  • Let's put nuclear stuff in the ship, so when the enemy nail our asses, we fu*k up the entire ocean!

  • 85 aircraft is a little defens? he is somewhere in the ocean. dont forgot Range: unlimited :). He put the aicraft in air very very fast :).

  • Iraqi freedom !!!! then they wonder why americans are idiots

  • @anawad8lba2012

    Canadians suck.

    With love, Germany. 

  • me: its so big >w<

    nimitz: i am big :D

  • should be #1. If I had the choice of one Nimitz or 10 Iowa battleships. I would take the Nimitz sounds like someone at military channel is a little biased.

  • @deanlibertyoldtimeco There's no denying the Nimitz is better, but that's because they're about 40 years newer. I think they put the Iowa as number one just as a tribute the the WWII ships and the men that served aboard them. There's no denying that the Iowas saw their fair share of combat, plus their service length ended up being damn near as long as the Nimitz class. Impressive for steam boiler powered World War II battleships

  • that thing is nasty

  • One carrier can level a city as big as toronto and can destroy a country the size of libya or the congo.

  • @1988scottcarey Only if it has its own airwing...without an airwing US carriers are useless. In comparisson to russian who make aircraft carriers which are actualy missile cruisers and in case of its airwing being destroyed can still punch a big number of nuclear or antiship missiles

  • Just asking, but how powerful is this ship if Iraq and afghanistan terms lasted 10 years?

  • @powershop1903 we can't just go in and bomb every thing. A carrier can easily destroy a country.

  • @powershop1903 There's 2 carriers near the Persian Gulf right now and they can level all of the Gulf's navies combined.

  • How do the fighter planes stay on board if the ship is sailing in rough seas?

  • we have eleven, rest of the world has 8 lmao

  • Bruce Lee's toy boat

  • Love this

  • where is the top 1? help

  • Don't you people realize the usa is in decline and won't be a superpower for very long!!!!!?????

    

  • @avron44 are you a moron? The united states is not as strong as it was yesterday but it is still miles ahead of the competition. We are a hyperpower at the moment but we will remain a super power for atleast 100 years. We have almost unlimited resources. We have a large population. So us and china will be super powers for along time. Our resources are huge.

  • @avron44 You don't really know much do you? USA spends 700 billion a year while China in 2nd place spends 100 billion! WHAT A DIFFERENCE! 2nd place is a long long way! China would have to do ALOT of catching up! You know how to do math right? Then I suggest using it! USA spends more money on it's military then the WHOLE rest of the world COMBINED! Do some research and you shall see what I am talking about!

  • First of all you have your facts wrong the united states military spends more money on it's military then the nexxt 17 countries combined not the whole world. Second, if you read my post properly i said the usa won't be a superpower for very long which means it still one today.Third, as china grows in economic might it will eventually spend more on its military than the usa and therefore china will have the more advanced military in the long run. You don't have a clue about your fact

  • @avron44 I am not trying to call you stupid or anything but I am right about the USA spending more money on it's military then the rest of the world combined! Second of all opinion does not reflect on how I did or did not read your post properly! A long time could mean 1 year (to some people) or a long time could mean 25 years (to other people). So, why are you saying "if you read my post properly"? I think you're trying to out smart me and that won't happen in a million years!

  • @jacobg1777 Also just to throw some info at your way, China is not going to be in it position for much longer! China has a problem with relying on selling it's good to other countries. When other countries are doing bad, guess what. China does bad! China is going to hit the biggest housing bubble in history. Soon to come. China is building and building. Not good when no one is moving in. Sounds like what happened in the USA 5 years ago. China's bubble will be 10x's worse then what USA went thru.

  • @jacobg1777 its true that only the UK, France and USA have the best technologically advanced navy's in the world, but china is learning and fast, what i feel would be better would be if NATO worked properly, so that standardised frigates, carriers etc would be utilised rather than different ships for different nations, usa could have 10 carriers, uk and france 2, italy and spain 1 each. every major war now will be fought with allies, well apart frm the falklands..we beat the shit outta em.

