Which countries in the world have aircraft carriers, and how many of them each have

Countries that currently have aircraft carriers.

United States: There are 13 aircraft carriers, of which 9 are Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, the latest one is the USS Reagan, and the others are conventionally powered aircraft carriers.

Russia: There is only 1 aircraft carrier "Marshal Kuznetsov", which is part of the Northern Fleet of the Russian Navy.

United Kingdom: There are 3 conventionally powered aircraft carriers of the "Victorious" class.

France: 2 in total, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle and the conventionally powered aircraft carrier Clemenceau.

Italy: 1 light aircraft carrier "Garibaldi", 1 new aircraft carrier is currently being prepared.

Brazil: 2 in total, 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Giant", and 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Foch" from France was also purchased.

India: 3 conventionally powered aircraft carriers, "Vikrant", "Virat" and "Admiral Gorshkov" (built in the Soviet Union).

Thailand: 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier INS Gakri Nalubet.

Spain: 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Prince Asturias".

Japan and South Korea are amphibious landing command ships, not aircraft carriers, to be precise.

Japan: Quasi-aircraft carriers: 2 "Osumi"-class amphibious landing command ships, and 4 more quasi-aircraft carriers are being built.

South Korea: quasi-aircraft carrier "Dokdo".

Britain, the United States, France, Italy, Spain, India, Thailand, Brazil and Argentina (whose aircraft carriers are no longer at sea). If the "Osumi" of the little Japanese devils is also considered an aircraft carrier, then add it as well.

The world's first aircraft carrier came from the British.

First, Britain built the prototype of an aircraft carrier

Although the Frenchman Krayman Ade first proposed the concept of an aircraft carrier, and the American Eugene Illidi once took off and landed an aircraft on a cruiser, it was actually the British who put the concept of aircraft carriers into practice. Bright socks.

Because of the lack of experience with aircraft carriers, the British tried to convert the original cruiser into an aircraft carrier in order to save time and money. After careful consideration, in 1914 the Royal Navy dismantled and converted a cruiser into an aircraft carrier.

But, strictly speaking, this cannot be considered an aircraft carrier. Because this so-called aircraft carrier uses a seaplane, it can only realize the take-off and landing of seaplanes, but not the take-off and landing of real land planes.

Second, Britain has built a real aircraft carrier

The Athletic was the world's first aircraft carrier built to aircraft carrier standards, and although it was completed later than the Japanese Hosho, it incorporates the latest technology used in many modern aircraft carriers, so it is also considered to be closer to the world's first aircraft carrier in the modern sense than the Hosho.

The USS Athletic was ordered in 1917, construction began in 1918, launched on September 11, 1919, and commissioned on February 18, 1924.

On April 9, 1942, the aircraft carrier Athletic was attacked by carrier-based aircraft of the Japanese Navy aircraft carrier near Kikinjidi of the Trincomalee Navy on the island of Ceylon, and was hit by 37 bombs and sank quickly, unfortunately more than 300 people on board were killed.

Third, the performance of the Athletic God is stronger than that of the Fengxiang

In terms of performance, the arena is much better than the Fengxiang, and many of the new technologies used by the Athletic God are ahead of the Fengxiang, and later, when many countries are building aircraft carriers, they learn and borrow from the Athletic God, not the Fengxiang.

The Athletic inherits the all-access flight deck of the Hundred-Eyed Giant, and adopts an enclosed bow, which is wave resistant, making the flight deck stronger.

The three aircraft carriers are the Liaoning, Shandong, and Fujian.

Overview of aircraft carriers by country At the beginning of the 21st century, a total of ten countries in the world had aircraft carriers: Argentina, France, Italy, Russia, Spain, Brazil, India, Thailand, the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as Japan and South Korea. United States:

A total of 13 large aircraft carriers, including the Kitty Hawk, Nimitz and Enterprise classes, are located. United Kingdom: Invincible-class aircraft carrier series, there are now 3 ships, namely "Invincible", "Excellence" and "Ark Royal" France:

There is only one 10,000-ton "Charles de Gaulle" nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in active service. Russia: There is only 1 aircraft carrier "Marshal Kuznetsov" with a displacement of 10,000 tons in active service.

Italy: There are three light aircraft carriers: "Garibaldi", "Count Cavour" and "Cavour". Spain:

At present, there is one light aircraft carrier "Prince of Asturias" with a full load displacement of 10,000 tons. India: 3 conventionally powered aircraft carriers, "Vikrant", "Virat" and "Admiral Gorshkov" (built in the Soviet Union).

