"What exactly is a capital ship? By almost any definition of a capital ship the battleship
fits the requirements. The requirements of a capital ship must include, at the very least, its
ability to protect sea lines of communication, its ability to exert sea control within a given region
by fighting force-on-force and defeating the enemy when necessary, and its ability to symbolize
a nation’s determination to fight and win in peacetime and war; the battleship fulfilled all of
these.2
But when looking at the post-battleship navies for a replacement capital ship there is only
one that can meet all of these requirements and that is the aircraft carrier. However, an aircraft
carrier’s abilities as a capital ship are primarily measured in airpower vice the size of her guns,
displacement, or thickness of armor. For no matter how thick the armor is or how fast the carrier
can go if it cannot launch aircraft it becomes no more useful than a target barge. This is an
important distinction because the battleship could take a large amount of damage and continue to
fight, whereas the aircraft carrier must be able to launch aircraft in order to be effective.
Therefore, much more so than a battleship, an aircraft carrier must rely on an assortment of other
ships to provide direct defense against threats such as anti-ship missiles and torpedoes.
Hence, a
carrier needs screening vessels to protect it from getting directly involved in a battle"https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/AD1023222.pdfΕσύ σίγουρα σπούδασες κάτι από αυτά, ή wikipedia μόνο; Γιατί κάποιοι τα μάθαμε σε Σχολές αυτά...