  • @jacobg1777 China makes more then they consume. You need to have a balance. They need to have their own people buy from them. China is starting to up it's wages and countries like USA are pulling out of China only because they are not saving money anymore like they used to. They might as well bring it's factory's back to the USA. Which this is actually happening as we speak. America's unemployment rate is dropping. Experts are predicting a bad future for China.

  • @jacobg1777 no they are not, stop trying to make yourself feel better, chinas economy this year will probrably GROW at a reduced rate of 7-8%, compared to USA's probable growth of anywhere between -1% to +2%. china instead of investing in social benefits is buying everyones currencies, it has the most 'cash' of any nation atleast 2 trillion dollars of free capital to spend on anything it wants...it could buy 1,000 nimitz class carriers for that. china doesnt care ...

  • @avron44 Oh and also, THE WHOLE WORLD IS IN DECLINE! So if USA drops a little so does the rest of the world! Every country is having money issues! USA is very good with fighting it's problems! USA has been in a recession before and it came out of it! USA will overcome the recession and it actually is coming out of it! Read some news! USA went into bad recession 4 years ago and now USA is doing better! Unemployment rate is decreasing so in terms USA is not declining, their INCLINING!

  • @avron44 People like you are so simple minded and live on a straight mindset! You think you are right about everything in life even tho you are wrong! I don't get people like you! People like you only HATE every second of their life! HATE HATE HATE! You hate seeing rich people, you hate seeing people with nice things, you hate people who are better then you! STOP BEING A HATER! It will help you in life! You should thank me for my great advice!

  • dfd

  • Wow..Check your facts that's all I can say. You have no idea what your talking about you wasted three paragraphs trying to tell me facts that are simply not true and second of all who cares what country has the biggest military budget nobody cares except a few insecure americans like yourself, your time of bullying people around the world is coming to an end so get used to it buddy..

  • @avron44 Lol... Do you expect me to even believe what you say? You don't even know proper grammar! The simplest thing.. Oh and it's "you're" not "your"! Fucking dumbass! Don't try to tell me shit when you don't even know proper English you fucking retard!! LMFAO! Like your, I mean "you're" gonna make me feel like I am retatytrdedded, I mean retarded! LOL!! Fucking idiots only make a fool of themselves! You have already proven how fucking stupid you are! Excuse my language you FUCKING FAG!

  • @avron44 You have to be really retarded! Common sense will tell you the more money you have the better it is! You get what you pay for! You say who cares how much money the USA spends? Well it is obvious you're only saying that because IT DOES FUCKING MATTER AND YOU KNOW IT MATTERS! You buy a set of cheap tools they won't last as long as the more expensive tools! Duh.. You fucking idiot! Are you like really dumb? I think so! There is a reason why things are cheap you stupid fuck!

  • with all those missile launchers why the hell did they say it has no defences?

  • @EricRmd because other warships have fat armor, nimitz has none so it can fit in more aircraft

  • @jamariooo omg comprehension fail. Missile launchers are clearly seen on this ship, yet they say it has no defences.

  • @EricRmd you fail, here is explanation for stupid people --> all other warships have ARMOR, go look in vocabulary what word armor means, in the case of ships it reffers to thick sides of hull, just look at reviews of other ships, they say how fat in inches it is.Thus they mean it has no protection from damage. btw it needs none protection because it has airplanes and missile launchers to prevent being hit.

  • @jamariooo they said defences not armour.

  • @EricRmd it relies on a carrier battle group for protection, also it's a magnet for enemies, because taking out a carrier would be disastrous...

  • @EricRmd well the US carriers are called soft armed ships...of course it has defence but its quite static and is actualy uncapable fighting without its air wing. in comparison(if you can compare even) the russian admiral kuznetsev is a heavy armed ship becouse it has antiship capability...well actualy its a aircraft carring missile cruiser, so the ship can defend and fight against other ships without the air wing.

  • Whether you hate or love the USA, it doesnt change the fact that if this ship was floating on your shores, youd be shitty bricks.

