They wouldn't even get a chance to try because one F-35 could put it underwater in ten seconds.

That would be an absolutely breathtaking waste of a valuable and highly specialised munition given that this thing is literally just a cargo ship that could be sunk by a stray rpg round or small fire under the right circumstances

I don't understand why this isn't considered a carrier. I see a runway capable of launching aircraft and an elevator to store aircraft. Compared to some of the conversions in the early days of carriers it's definitely considered one.

I was against Blumpf bombing Iran but now that the cats out of the bag we probably should destroy this thing. No carrier has been lost to enemy action since the Card. Sinking a modern carrier even a shitty one would teach us a lot about modern naval warfare.

The idea behind a drone carrier is a solid one, so maybe they can figure something out in time.

The wealthy nations with LHDs should probably turn them into dual helo-drone carriers.

Anyway, the US has done it with SinkEX. USS America. They shot and dropped a lot of munitions at her in "realistic" settings.. They eventually had to scuttle her to finish it.

But is the ship not big enough for them to test naval aircraft? It looks as big as many carriers by other nations. I know it's a conversion but couldn't they use it as a trial for a real carrier and aircraft development? That's what original western carriers were. They were shitty conversions where lots of aircraft crashed like USS Langley in their attempt to learn and develop aircraft and catapults.

I'm guessing the deck isn't strong enough to hold up to heavier aircraft.
>couldn't they use it as a trial for a real carrier and aircraft development?
That's probably the idea. I personally think they might try to buy one of China's old carriers in the future.

Thinking about it, they should probably convert another tanker into a ballistic missile ship. This would provide added flexibility with those things they love so much. It could probably get a salvo off if it wasn't taken out as soon as hostilities start.

It'd be useful for extending the range of SRBMs too. I recall they fired some at ISIS back in the day, so it'd probably be most useful for this sort of thing. Stand-off attack against militants.

The drone carrier can launch observation drones for targeting.

Something like that, probably depends on how quickly China can churn out their domestic built carriers. 3 or 4 modern supercarriers is probably enough for their aspirations in the SCS, at which point they might be open to offloading their old Kuznetsov classes for cheap. I'm sure recent events set Iran's plans back a bit too.

Okay, so why does Iran need a proper carrier in 2045? Or 2075? I'm struggling to see what possible strategy they would have for a carrier or how they would ever be able to afford it or its escorts.
