“Flota de Portaaviones” translates to “Aircraft Carrier Fleet” in English. It refers to a collection of aircraft carriers operated by a navy, which serve as a central element of maritime power projection. An aircraft carrier is a large naval vessel capable of carrying, launching, and recovering aircraft, effectively functioning as a mobile airbase at sea. The fleet typically includes multiple carriers, each supported by a variety of escort ships, submarines, and logistical vessels to ensure operational capability and protection. The concept emphasizes not just the individual carriers but the coordinated use of these vessels to maintain air superiority, conduct naval operations, and support ground forces. The presence of a carrier fleet is often a strategic asset, allowing for rapid deployment of air power and influence in various regions around the world.
