Hi folks,

An area for your Aircraft Carrier Ideas and Inspiration.

(The above pic was based very loosely on a Hong Kong comic but now follows the proper PLAN ship naming convention- so nope, that ex-Varyag would very unlikely be called Shi-Lang even if we leave out the "turncoat for the Manchu" details.)

Those bigger guns are single 130mm upgraded to fire guided shells (originally developed for Luda class DDG), BTW:

What if Tienanmen Square Incident did not occur soon enough......



(The gist of the picture: SCS evolution passed to the PRC, who in turn built a CVS for Pakistan.)

GTX_Admin:
A couple of ideas.  What about turning either the Wasp class LHD or the Invincible class light Carriers into conventional carriers with angled decks and either catapults or STOBAR style ski jump?

Not really a conversion, but a "what if it's built this way?" kind of thing.



Yes, I realized that I have not got around making a top view.  :-X

GTX_Admin:
I see what you have done.  I wonder what aircraft would have been suitable in the '80's/'90s timeframe.  Maybe A-7s as replacements for A-4s?  Sea Jaguars?  Naval BAE Hawk 100/200s?

Regards,

Greg
