If Brazil need to buy an aircraft carrier what it will be?

#1 Post by Biancini1995 »

I want to know from some guys who may know something about this theme so...

Let's imagine Brazil needs to buy an aircraft carrier when build an aircraft carrier their own is not possible at the moment what CV will be?

My suggestion it maybe can be an Forrestal Class or it maybe the Kitty Hawk Class what do you guys think?

I'd bet on a Charles de Gaulle-sized conventionally powered ship, although nuclear propulsion wouldn't be beyond their means 10 or 20 years from now.

Right now they have one of France's old carriers, the Foch, which they incidentally just bought.

If they wanted a state-of-the-art carriers I suggest teaming up with the Indians, who are building one in addition to refitting the old Admiral Gorshkov and the ancient Vikrant. They are the B and the I in BRIC after all.

I would guess something like what the Italians have or something like the new British and French carriers. Possibly anything in between.