  • @wtong89 theyll be shittin ovaltines hahahahhahah if they hate is PURE ENVY!

  • @wtong89 Honestly atomic subs are more fearsome

  • "And if you're an opponent of the U.S. it tells you we're interested in changing your policy" haha I love how factual he is about it. But then again it's true

  • Lololl... Range: unlimited. haha made me laugh. But anyways the Carrier does have protection mostly from air attacks and cruise missile. It has 3 sea sparrow missile launchers, 4 seawiz. (r2d2 with a weiner) and 2-3 other tpye of close range anti air missile. forget the name. So yes it does have protection..

  • awesome ship but others are designing weapons dedicated to destroy carrier

  • Considering the accuracy, velocity, range and power of new missile technology, aren't these vessels a species on its way to extinction? Sort of new Do-dos?

    I can hardly believe she can stop - at least all - incoming missiles from different angles. Its umbrella range, in case she needs to protract it - and due to the earth's curvature, would be more than 50 miles, enough range to launch missiles expecting at least three or four to hit. Right or wrong?

  • It was need it in Afghanistan? against a 3rd world country or a cave man country idk but rly? WTF Afghanistan had? Ak-47 and rocket launcher?

  • @Burdock007

    They are used to support the Marines ... the bombs would be dropped on fortified enemy structures and the aircrafts would take down fleeing Talibans or intercept suspected Taliban convoys. Not sure what your whining is about ... if I saw a roach, I could use my hands to squash it, but I'd prefer to use a rolled up newspaper instead.

  • thumbs up if you were whatching minecraft videos

  • @nickwarman1 Not really. Now if you name it after an aircraft, it makes since. Actually the United States Air Force has an aircraft called the F-22 Raptor.

  • range : unlimited had me laughen in seconds

  • @971YOURMOM I think the range means "Unlimited" is because of the nuclear reactor, it can stay at sea for a long time.

  • wtf an aircraft carrier with no protection lol?

  • @theagemon5 i think it means protection from other battelships with guns not planes

  • @dafrandle oh ok my bad hehe : /

  • @theagemon5 Protection here means *armor* on the hull.

  • @NatedogJr ok : )

  • '

    i like this american largest nimitz aircraft carrier than china / ussr russia

  • UK Is Losing I heard That That are cutting jobs because no more funds available and the air force and navy have scrap half of their jets and ships and they are losing men in Afghanistan and they are going to reduced soldiers and the manpower will be all time low in the 3 Years so Looks like UK Are Falling Down.

  • protection none??? these super carriers r armed with atleast 4 sea sparrow missle launchers and 3 or 4 phalanx CIWS (close in weapons system) for defending itself and shooting down enemy missiles

  • Protection: None

    I don't think the enemy would agree.

  • @AeroGastby and its also the only thing that limits it's range. =)

  • The U.S. so called "future" in the eyes of the military is continueing to attack, destroy and exploit other countries! The US is building up and supporting dictators worldwide, they made over 50 Wars since 2.WW, destroyed many democracys and are responsible for the deaths of over 6 million People!

    There is not even one Country were the U.S. "brought democracy" without exploiting the country and its people!

    Due to this the US is totally bankrupt, US-citizens suffer and the rich get richer!

  • @HousekaterClaudio You have never been hear so how would you know anything about us. You should take a history class so you can learn a little bit about the United States of America.

    Dick.

  • @MrDev809

    So, just test me.

    Name me some US Wars and i will tell you what i mean!

  • @HousekaterClaudio

    American Revolution War, Quasi-War, Barbary Wars, War of 1812, Mexican-American War, American Civil War, Spanish-American War, Phillipine-American War, World War I, War War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, Dominica Republic, Grenada, Pananma, Persian Gulf War, Somali Civil War, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraqi War, North-west Pakistan, Libya.

  • dear santa...

  • 2nd, really why isnt this number 1

  • @muf321 Iowa class battleship is no 1

  • Put those engines in a Maus tank and it would go like a fucking Veyron Bugatti with a 100 times faster engine

  • how costet this??

