| Post subject: | Carriers around the world: |
Ok I have been doing some research and found what countries posses carriers and what style they are: France - 1 light carrier + plans for another but no funds, - 1 amphibious assault ship (VSTOL heli) due in 2004 & 1 in 2006 Italy - 1 Light VSTOL carrier + 1 in construction for 2007 Spain - 1 VSTOL carrier United Kingdom - 3 VSTOL carriers + 2 planned for the future, unkown if they will be VSTOL or CTOL - 1 amphibious assault ship (VSTOL heli), India - 1 VSTOL carrier + possible production and aquasition of more Thailand - 1 small VSTOL Carrier Brazil - 1 light carrier US - 13 multirole carriers + 1 being build & 2 planned for 2013-18 - 12 amphibious assault ships (VSTOL heli) + 1 being build Russia - unclear are the cercumstances surrunding Kuznetsov Ukraine - resposable for Kiev & Kuznetsov class carrier, has the expireince to build them. China - Working on its own program has bought 3 aircraft carriers (or part of them) as test beds from Brazil, France, Russia. ON THE SIDE NOTE IF YOU HAVEN"T NOTICED BELOW TOMMOROW IS THE 110th YEAR!!! |

Thailand... Their carrier is nearly identical to the Spanish carrier, both of which resemble the Wasp class, but with skijumps. I could make these carriers for FA with the same type of skijump that is in use for the Kutznetsov... If anyone is interested? |

ON THE SIDE NOTE IF YOU HAVEN"T NOTICED BELOW TOMMOROW IS THE 110th YEAR!!! We invented airplanes in 1903 (100 years ago, not 110). So what'd they fly, balloons? If so then that aint much to take pride on in starting an airforce. |

Yes it will be available for use, as it is not for FA Futures... Just as that all Grey SU-35 WITHOUT CAMMO that I have been trying to tell you about... However it will have to wait until my next version of FA Futures is released... |

Well yes 110 year ago the air corps was estblished, flying balloons, and 1912 the first trained pilots came back from France. The air corps was estblished to go along with the conventional armies who were fighting the Turks to assist. CAG the reason why their aircraft carriers are so simular is probalby because they were both build in Spain. but the spanish carrier carriers more harriers then theis tai carrier. |

It also has more advanced electronics and radars, as the Thailand version was put to sea without it for financial reasons... |

Possibly i am not fully fimiliar with their carrier but if they are the same type why does the: Chakri Nareubet small VSTOL carrier only carry 6 Av-8S Harriers and 4 SH-60 Seahawks While the Principe de Asturias VSTOL aircraft carrier can acoomidate max of 22 VSTOL (usually 10 AV-8B/B+, 6 SH-3H, 2 SH-3H AEW, 4 AB-212) If They are of the same design why is there such a difference i aircraft accomidation. |

That is actually a simple answer that you have overlooked... Thailand doesnt own any more then that.... |

| Post subject: | Re: Carriers around the world: |
Well i guess I have, but there is huge prob with their carrier, due to money problem, as you have mentioned before, it lacks electronics as well as it has not been activily in service sence it was deleivered in 1997. |

Sad what the Soviet Navy has become. Not that it was anything glorious, hell their subs were so much noisier than ours all the time but it was at least a rival. |

It is very sad what they have become, but they opetated the world largest sub the Typhoon, now that was an impressive sub, no matte how noisy it was, it is very impressive. |
