type 076 may be even larger than the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier.

Yes - Type 003 has exceeded the size of most of US midsize carriers (Midway, Coral Sea etc. and today's Gerald R. Ford class) which were roughly 300 meters in length and ~45,000 tons displacement. Type 076 is about the size (~260 meters) of the smaller US Essex class carriers listed below (which were succeeded by Forrestal, Kitty Hawk and Enterprise classes - Enterprise being the first class with Nuclear propulsion and it and anything bigger are called super carrier).

USS Yorktown (CV-10)
USS Intrepid (CV-11)
USS Hornet (CV-12)
USS Lexington (CV-16)

Of course Nuclear powered carriers like the Nimitz class are quite a bit larger.

Chinese aircraft carriers (esp. Type 003) are comparable to midsize US carriers, Indian carriers are much smaller. Matrix below is a bit old though.

Brahmos has 4000 KM range now? Wow!

I said that Dhanoa sir said that during the exercise Gagan Shakti, India hit a target 4000 k.m from Indian soil. It can be a combination of stand off capability combined with mid air refueling. You can achieve it through supplementary drop tank and long range air to surface stand off cruise missile.

Now Islam itself on borrowed time in Iran bhai. It's hard to find a muslim/ Islam supporter these days.

As soon as they step foot outside Iran, they are persecuted immediately by the majority who want Islam banished from Iran.

Never met a muslim Irani yet outside of Iran.

Is Gerald R Fordv45000 ton weight class carrier?
So far as I know, it is a 100000 ton carrier with nuclear powered engines.
 
Hard to believe anybody praising aircraft carriers when its fukkin 2025 no?

Iran's been deliberately holding back in sinking these relics to avoid a big war......

Ain't nuthhin else to look here folks.....

What's obsolete is obsolete no? just like armor, manned aircraft and manned surface/ underwater assets......

USN carriers have made no diff in Houthi's destroying commercial shipping in da red sea, despite the best efforts of the western world.

If yous don't got AI 'drones' to do yer dirty work today......good luck to you man.......lol

Think about it. If Israel had an aircraft carrier...🤣🤣🤣
 
When and by whom? Only the Houthis would potentially. Iran wouldn’t risk it.
Iran the only one helping the Houthi's no?......who else bhai?

Hezb is strong too and reconstituting itself every day and Iran's doing its best to make that happen.

Syria was the bad apple in da middle, but by no means its over yet. Iran can get back into Syria again, no problem......but that is a political decision up to the IRGC.