  • There's a lot of info wrong with this video. Defense and refueling of the reactor...wth? Jeeze I hate it when someone doesn't do their homework before making these vids. That's like me posting a video on how space shuttles work from the cockpit, without ever seeing one.

  • @AeroGastby The aircraft need fuel though and I imagine they would run out of onboard fuel fairly quickly.

  • Chrsit do these guys get so much wrong.

  • Not for the first time, the first time was the USS Enterprise

  • The Nimitz is the only aircraft carrier that traveled back in time and almost defeated the Japanese Navy.

  • @rickcain2320 Lol Im sure if they travelled back in time they could easily defeat the japanese navy. WWII fighters couldnt have a hope of shooting down modern jets.

  • Defence: none? Okay... so those 85 aircraft are just for decoration? And wtf: refueled every 13 years? Yeah, and then what with that nuclear waste? Oh, right: pack it into a bomb and drop it onto Iraq.

    Hooray for the U.S. military! =DDD

  • Comment removed

  • @indendunklenschatten Yeah and then they went on to say it has onboard surface to air missiles anyway. Are they not defence?

  • @indendunklenschatten Yeah, I had to LOL at the defense crap (didn't they just talk about its missles?) and refueling. That was my ship for 2 years before my squadron changed airwings.

  • it looks really squeezy

  • dear santa.... just this once

  • @begforyourmasterCHN

    Ok first off learn to control your fucking population you damn communist.

    YOU GOT TO BE OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND IF YOU THINK WATCHING 5,000 PEOPLE DIE IS FUNNY. thats like me saying 5,000 Chinese Sailors died and the whole world is Rolling on the floor laughing thier fucking ass off out loud.

  • @begforyourmasterCHN Don't worry, one day your country will upgrade to row boats.

  • @scottg4520 not made of lead

  • @begforyourmasterCHN cry more

  • We should have aircraft carriers that float in air above clouds that are the same size that basically levitate.

    Now THAT would be awesome.

  • The Next US Navy Aircraft Carrier to Enter Service after the Nearly Completed USS Gerald Ford, CVN-78 has to be Given No Other Name than the USS Enterprise....

    That would Honor the Current Caretaker of the name ,the CVN-65, and her Illustrious Predecessor, the Legendary USS Enterprise CV-6.

    Those Two Ships Defined American Willpower in the Name of Adversity and Taught the World what American SeaPower and Naval Aviation Can and Will do to Maintain Peace and Strength across the World.....

  • When you think of all the brain power that goes into making these things the design engineering electical ect. They are really stunning to look at beautiful you might say, and all for one purpose to KILL ! a wee bit sad!

  • Since the Navy is soon to replace it's current aircrafts with the new F-35 Lightning II which is smaller, does this mean that the super carriers will be able to carry more than just 85 aircrafts???

  • OK, I'm confused. At 0:36 it says protection:none. Yet, at 4:30 the protection is high. Am I missing something here?

    I was really hoping to see the CV-6 Enterprise on this list. Oh well.

  • Comment removed

  • @straswa The protection they meant was "armor thicknesss". The reason the protection is high is because U.S carriers deploy with other warships that help defend the carrier. Its called a Carrier Strike Group.

  • and these

  • yeah boi were getting 2 super carriers for Britian not as big as this beast mind but 70k tons is still big we are going to have 2 strike carrier battle groups 100 JSF between them it will give us brits the power to strike hard and fast at our enemys =) i also beleive that the EU is also funding a carrier build up of 23 in total all between 60k and 90k tons UK and US are already a force to be reckoned with now were even more powerful and still allies to the end GOD BLESS UK USA AND EU

  • @iSmeLLbUd canadians actually have a surprising fleet too segragating bastard

  • @iSmeLLbUd failure..

  • @iSmeLLbUd What? Are you saying the EU is getting 23 carriers? Only France and Britain have carriers in the EU and only 1 each if I am not mistaken....

