That is true but the US is also building aircraft designed to use a ski-jump, the F-35B, it could choose to have a different mix of carrier types.

- nradov 7y agoThe US already has a mix of different carrier types such as the LHDs that can operate F-35Bs. Those don't have ski jumps, but they make only a marginal difference anyway. So what are you proposing exactly? The F-35B has very limited range and payload so it can't do much compared to a real carrier air wing.
