can't wait for the inevitable "WHY DO WE EVEN USE CARRIERS ANYMORE? THEY'RE WORTHLESS!" posts when it breaks down during shakedown testing

>>33598385

Whats the point in carriers, the North Koreans have loads of subs, the fighter jets will do jack shit.

So is this the new equivalent of

>OP: "we should bring back Iowas and make them BBGs or BBGNs"

>Anon1: "battleships are obsolete"

>Anon2: "it would be horribly cost-ineffective because [logical technical and industrial science]"

>OP: (autistic screeching)

Yeah pretty much. We even have a US carrier boatgirl (Saratoga) to derail the threads just like we do with the Iowashitters.

>hangar

Fuck, shouldn't post during dinner.

>>33601112

very nice

>>33600927

The Tomahawks barely doing their jobs just added fuel to the Iowa fire.

We should make 16 inch missiles.

>>33601112
my condolences

Why do we even use carriers anymore? They are worthless!

It did kind of suck, standing outside in the freezing wind for 2 hours, and then standing in the crowded hangar for another two hours for Trump to make a 15 minute speech.

At least we didn't have to wear our PPE.

>>33601211
Well? What'd he say? Spill the beans

>>33601624
Same old, same old. Rah rah rah American manufacturing, rah rah rah navy strength,
rah rah rah 12 carrier fleet.

>>33601645
sucks to be a landlocked second world country huh?

>>33598420
MSM is using this meme now, they are detailing the cost of the Tomahawk Missiles used in the Syria strike and listing all the other things the money could've been spent on including, I shit you not, welfare for Syrian refugees. I don't know about the US but in Canada it was revealed recently that they're giving upwards of 40k a year to each refugee family.

>>33601755
which country?

>detailing the cost of the Tomahawk Missiles used in the Syria strike and listing all the other things the money could've been spent on including, I shit you not, welfare for Syrian refugees

Are we talking about the missiles that WE ALREADY FUCKING OWNED? Those media kikes will never give up, will they?

>>33601988
They got around that by saying it as "the cost to replace the missiles".

>>33601988

>Yes let's just magically turn the tomahawks back into money!

These people are fucking retarded, it's sunk money might as well use it.
