Carriers
Harriers
Mutual synonyms
Both words in one sentence
- STOVL carriers- smaller carriers, usually carrying Harriers (so far, the only worthwhile STOVL fighter-bombers) or helicopters due to having a shorter length.
-
Is in a little bit of an embarrassing rut right now, after the SDSR 2010 removed their Harriers and left their aircraft carriers with only helicopters.
- Often their carriers have a "ski jump" ramp at the front of the flight deck, which allows Harriers (and any future STOVL aircraft) to take off with a larger payload.
