What about the absence of skilled sailors and pilots? This is even less of a problem.

Because what we have to control now is not the high-precision weapons of the 22nd century, which are full of futuristic science fiction, but just the old antiques of one or two hundred years ago.

Since in the years of World War I and World War II, those conscripts who did not have much education could be mastered in military training to catch ducks on the shelves, and when compulsory education is popularized, the rate of college admission is more than 70%, and there are various advanced simulators to assist today, it is theoretically not impossible to train a sufficient number of sailors and pilots within a year and a half.

And even if it is impossible, human beings can only make a desperate bet, because the people of the earth are not facing the upgraded versions of the "First World War" and the "Second World War", but the war of destruction, the war of catastrophe, and the war of doomsday that are a hundred times more terrible than the "Third World War".

Earthlings cannot stand idly by as monsters wreak havoc on the oceans and cut off the maritime lifeline of the global economy.

You can't sit still and wait for the anti-gravity organs in the monster's body to evolve more and more mature, and one day, it will be enough to support the monster's huge body and march to land.

At the critical moment of the life and death of the entire civilization, the loss of personnel and materials caused by insufficient training and hasty entry into battle is within the tolerable range no matter how much - anyway, the essence of "low-tech warfare" is that ants bite and kill elephants, and the casualties of "ants" are something that has been foreseen for a long time.

"Within a year, mobilize all the world's steel, oil and heavy industry resources to build 500 aircraft carrier formations to protect the safety of the world's maritime transportation routes!"

In accordance with this guiding idea, the Earth Army threw out such a heart-wrenching slogan.

The 500 aircraft carrier formations sound completely devoid of military common sense and whimsical fantasies.

However, with careful calculation, there is not necessarily no hope of 1% realization under the premise that human civilization can control the world's resources and recruit and mobilize the best workers, engineers, warriors and commanders at will.

The most important thing is that the requirements for these "five hundred aircraft carriers" are not too high, and it can even be said that there are no requirements at all, as long as propeller fighters and first-generation jet fighters can take off and land.

As early as more than 200 years ago, in 1917, the Britons converted a passenger ship under construction "Calibin" into the first aircraft carrier "Hundred-Eyed Giant" with an all-access flight deck in human history, with a standard displacement of 14,450 tons and 20 aircraft.

By 1918, the Britons began to build the first real aircraft carrier "Athletic", which was 182 meters long, with a full load displacement of 13,200 tons, and could carry 20 fighters, but because of the pioneering technology, it required a lot of experiments, and the construction progress was slow, and it was not completed until 1923.

At this time, the Fuso people came from behind and successfully built the "Fengxiang" aircraft carrier.

With a length of 165 meters, a displacement of 10,600 tons, and a capacity of 21 fighters, the Fengxiang was completed and commissioned in 1922, with a construction period of just over two years.

You must know that at that time, although Britain was still the hegemon of the sea, and Fuso was also on the road to rise, these two countries were not the world's largest industrial powers at that time.

In particular, after the completion of the rise, Fusang's resources and industrial accumulation are quite poor, and the average annual steel output is probably not as good as a county in the east.

So, how does the real global industrial hegemon behave in terms of the speed of building aircraft carriers?

Only twenty years later, in the Second World War, when the real global industrial hegemon was bitten hard by Fuso and made up his mind to open firepower, from 1941 to 1945, in just over four years, a total of 147 fleet aircraft carriers, light aircraft carriers and escort aircraft carriers were produced. Crushed all the way through.

These examples fully illustrate that even with the level of science and technology, industrial strength, and the amount of resources explored in the world in the early 20th century, the construction of several hundred aircraft carriers in a few years is an achievable goal.

Not to mention, with the advanced technology of the 22nd century and the unrivaled industrial strength, we will integrate global resources to build hundreds of aircraft carriers like "Hundred-Eyed Giant, Athletic God, and Fengxiang".

This is because in the fifty or sixty years after the Second World War, another and even more terrifying super industrial overlord from the East was born!

