Seriously tbh I'm sure USA would just give them the tech lul why do bongs not have catobar? Its a 70k ton ship too, such a waste to build large ones like that with ramps.

Carrier catapults go all the way back to WWII. So them not having one is assuredly for some stupid reason and not that they don't have the tech.

Because the bongs probably would just have more problems maintaining CATOBAR systems, theyβve already been using American navy and coastguard engineering crew for years to make up for their deficiencies

Dude it's one of the main reasons. Europoors just get equipment for driving and flying around their shit country. And they know if they need power projection they go to the US

It's easier with nuclear power because you've already got the steam to operate them, but yeah, it seems like a weird choice if you're going to build a carrier that big.

Probably unironically correct. I've seen the russoid Navy with my own eyes in Murmansk and it was like taking a trip to the 1950s. Half their base had been turned into a coal plant, ships we would mothball they just let rust and sink so that they have all these ancient shitheaps half sunk in their ports, and every sailor we met looked like he was ready to rope at any given moment lmao

The US has an almost comically OP navy - even if the all the worldβs other navies ganged up on you, youβd still win.
Obviously we take the piss out of Burgers for being fat and r-slurred and constantly dying in mass shootings and stuff, but your navy is fricking rad tbf.
