No its would be too expensive plus it gives UK ship makers carrier buiding experience and allows the navy to develop the infrastructure for its own carriers
Comment from : Dapper Raccoon69

Its interesting why brits stay with the jump-catapult system and chose f-35 B for their completely new aircraft carrier instead of going for traditional system

What are the ‚unique needs‘?

I‘m not the biggest STOVL fan, they should have built a Charles de Gaulle carrier the size of QE Originally Charles de Gaulle was supposed to be bigger but various difficulties like cost, facilities to build it, and the usual political bickering, have made it what it is now, excellent after all And adjusted for its age, arguably better than the QE for a mid-range power like the UK and France

Ewww ramps how ghetto

As a former Navy Nuke, giving them the Entreprise would be like selling your friend a kick in their balls
Comment from : Beisht Kione

Non American carriers are a joke The USS Enterprise however, was also a joke Adm Rickover's joke
Comment from : Beisht Kione

Ño, the enterprise is only ONE ship, when it is/was in refit , the UK would have NO carriers
Comment from : patdbean

Only an American could seriously ask if the British might have been better buying the US Navy's banged up old pile of junk instead of building their own modern carrier Wtf?
Comment from : Heart Of Darkness

650 reasons why
Comment from : Popeye

I think the Queen Elizabeth class is a more modern carrier than Entreprise Maintenance on an old ship such as Entreprise would have been extremely costly and unreliable The British are way better of with their own Carrier

😊 NOT FOR BRITAIN'S NAVY 😊

Big E was 50 years old that’s alot for a salt water ship when retired though I’d love to see her a museum someday,
Comment from : Rick Sadler

The navy just need more money but we are small and dont have the money to have a masive navy
Comment from : domm 96

Different needs different requirements
Comment from : Jarvis Brown

I believe our allies are better off investing in their own industries because instead of being entirely dependent on US The British building their own Carrier gave their engineers the experience they need to develop more carriers in the future And as long as they keep building their ships in England, their workforce will continue gaining experience brbrThats a key factor to winning wars Not just having the equipment to fight it but the knowledge to build the equipment
Comment from : TheGunningRunner

One reason they didn’t go nuclear with the carrier is some countries won’t allow nuclear vessels in their ports and territories The RN have nuclear subs but they serve a different purpose than the carriers so not the same concern

British tech is always unique
Comment from : Kumar Andisamy

Yes and no
Comment from : Cole Karrh

Royal Navy is now useless XD
Comment from : Arshdeep Singh

The QE is better for the Royal Navy requirement, but already many are saying the CATOBAR and F-35C would have been a better option
Comment from : bill ballbuster

The QE class of aircraft carriers are great and built in the UK, the big E was a great ship, but past its day now for a blue water navy, plus I don't see anyone rushing to buy it!!
Comment from : Glastonbury

Great Britain's royal navy will always rule the waves rule britannia 💪🇬🇧
Comment from : visible to anyone on YouTube

It spent billions in English salaries
Comment from : Lawrence Ralph

The biggest problem is the uss enterprise would of never fit into portsmouth harbour
Comment from : Tom Mallory

Not even close !

GOD SAVE the KING 👑 THE Royal NAVY Has A Excellent NAVY !!!!!!!!!
Comment from : Tom Flendodo

That little ramp is cute
Comment from : Donald McTrump

As an American, the Royal Navy choose the right decision to develop their own carrier It continues to support local defense industry and maintains domestic independence US nuclear-powered carriers are expensive and even more so to operate The Big E is an old design which mean even more maintenance and operational costs
Comment from : CZseventyfive

You kind of ignored the elephant in the room Enterprise was launched in 1960! Would you buy a 60 year old Manhattan taxi? The old girl had a LOT of miles on her
Comment from : Thurman Mayo

If it would have been practical for CVN 65 Enterprise to remain in service, it would still be in service The QE class carriers were designed by the Brits to fit their needs and budget CVN 65 would have met neither for them
Comment from : Jack Rembold

Besides, everything on the Enterprise is written in American English The switch could be dangerous
Comment from : Agustin Gonzalez

