> Can a 15,000 ton ship carry Tomcats ? E2's ?
I've asked this question before but never gotten an answer. What's the
smallest size carrier that could carry, launch, and recover any of the
aircraft types _normally carried and operationally used_ by the
supercarriers? (The numbers of aircraft could be considerably smaller,
of course.) What type of aircraft sets the limit?