  • @ThaFunkster100 as of now mate yeah your correct but in 2020 the nations of the EU will have a force of 23 super carriers all with their own branches and Britain has only 3 carriers at the moment but they will be de commissioned when the 2 super carriers are finished building

  • @iSmeLLbUd Wow, I had no idea. that is a hell of a lot of carriers, and will they each belong to members of the EU, or will they just belong to the EU? And what about aircraft for them? Will they also belong to the EU?

  • @ThaFunkster100 neither did i till i did a bit of research and yeah they are all owned by the countries that make them but its part of a wider European arms build up and as of the planes i no that there will be the french fighter the Rafale and the JSF along with the typhoon that isnt carrier born it can be but more suited to other roles where as the JSF is pretty much made for carrier warfare theres a submarine build up aswell and more soldiers joining the Eurocorp...

  • @iSmeLLbUd yes indeed. we in the US fought against hte british twice. but after the wars were over. weve been the best of allies since

  • @iSmeLLbUd so i heard of the queen elizebeth class, and my first reaction was, HELL YA. i may be an american, but to think that finally, someone else with a super carrier, and the british! they should name one of them the victory. that would be outstanding

  • @iSmeLLbUd oi. Yes the US and the UK are the two greatest nations on earth. Gratz on your two carriers. The US may not be loyal to the crown. But you gave us our shipbuilding skills. It shows in this video =). US + UK = unstoppable force.

  • @Sumoto999 its just a shame some of your country men are to brainwashed to realize they need their allies now more than ever yet they bad mouth and disrespect the dead but those Americans like you sir who see things for what they are and not what they are told have my utmost respect and allegiance to your flag as you have mine. and i do believe that the US and the UK are sharing many military technologies with one another especially with out new super carrier strike aircraft peace to you bro..

  • @iSmeLLbUd One new Brit carrier will be immediately mothballed/unfinished/sold off...

    : (

    Chinese buyers?

  • @69wabbit The Chinese don't need to buy it. They just need to steal the blueprints and copy them. Hell, they might even throw in some lead.

  • @iSmeLLbUd Which enemies do you need to strike hard and fast at? The French? If we Americans didn't have so many carriers, maybe we wouldn't get involved in so many crappy little wars.

  • @iSmeLLbUd

    so, being the most powerful military force in the world, with weapons to kill people, is something good? did no even go to the school?

  • Comment removed

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Yes actually it is. Peace through superior firepower. Its how we won the Cold War.

  • @KiloByte69

    you are from US, because you are retarded, i think i was right, because the cold war wasn't a war, and no one won, that's why is called "cold war"

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Nobody won? Look at what happened to the Soviet Union you dumbfuck. Its called a "cold war" because there was no direct combat you ignorant fool.

  • @KiloByte69

    soviet union got destroyed because of the fall of the berlin wall, it wasn't a war

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Hmmm yeah and America had nothing to do with the Berlin Wall. Does Reagan's "Tear down this wall" speech ring any bells?

  • @KiloByte69

    no, it doesn't it was more like a cold war the action that destroyed the berlin wall, also, cold war wasn't a war

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Ok you just said the "action" of the Cold War destroyed the Berlin Wall. Who was President when the Berlin Wall fell? Reagan. He should get full credit for commmitting the US to defeating the USSR in an arms race which bankrupted them. Also, to say the Cold WAR was not a war is just rearded.

  • @KiloByte69

    wow, you got really critical mental problems, who destroyed the berlin wall? Reagan? god? Saxton Hale? no, the civils on russia, that got tyred from living there, USSR is a stupid system to live in, that is why the cold war ended, there was NO war there, no war operations, no army offensive movement, or Russian Army one, it wasn't a war

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    The Soviet Union fell because it could no longer to afford to keep up with its arms race against America, dumbfuck. Look up the definition of COLD WAR idiot, that's what it means. Get it through your fucking head.

  • @KiloByte69

    cold war ended because of the berlin wall fall, genious, soviet union sustain itself because of the fear they made to the civils, when berlin wall falls, people didn't want to stay on russia, so USSR economical system fall, and communism failed, in that moment, cold war ended

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Ok, lets just totally write off the crippling effect the arms race had on the Soviet economy, fucking idiot.

