SeaDart SeaplaneFighter Threat to Aircraft Carrier Racket

Once the era of the bloated supercarrier is brought to an end by American stupidity;

world navies will relearn that its desirable to have EVERY surface ship carry its own air cover in the form of a seaplane fighter...

http://www.combatreform.org/seaplanefighters.htm

...like the supersonic Convair SeaDart shown here or the STOVL F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter that with light air-to-air armaments can take-off vertically from the stern flight decks of even the smallest frigate.

F-35Bs can even insert/extract commandos using Ground Resupply Insertion/Extraction (GRIER) pods--all we need is a Navy that is willing to innovate and be the BEST that would buy "B" model JSFs and operate them from Aegis-equipped Burke class destroyers, Ticonderoga class cruisers and yes--Iowa class battleships that need to be reclaimed from the let's-dwell-in-the-past-and-hide-from-the-present-and-future WW2 nostalgia clubs that have them now as shrines to values we refuse to live by today.

Americans need to wake up to the fact that RACKETEERING--is the universal way humans behave in all walks of life and doesn't stop when you put an uniform on, it just takes on a smokescreen of red, white and blue patriotically correct fascism which explains the troubling quote; "patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel". Neither is a bloated surface navy without any air cover from multiple sea mine, torgedo, and missile attacks.

The question of suitability of this aircraft and comparing it to others is immaterial. America possesses many types of aircraft and each one meets a different need. I can see the usefulness of this type of plane which can be kept in a seclude environment for a particular purpose (examples; espoinage, undercover missions, etc.)

@ericartwo1 The American carrier navy has no ASW planes...no long endurance scouts...no CAS types....it's asking to be sunk by PGMs. So its not "immaterial" when our quantity and quality of sea aircraft is deficient.

hmmm I'll have to think about it more.

I suppose that aircraft carriers can resupply and turnaround far greater numbers of aircraft in shorter times. So it depends on your goals, if the aim was to take out a single frigate one on one, then yes, the sea-dart with air to surface missiles is the way to go. If you want sustained air to air coverage over great distances in a multiple threat environment, then the carrier seems like the way to go.

Your posts are GREAT thanx again!!

The demise of the flying boat & seaplane was a very sad one. I suppose in the future we will have spacecraft fighters on board a sort aircraft space station that could reach any trouble spot on earth with 90 minutes. Present day air carriers are a bit of a conundrum. The ships carry very fast supersonic planes, but the ships the ships themselves can barely do 40 knots, taking a long time to reach a target. The best solution is of course would be to have peace, but the military won't like that.

@lavers13 NOT. If the carrier is sUNK nothing is going to fly off them. Placing all our aircraft on a few bloated carriers is fatal in the PGM age. If we want to survive on the sea surface we will need seaplane fighters---a lot of them.

@strikedizzle Beats the SALVAGE of the ships that will be sunk by PGMs without them.

@Lizzard343 READ WEB PAGES offered as links in video description for details.

[Lizzard343]

I don't see how this will replace carriers, elaborate, please?

Why should every ship in the fleet carry a single fighter?

[strikedizzle]

Imagine the maintenance on that thing.

[dynmicpara]

The point of seaplanes is to GET MORE AIRCRAFT into the air to have a chance to survive against air, surface, undersurface and land threats. Not willing to do this, you are asking for defeat at sea from PGMs. Be careful what you wish for.
