a mistake at 20:59. As you can see you guys made a typo instead of rectors reactors.
Is it just me or does the art of the island in modern super carriers in these videos looks like squidwards house
I am looking for your suggestion button on your website and I can't find it anywhere.
All this firepower you'd think we're readying to defend the planet from invasion.
And then there was those three aircraft carriers that didn't have a runway, they just slapped a clothesline off the side of it, bolted a clothes hanger on the aircraft, and flew planes on and off of it.
Edit: the Brodie landing system, for anyone who wants to look it up.
Me qhen i saw the sponsor at the start from eset, hey, i have eset
It seems to me that the carriers are just massive targets and extremely expensive. Certainly hope the defenses are enough to ward off any attack but technologies are being developed that will most definitely will endanger even the most defended carrier. This goes for allies & enemies.
It is not about carriers being massive target, they are just white elephants. How often would you get to use one? Some carriers are build without use its entire service lie.
Carriers are always escorted by a handful of destroyers equipped with anti missile and anti submarine systems and the carrier also comes with its own anti-missile systems and anti sub system. Hypersonic missiles and ballistic missiles are the only threat, and both have very prescribable terminal approach phases that make them easy targets.
Unless we get a technology as revolutionary as the carrier was to the battleship, I doubt they will ever fall out of favor.
Some can even deploy sea to land craft
The new type 003 carrier uses EMALS.
It uses desal though the ford class uses two advanced nuclear reactors to provide the electricity it would shorten chinas range significantly
It’s easy how they’re taking you say you’re a floating city with an airport how can you do better than that it’s the airport that makes it strongest plus it’s so big you can have tons of missiles and guns along with fighter jets and helicopters And a whole arsenal of different weapons and defenses like I said it’s a floating city
And now, aircraft carriers are becoming increasingly obsolete.
maybe the Russians or the Chinese
Not so much.
Remember the old adage of 'using the right tool for the job'? At sea, nothing really beats what the aircraft carrier is capable of. However, like all valuable assets, you will want to protect it. No carrier group goes without a hefty ASW and AA screen.
I've heard comments like yours concerning tanks and so on. The tool just needs to be used properly.
if carriers are obsolete then why did china just finish building one?
God bless you!
What about the battle of midway?
Ww1 & cold war games: WHO CAN MAKE THE BETTER PLANE, TANK AND SHIP BEST WINS!
USA was the most amazing developing anti air weapondry because they saw the threat before others, not that they put it in the offensive first nor they where the best on it, please give the credit to who ever deserves...
Murica sittin on 20 waiting for the rest of the world to catch up
how? the reactor inside that powers it to sail non stop without refueling for next twenty years
It’s a nuclear reactor. It doesn’t use that much uranium, so decades worth of uranium doesn’t take up that much space.
I served on the Carl Vinson!
I’m making an aircraft carrier in a game, so I like it
I see a big furture for Mobile Navy Port War Ships. Something I want to build when I become Prime minister of the Netherlands.

"Carrier killer from China with love"

I have a hard time seeing how aircraft carriers can defend against hypersonic missiles if a war broke out tomorrow. They need those laser defense systems ASAP.
You have to find the boat to shoot a missile and the ocean is very big.
@@trey1531 It might be relatively easy when you are on patrol, but I doubt so in an engaged conflict. Especially in the South China Sea, where the conflict would likely take place.
Who says they have not laser weapons? You know the U.S carriers have not just their own protection, self-defence but ships as well defending them, as other nations do, except the United Kingdom. The two most recent aircraft carriers of the British navy have no defence capability. One would have thought that after the Falkland's war our M.O.D would have equipped our aircraft carriers with anti-missile defence systems.
hypersonic missiles are overhyped, ships are incredibly hard to track and even if you do hit the carrier, it can withstand multiple hits
The interesting point to make is that a carrier can withstand way more damage than any other ship. Look up uss america, you would then understand how any missile would be a waste of money, unless it’s a nuke.
My fav ship is aircraft carriers
16:40 isn't it typically 3 to 4 arresting wires
Yes, it is. Multiple wires increases the chance of catching one.
legends say infocraphics will reply to this
I thought they used cables to launch and stop aircrafts on the decks? Maybe that's ancient tech?
To stop, yes, and he talked extensively about that, even supplying graphics depicting their operation. To launch, no. To my knowledge, never.
And I was a sailor. We were required to learn about naval history and the history of naval technology, so "to my knowledge" actually means something here.
@@rivercrimea4849 up into the '60s the aircraft were connected to the cat using cables. You can see them being used to launch everything prior to the F-14.
@@jarheadcharlie2315 hmmmm... Guess they didn't cover that part in our history lessons. Then again, I never served on a carrier, so I guess it was less important for us to know that.
Anyway, thanks for the info!
@@rivercrimea4849 No worries. The cable is called a Catapult Bridle. The cable had loops on both ends that connected to two hooks (called the Van Velm Bridle Arresters) on the bird's body and the center of it clipped onto the shuttle. They came up with this method back when everything was still a tail dragger.
A counter point to what you said about us losing a carrier being a major blow… three words. US Industrial Complex.
That is all. Have a nice day. 😎
I thought the Japanese Hosho was the first actually launched Aircraft carrier? Also Fun Fact the Aircraft carrier Kaga was actually supposed to be a large Battleship Tosa Class :)

@@kevinpresley3136 We operated three, Vengeance ( which was sold to Brazil in 1955 becoming the Minas Gerais ), Sydney and Melbourne. Sydney was latter used as a fast troop transport during the Vietnam war, becoming known as the Vung Tau Ferry.
Before the Faklands war, we were going to buy one of the British Invincible class, but the British changed their mind about selling it after the Falklands war.
acually pearl harbor wasent that bad, despite most of their battleships being destroyed, their oil, and barracks were completely untouched allowing ships to refule and deploy faster than japan could.
how is 2 most of them, other then the Oklahoma and Arizona, every battleship was risen
@@Youraveragegamer_97 ok they were risen but they couldn't be used or repurposed they had to be turned into scrap metal then made for what probably became aircraft carriers. And the Oklahoma and the Arizona were the two crown jewels of the entire pacific combined fleet. so the moral of the soldiers on the western front of amarica lost some of their moral. And the Oklahoma like the Arizona had new and more powerful guns with a faster average loading speed and they both were more speedy than amaricas WW1 father: the texas.
The USS ARIZONA 🇺🇸 and USS 🇺🇸OKLAHOMA were the only 2 Battleships sunk at Pearl Harbor.USS OKLAHOMA was later raised but deemed non repairable.BTW they were the only fleet carriers to be sunk in the entire war.

The future are with Nuclear Submarines not Aircraft Carriers, a single well placed hidden submarine can sink Aircraft Carriers and even an entire fleet of Destroyers without even knowing what hit them.
Submarines can't project air power, which is the purpose of a carrier.
Since you can see the future and all, can I get some lotto numbers?
@@derekfordyce9 Yes exactly they are good for a show of force but in actual combat scenario against a capable adversary with long range cruise missiles they have become pretty much obslete a single missile hitting your carrier and it's 30-40 billion dollars down the drain if you even count the cost of aircrafts upon it plus Aircraft Carriers are hard to hide and do not come in stealth configuration in case of any major conflict in the past century every navy tries to hide it's carriers cuz they know the risk of enemy going specifically after carriers is extremely high and is a huge loss both to moral and thousands of lives, that's why Nuclear Subs are more practical in a modern naval wars .
