10 Largest and Longest Aircraft Carriers Of WWII

Рет қаралды 82,096

Күн бұрын

During the onset of World War II, the aircraft carrier emerged as the paramount instrument for delivering naval combat capabilities. The aircraft's advantage against battleships was due to its ability to execute a coordinated assault from distances exceeding 200 miles, whereas battleships were limited to a range of 20 miles or less. Aircraft carriers resemble mobile airfields as they possess a flight deck and facilities for the embarkation, disembarkation, takeoff, and landing of aircraft. This video will present the largest aircraft carriers that were in service during World War II, and they will be ranked based on their total length.

Since the carrier Midway was commissioned 8 days after the end of WW2 you really can't have this carrier on the list!

@@dajuanvariste4751 That is a very dumb statement. If so you have to include all the ships that was designed in ww2 but never commissioned nor completed, such as the Japanese Hakuryu or the Soviet carriers, Germans super carriers and perhaps Italian ones as well. Either way this list is wrong.

CV-14, USS Ticonderoga and all the later Essex class carriers were longer than CV-10 Yorktown. They were called the long-hull Essex class carriers.

@balli7836 6 ай бұрын

Nice, but i have two points to consider: 1. Sparviento and Midway shouldn't be on the list, because in your video you are saying "aircraft carriers that served in WW2". Both of them didn't serve in WW2 because the italian ship was never commissioned and Midway was commissioned after the war. 2. Having Yorktown CV-10 of the Essex-class on the list is confusing. You should either choose U.S.S. Essex herself to represent the class or you should choose Ticonderoga or another long-hull Essex, because they were slightly larger. Also, the original Yorktown (or Yorktown-class) CV-5 is missing because they were also larger than some other ships in the list.

They seem to have confused the Yorktown class (lead by CV-5 Yorktown and not mention in this list at 770 feet) with the Essex class (which had the Yorktown II (CV-10) as part of the class. The Ark Royal was also around 800 feet long.

@silincer5186 6 ай бұрын

How was this list made? If we are going by length then Soryu, Hiryu and Unyru Medium Class carrier are longer than the Illustrious class. Also, Taiho is longer than the Shokaku class. Midway never served during WW2.

Yorktown didn't survive WWII and wasn't present in later conflicts - she was sunk by a Japanese submarine at the battle of Midway. You've most likely mistook Yorktown for some other carrier of this class. [Edit] Yeah, I see now. CV-5 and CV-10, both Yorktowns.

You can’t count Midway. Plus I think you used her angled deck dimensions, not straight deck. And CV-3 Saratoga was slightly larger and heavier than CV-2 Lexington after the extension of her fight deck to 901 feet during the war.

If you put Sparviero and Shinano on the list, which are both not completed then you gotta bring Graf Zeppelin to the list aswell. With 262,5m in length she would even take number 4 spot on the list. But let's not be so picky. Still a nice comparison though

Da italiano appassionato di storia navale, piu che la R. N. Sparviero (solo abbozzata) avrei considerato la R. N. Aquila (praticamente completa e pronta per le prove in mare), ma sarebbe comunque un azzardo: i ns piloti non avevano alcuna esperienza di appontaggio e quindi sarebbe stato necessario farli tornare sul territorio nazionale per atterrare una volta decollati
