The aircraft carrier grew from 1918-22 experiments (HMS Argus, Hosho, Langley) into the Pacific war's decisive capital ship. Taranto (1940) and Pearl Harbor showed the type's reach; Midway showed that carriers could destroy each other without sighting a battleship. This page is that history -- not a deck-cycle or navigation manual.

The US Essex class and then Forrestal-to-Nimitz "supercarriers" made the type a political object: a sovereign airfield that can sit off a coast. Britain's retreat from large-deck aviation (CVA-01 cancelled, Invincible-class VTOL, then Queen Elizabeth) is a fiscal-political story. Soviet/Russian and later Chinese carriers are a different design culture (ski-jump, then catapult experiments).

English memory is Midway films and a city-sized US deck. Korean memory is Inchon's carrier air (1950) and later alliance decks in nearby seas -- plus a domestic debate about aviation ships that this page will not umpire as a live programme. TechShift is high; intensity is that of a type, not a war.