South Korea: There is one light aircraft carrier "Dokdo" with a full load displacement of 10,000 tons. Brazil:

There are two aircraft carriers, "Minas Gerais" and "São Paulo". Thailand: There is currently one aircraft carrier, namely the light aircraft carrier "Gakrina Lubet" with a full load displacement of 11,485 tons, which was purchased from Spain in August 1997.

Japan: It now claims to have three Osumi-class "transport ships", which are close in size and combat capabilities to aircraft carriers. Another 1 so-called - 16DDH "helicopter destroyer" "Hyuga".

Argentina: The aircraft carrier "May 25" is the largest warship of the Argentine Navy and the only one in Argentina. The aircraft carrier was originally a "giant" class aircraft carrier of the British Royal Navy, which was purchased and refitted by the Netherlands in 1948, and then resold to Argentina in October 1968, and began service in the Argentine Navy in February 1969.

Although the aircraft carrier has undergone three modernizations, its performance is still inferior. The Afghan Navy had planned to modernize it again in the late 80s, but it was not carried out. In 1982, a mixed formation with it as the core captured the Falklands, and after returning to the sea, it has been huddled in the mainland port and has not been used again.

China: It has purchased aircraft carriers such as the Varyag, Kiev and Minsk from the former Soviet Union, but none of them have been used for military purposes. On March 10, 2006, Wang Zhiyuan, deputy director of the Science Chinese and Technology Committee of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), announced that China would build its own aircraft carriers and develop aircraft carrier battle groups.

At present, there are dozens of ships in use in the navies of various countries around the world. The United States has the largest and largest number of aircraft carriers in the world, and the aircraft carriers of other countries are much smaller than those of the United States. As the world's largest **, its operating expenses are also huge.

The U.S. Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, propelled by two nuclear reactors and four steam turbines, is 340 meters long and carries 6,300 people, and the ship is worth $5 billion, requiring at least $13 million in monthly expenses.

Now there is: the United States. Russia, China, France, Great Britain, India, Argentina, Italy, Thailand.

Note: It is said that the original is *** aircraft carrier, named DDH (*** destroyer).

I especially remember that there are aircraft carriers in Thailand, but it turned out to be too expensive, and I couldn't afford to buy it, so I soaked in the pool for a few years, and it was more than 10,000 tons, and then I felt that it was too much of a loss, so I pulled it to the dock as a tourist attraction

No country in the world has aircraft carriers.

At present, only eight countries in the world actually have aircraft carriers, namely the United States, Russia, France, India, Italy, Spain, Brazil, and Thailand.

United States: The U.S. Navy has 11 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in service. The United States is the country with the most aircraft carriers.

Russia: The aircraft carrier "Kuznetsov", which belongs to the Northern Fleet, is the only aircraft carrier currently in service in the Russian Navy.

France: The Charles de Gaulle is the French Navy's first nuclear-powered medium aircraft carrier and the only one currently in active service in the French Navy.

Brazil: The São Paulo is currently the only aircraft carrier of the Brazilian Navy, and the USS Foch was purchased by Brazil from France in 2000.

India: The Indian Navy currently has only one active aircraft carrier, INS Virat.

Thailand: The Thai Navy has one conventionally powered aircraft carrier, HMS Jakri Nalubet.

Spain: The Spanish Navy has 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier, Prince Asturias.

Italy: The Italian Navy has the light aircraft carrier Garibaldi and the conventionally powered aircraft carrier Cavour.

In addition, there are ships with flat decks that allow aircraft to take off and land, which meet the standard definition of an aircraft carrier, but are classified as amphibious warships, *** motherships and even cruisers and destroyers.

Up to now, nine countries in the world have 25 active aircraft carriers, and the US Navy currently has 12 large aircraft carriers of the second class, including 11 large Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.

France 1 medium-sized nuclear-powered aircraft carrier: "Charles de Gaulle".

British Navy light conventionally powered aircraft carriers, a total of 1, namely "Excellence" (R06) Italy: 2 light conventionally powered aircraft carriers, "Garibaldi", "Cavour" Spain: 1 "Prince of Asturias" conventionally powered aircraft carrier.

India: 1 aircraft carrier in active service, "Virat" conventionally powered aircraft carrier.

Brazil 1, conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Minas Lagis" Thailand: 1 conventionally powered aircraft carrier "Chakri Nalubet".

Now there is also the Chinese Liaoning, which was modified from the Soviet Varyag.

On August 10, 2011, there was an additional Chinese aircraft carrier, the Varyag.
