Britain at War Magazine | Aircraft Carriers
The aircraft carrier is the flagship of the modern navy. It serves to administer soft power in times of peace and unleashes devastating firepower in times of war.
Capable of delivering both conventional and nuclear weapons, at the centre of a battle group the carrier is the most powerful fighting machine of this century and, through its combat air wing, represents a potent warning that challenges from land, sea or air will meet with proportionate retribution for unprovoked aggression from any force, anywhere.
Aircraft Carriers, a 116-page definitive guide to flat tops, tells the story of how that came about, an evolution of design, construction and innovation, with increasingly sophisticated technologies and equipment to match threats, and to deliver a response to geopolitical challenge from nation states and terror groups alike.
