Why The US Navy Has Exactly 11 Carriers (Not 10, Not 12)
In this episode of Navy Decoded, we break down the "Rule of Thirds" and reveal why the United States Navy operates exactly 11 aircraft carriers. It’s not about budget limits or firepower—it’s about a cycle of maintenance, training, and deployment that allows for zero margin of error.
We take you inside the "Death Spiral" that occurred when the fleet dropped to 10 ships, forcing sailors into 9-month deployments and breaking the human beings behind the machine. From the dry docks of Newport News where ships are literally cut in half (RCOH), to the "coffin lockers" where exhausted sailors sleep, this is the hidden industrial reality of American sea power.

Discover the reality of the fleet: The US Navy currently operates the Nimitz-class and Gerald R. Ford-class supercarriers. But with rising tensions in the Red Sea and the Pacific, the logistics of keeping these floating cities operational has never been more critical.
