航空母舰是以舰载机作为主要武器,并作为其海上活动基地的大型水面军舰。它担负的主要任务是攻击敌水面舰艇、潜艇和运输船,袭击海岸设施和陆上目标,夺取作战海区的制空权和制海权。大型航空母舰一般载有各种作战飞机80至120架,具有齐全的作战能力,可控制半径约300海里的海域。 The aircraft carrier is a large-scale surface warship that uses the carrier-based aircraft as its main weapon and serves as its maritime activity base. Its main tasks are to attack enemy surface ships, submarines and transport ships, attack coastal facilities and land targets, and to seize the air supremacy and sea authority in the combat sea area. Large aircraft carriers generally carry 80 to 120 aircraft of all types of combat aircraft. They have full operational capabilities and can control sea areas with a radius of approximately 300 nautical miles.
