The Multipurpose Aircraft Carrier Atlantic is the largest warship in Latin America, belonging to the Brazilian Navy, but the title of the largest warship in the world goes to the USS Gerald R. Ford.
With a length of 333 meters and a width of 41 meters, the United States Navy ship can accommodate 4,500 people, in addition to 90 aircraft and helicopters.
Traveling at just over 30 knots, the Gerald R. Ford is equipped with four MK-38 Mod 2 25 mm machine gun systems, two Rolling Airframe missile launchers, two MK-29 ESSM launchers, and three Homeport MK-15 20 mm Phalanx CIWS. Recently, the vessel was sent to the Eastern Mediterranean to support Israel against the Hamas group.
Apesar da minha ignorância sobre o assunto, acho que o navio está sendo sub-aproveirado. Aeronáutica, ou Marinha deveriam possuir pelo menos 4 aviões de decolage vertical para compor a força de ataque, e defesa da embarcação.
Toda sucata dos melhores acaba nesta ****
Naviozinho de 200 metros impressiona? Kkkkkkkkk, me poupe.
