It's not just one carrier present if you're dealing with Americans. It's an entire group of ships and probably submarines. You are going to get detained, and subject to some American police brutality. China having one of its barely functional Kuznetov clones getting herded gently off into the custody of the USN will effectively then end its territorial ambitions.
I kind of wish US skipper during that destroyer incident went "brace for impact" and actually allowed collision to happen.
US has more destroyers than china, better damage control, and damage to the bow for burger ship would be significantly less dangerous than getting t-boned amidships by the chink.
All in all, the's a very decent chance that chinaman would sink, while burger woudl just require few months in drydock.
And the best part? The collision would be obviously a chinese fault , with the whole thing filmed and documented, so they woudl not be able to do shoit about that, and for the the whole drinkable water world it woud be clear that the chinese brought it ton themselves.
The face loss for bugmen would be amusing as all frick.

They can't keep getting away with it.

A couple fully loaded Supercarriers at speed? Imagine an end to homelessness and extreme poverty, or the funds to revamp our most failing schools or revive economically devastated towns and neighborhoods, perhaps much needed nationwide infrastructure repair that has been neglected for 50 year, it would be like one of those... but sinking into the ocean.
We'd get a b***hin phone video on YouTube though, vertical orientation of course.

All of those things are fricking gay compared to a Supercarrier though.

First off, 2, it was 2 crashing Supercarriers and their air wings because 150 Super Hornets do not grow on trees. Then of course their is cost of replacing them because America can't be caught flatfooted with only 9 of them so of course we'll need 2 more as quick as possible plus new air wings.
Are you really okay with, with all the social and economic problems we are suffering can you look at yourself in the fricking mirror and say "Yes, I am glad to spend a trillion dollars a year to have 11 supercarriers just sitting in the ocean and have not one, not a single one of them currently bombing Serbia" What sir I ask you is the fricking point then?
Exactly, but when you look into them both times it was destroyers acting moronic and literally sailing under the bow of the carrier and getting sliced in half.
Basically a destroyer sails behind and beside the carrier to rescue pilots if planes crash when coming in to land. If the carrier does a U-turn the destroyer ends up on the wrong side of the carrier in front of it, and has to sail across and behind the carrier. The obvious and non-moronic way to achieve this is for the destroyer to slow down and pass behind the stern of the carrier. The USS Evans way of doing this is to yeet yourself across the carrier's course in the dead of night because BRRRRRRMMMMM DESTROYER FAST.
To be fair, HMAS Melbourne cut HMAS Voyager in half in exactly the same circumstances a few years earlier so it's not a uniquely American problem, but having learned from their experience of killing 80 Australian sailors a few years ago the HMAS Melbourne had its navigation lights running at max power and gave explicit warnings again and again about the collision to the Evans when it ordered Evans to return to port guard. Despite all of this the Evans still managed to steer itself across Melbourne's course before, at the very end, making a final emergency hard turn AFTER IT HAD ALREADY CROSSED THE MELBOURNE'S COURSE SAFELY just to make ABSOLUTELY SURE that the Melbourne would hit it.
The problem for the Melbourne is that large ships don't take evasive action because
1. they're so slow that it's often pointless and they're so large that it can be dangerous, e.g. they might run aground if they're in a channel
2. if both ships take evasive action they might evade into each other's way again, so it's safer if only one ship takes evasive action and it makes sense for this to be the smaller ship
so the Melbourne is always relying on destroyers to avoid it. And for whatever reason, destroyers loved taking her BIG CARRIER BOW right in their amidships.
Oh, man, I just had a flashback to War in the Pacific. I missed out on a chance to dab on an out-of-position Japanese carrier in December '41 because some fricking destroyer got in Enterprise's way and the delay from the collision caused the enemy to slip away. Moment that fricker got towed back to Pearl I swapped the commander out of spite.
It would be extremely painful.
4u
Bad.
Kinda like this.
What happened
Collided with an aircraft carrier.
To be specific, her sister ship Formidable on the night of 15/16 December 1941 during a storm.
This should be an azur lane doujin
sexy
Planes would be catapulted into the air.

Imagine being a chink pilot and just seeing the liveleak logo pop up in all of your helmets simultaneously, Jesus.

It's understandable that he didn't, think of all the paperwork.
>stronger guardrails
not sure if that means retaliation or actually guardrails on ships, guess I'll never know since you didn't post a link
It would be the cause of many ruined careers and probably lead to jail time.

Eisenhower really was ahead of his time, thanks for that.
RIP Ike. You were too good for this shit country.

That homosexual was wrong about everything, EXCEPT for the academic elite leading the country to ruin.

Uhhhhhhh based.
No, those are for the enemy's people to eat.

We need to skin leftists like you alive.

Flexing on the poors.

>carrier on carrier
not sure, but carrier on destroyer is pretty one sided. the HMAS melbourne ate a couple.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne%E2%80%93Voyager_collision
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne%E2%80%93Evans_collision
It pisses me off that the Evans collision became an albatross for Melbourne because it was the Americans' fault anyway.
aircraft carriers are famously quick and sneaky, I'm sure the evans had no time to get out of the way after they were taken by surprise
after two collisions in five years i'm not surprised
