...I was perusing a book at the library before work on the history of carrier warfare, and the best part of it was that only about half of it was on WWII. The rest mostly centered on the 50s through the 80s, and the advancements in carriers that brought us to where we are now.
One thing the author seemed to really be peeved about, though, was that the US gave up a fair amount of it's conventional carriers during the Clinton Administration (I don't think the author likes Democrats). This got me thinking: of all the carrier types built after 1944 (we'll let 1945 count), which one would probably be best as a marketable fixed wing CTOL export carrier, and what would be a good airwing for it?
Also...I expect a listing of what countries you'd expect to be able to buy this little gem...
