Super Carriers:  Aircraft Carriers of the 21st Century

As the Royal Navy's new super carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth, sails to Far East, this new publication will look at the latest developments in aircraft carrier technology.
 
Navies around the world are investing in newer, bigger and better aircraft carriers to project power at sea. Nine navies currently operate flat tops that can launch fast jets into action and more fleets want to join this exclusive club.
