Flying aircraft carriers
Could the US ever build one? If so, would it be any useful? Could it turn the tide of a war?
-
As I recall, the US did try this back in the 30's with a pair of Airships. Held a few fighters, which were recovered by matching airspeeds with the Airship, then flying the fighter onto a hook on the ship's underbelly. Needless to say, they were beset by all the same problems that saw the death of rigible airships.
