Present and future of aircraft carriers as a floating diplomatic and military means of deterrence
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
The aircraft carrier is the most capable offshore military warship the mankind has ever build and is considered as a symbol of the absolute navy and national strenght. Construction of an aircraft carrier is having a great impact on country`s industry and economy – the production will involve thousands of components developed, produced, transported and assembled by indigenous factories. Building such a huge vessel promotes national industry and increase new job opprtunities. Therefore, development and construction of an aircraft carrier depends on strong economy and industry potential. This article deals with current and future projects of this „floating diplomatic and military means of deterrence“ and points out on main criteria in decision making process when choosing new carrier designs.
