Nuclear propulsion (Enterprise, 1961), the US supercarrier as alliance theatre, the RN's political retreat, the Soviet Kiev/Kuznetsov path. Chinese carrier public progress, Indian and French large decks, ROK LPX/aviation debates in open press -- dated as politics, not as a building guide or a threat table.
After 1991 stays dated: 1941-12 (Pearl Harbor) in From the North Sea experiments to the Pacific and later US forward presence. Jackie Fisher / early RN (RN pioneer context) is a named witness -- The RN's early aviation-at-sea culture -- Argus as a British first. Cost band: not a war -- sailor and aircrew deaths sit on the battle pages (Midway, etc.). Encyclopedia, not a method.

Keep Who can afford a deck pinned to 1944-45 (Philippine Sea / kamikaze): Mass decks and a late reply. Aircraft carrier remains a 1918-present (as a type; decisive 1940-45) file in From the North Sea experiments to the Pacific and later US forward presence, not a playbook.
Cost, bases, escorts, and air wings -- a political-industrial threshold. History names who crossed it; this is not advice to cross it. UN carrier air in 1950-53, including Inchon's preparation. Later US decks in regional crises are alliance history -- not a current tracker.