  • @KiloByte69

    do it, i read it on documentals and others of the soviet union and its falls, the soviet union ends completely at the ´93

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Thanks for completely avoiding my point. Moron.

  • @KiloByte69

    not even mention it, thanks for being an ignorant and a close mind person

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Ok now you're not even making sense. You're a fool.

  • @KiloByte69

    i am not making sense? maybe you are blind now, or you got....that eye problem that make you read weird symbols when you try to read words, because i know what i writed, and no, i am not a fool, sorry but you are wrong

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    You know what you "writed?" LOL ok then, run along now you simple minded idiot.

  • @KiloByte69

    i see you dont understand the english, may i can talk in spanish with you? or you need to talk a "derp" lenguage that i dont know?

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Yeah whatever, just keep going off topic. Its obvious your have nothing worthwile to contribue to the conversation any longer.

  • @KiloByte69

    off topic? you are the one that started with the cold war discution

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Yes that was the topic I was refering too... lol

  • @KiloByte69

    in that case, i didnt get off topic, i was talking about the cold war 2 comments ago

  • @xXxMartin96xXx

    Umm no you weren't.

  • @KiloByte69

    yes, i was, i asked if you wanted me to talk spanish because you seem to not understand me when i talk about the cold war in english

  • @KiloByte69 u dumb fuck no one won the war and the berlin wall had nothing to do with the soliviet union.

  • @Ps3Reviews40

    LOL The Berlin Wall was built by the Soviet Union you retard.

  • @KiloByte69 no it was not germany had nothing to do with russia

  • @Ps3RevieWs40

    Man you're a clueless moron.

  • @xXxMartin96xXx well have u ever stopped to think why you are free my friend ?? yes war is terrible no doubt the most old and grueling of human practices but sometimes necessary for the freedom of peoples

  • @iSmeLLbUd

    i am free because? i shouldn't be free? also, war is what, is not the same thing as freedom, it has no sense

  • @iSmeLLbUd

    Freedom is not gained by forein powers intervening but by the people in the country acting. Intervention from other countries also never occurs unless the country in question have some intrest in your country.

  • @FrUsTrIc freedom not gained by foreign intervention? Tell that one to the South Koreans!

  • @Darthbelal It was foreign intervention that started that war to begin with...

    There was no way for the South to win against the north simply because the north were backed by the USSR. If it weren't for the cold war, Korea would still have been one instead of two.

    So in your example you're right but keep in mind that foreign intervention wouldn't have been necessary if foreigners didn't nose around in areas they shouldn't have in the first place.

  • @AeroGastby Yes, frigates can be part of a Carrier Strike Group.

  • A nuclear powered nimitz aircraft carrier with 85 F15C Eagles, now we're talking!!!

  • @worldchampion1986 F-15 Can't do carriers. F-18 Can.

  • 97 000 tons of diplomacy.

  • it cant go eny were in the world the cant go into NewZealands water coz we have a nucler enything band. HA!

  • @CODfansSUCKmyBALL5 Learn grammar, you retard.

  • If you took out a Nimitz class carrier with its nuclear reactor, would that take out the rest of the fleet if they a nearby?

  • @MrAnonUK no,it won't make a nuclear explosion,like a bomb.

  • @evilmuffen117 Cheers - you learn something new every day.

  • too bad the George.W.Bush is the last Nimitz class carrier now theres gonna be a whole new class

  • @AeroGastby Not to mention the cost of its support group

  • What the heck, you don't need fighter cover over Afghanistan. The Taliban didn't even have an air force.

  • @delta5297 true. but fighters also deliver strikes to ground. aka air support etc. maybe not plane to plane conflict, but plane to ground via missile/bomb though

  • @yamahonkawazuki you're right on ground strikes. Actually they can do A/A combat too, although most countries we bomb really don't have the aircraft to even threaten us, so it's usually just the ground.