The Western industrial hegemon in World War II, even at its peak, had a population of only 130 million and an annual steel output of only 81.32 million tons.

And the industrial hegemons of the East in the new era, at their peak, produced more than 100,000 tons of steel annually, and their monthly output accidentally exceeded the peak annual output of the Western hegemons in World War II, and this figure is far from the limit - not that it cannot produce more, but that it is not necessary to produce more.

It is not difficult to imagine that when the industrial hegemons of the 21 st century are in full swing, the military readiness potential of the Western industrial hegemons during World War II will burst out when the industrial hegemons of the East are at full fire.

This is indeed the case.

There are two peaks in the modern military history of mankind in shipbuilding.

The first is the Western industrial hegemon during World War II, which built nearly 150 aircraft carriers in just four or five years.

The second is that in the middle of the 21st century, before the era of calamity, humanity was on the verge of a "third world war" due to the escalation of all-out commercial wars.

At that time, the Western powers still had military superiority, especially at sea.

In order to smooth out the military gap at sea, the hegemon of the East has built and commissioned all the warships required by more than 20 aircraft carrier formations in just ten years!

You must know that the aircraft carrier in the mid-21st century is not an old antique that was casually modified by merchant ships a hundred years ago, and propeller fighters could take off and land on the deck, and the defense power was almost zero.

It is the ultimate decisive weapon with nuclear power, electromagnetic catapult, supersonic heavy fighters capable of taking off and landing, and advanced electronic warfare capabilities, and is the crystallization of human civilization's science and technology, industry, wisdom and courage!

Of course, the advent of the era of calamity, natural and man-made disasters on a global scale, caused all mankind to fall into a catastrophe, but also forcibly interrupted the confrontation between the East and the West.

One hundred years later, the Earth Alliance was founded, and the contradictions between East and West were eliminated, at least superficially, and they were able to bring together each other's industrial, technological and resource integration capabilities to join forces to take on the most formidable enemies - including, but not limited to, monsters.

In this regard, it is not the speed of shipyard construction that is holding back, but the speed of training of sailors and pilots - although it is enough to fly propeller fighters and first-generation jet fighters, it is still beyond the limits of the full capacity of the Earth Army to fill the entire 500 aircraft carrier formations and constantly replenish the brutal battle damage.

At this moment, all shipyards around the world are firing at full fire, and at the same time, there are already hundreds of aircraft carrier formations cruising on the ocean.

Most of these so-called aircraft carriers are civilian transport ships, which can accommodate the most classic aircraft carrier design in human history, and then optimize them with the advanced technology of the 22 nd century, which can roughly bring into play the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers in the early days of World War II, and may be slightly inferior in terms of optoelectronic and radar systems.

If it is used to deal with "real aircraft carriers", such as the models designed and produced by the Eastern hegemon in the middle of the 21 st century in order to cope with World War III, I am afraid that a nuclear-powered electromagnetic catapult supercarrier equipped with fifth- and sixth-generation aircraft will be able to kill these brand-new antiques, along with the propeller fighters and first-generation jet fighters moored on their decks.

However, it is the monsters that are to be dealt with now, and it is just right to use these brand new old antiques.

Because the technical content of these so-called aircraft carriers is so low that the military is embarrassed to call them aircraft carriers.

Therefore, in public propaganda, these behemoths are often referred to as "large flat-topped boats, special fishery administration vessels, ocean-going fishing vessels, offshore fish processing plants, scientific research ships" or something.

There is another point to consider, these "special fishery ships" in the cruel war, the battle loss rate will never be low, now according to the "military production of 500 aircraft carriers a year" caliber to publicize, although it is very morale-boosting, but in case of a bloody battle with the monster one day, the monster overturned a dozen or twenty aircraft carriers, how to publicize it?

Therefore, in order to avoid being slapped in the face in the future, it is better to keep a low profile for the time being, just the "special fishery administration ship", in a sense, this name is more appropriate - their combat goal is indeed to catch some never-before-seen "big fish" from the deep sea!