Uss enterprise was a 50 year old rust bucket Americans serving on the Elizabeth class said the ship was way ahead of any carrier America had
Comment from : Freedom for all

I don’t think we sell our carriers If we were going to buy all means, England can buy one, but I don’t think we sell them to anybody you have to develop your own
Comment from : survivalSC

No As fantastic a ship as she was, the enterprise was knackered She'd served the US faithfully for a long time but she was worn out and done
Comment from : Nathan Parry

They couldnt afford the upkeep
Comment from : Eric Ellert

This is a truly ridiculous video, the QE carriers are far far superier in technology, far safer and more modern Yeah the enterprise holds more aircraft but in reality that is so irrelevant when were talking about 5th generation fighters and the other capabilites that come off the flight deck Honestly what a ridiculous videobrbrShould we sniff our own poo instead of watch this random waffle?
Comment from : Lewis

The Entterprise would soon celebrate her 70th birthday in service So judging by 70 years of tevhnological progress: the QE class is way, WAY more capable per ton
Comment from : TheNecromancer6666

Lot of bla bla, lies, lies In reality it came down to maintaining the British military industrial complex
Comment from : Adam Orick

Absurd suggestion
Comment from : Brett Mitchell

Past capacity? brLost French support? brbrThe Royal Navy tonnage exceeds that of France, Germany and Spain combined brbrAdd the King’s warships from the Royal Navies of Canada, Australia and New Zealand, tonnage is higher than the whole of Europe’s navies combined
Comment from : Brett Mitchell

Are the QE class carriers better than the Enterprise? Yes and no Depends greatly upon who's perspective you want to answer that question from? For the needs of the Royal Navy; most likely yes, but for the needs of another country, probably not "Better" is a highly relative term, & what is "better" depends greatly upon what your total goals are
Comment from : mikeycrabtree123

Absolutely
Comment from : Rob Burden

Why would they want to buy a 50 year old ship? There’s a reason it was being decommissioned
Comment from : MARK CORBETT

We wouldn't have been able to buy the Enterprise anyway
Comment from : Ben Grainger

what a fucking pointless vid you clown the enterprise is an outdated ship that the US NAVY DOES NOT WANT
Comment from : Catford

More foodbanks than McDonalds and the UK still finds the money for aircraft carriers !!
Comment from : iedco4

As you just stated the Queen Elizabeth class air craft carrier was built specifically for the needs of the UK so yes for those reasons only it has to be better
Comment from : asap

The royal navy should not have sold their heli carrier to egypt or brazil
Comment from : Jack Lastimosa

Named after a witch
Comment from : Kenneth Hudson

The USS Enterprise was over 50 years old and had reached its useful life span If it was still useful the USN would have kept it in service
Comment from : Gary Holt

Plus they use metric, we use standard measurements
Comment from : gary mathena

You didn't have to make a whole video just to answer the question with the word "no"
Comment from : wyldhowl

Do they have better loo roll? That greese paper is smering cloths!
Comment from : scott brown

No, the British have the ability to build nuke powered carriers but face a huge uphill battle in development cost The QE is a great choice for them
Comment from : Robert Rider

They should have retrofitted the Enterprise 2 birds with one stone:)
Comment from : dnate697

Always fun to see subsidies play big
Comment from : Talleywa

Short answer No
Comment from : NOODLES

They have a bar on board so yes
Comment from : Ryan Southworth

We have an Enterprise in the fleet now
Comment from : Paul Cock

A fucking ramp
Comment from : DarkMatter

Yes the QEs are a lot better
Comment from : EFFEZE6280

Old as it was, the Big E had more fire power that both British carriers combined but the Big E was already 50 years old and the Royal Navy requires a system developed for its specific requirements
Comment from : Alfonso Rodriguez

No it would take to much money to refit it would be cheaper to build a new ship than refurbish the Enterprise
Comment from : Matthew Weekes

The USS Enterprise was an amazing achievement But 50 years of use wears out a ship
Comment from : YouTube Sketches

CVN 65, the first nuclear carrier, was commissioned in 1961 Not a Nimitz class carrier Retired because no longer suitable for action Not a serious question
Comment from : James W

Strip down the super structure and rebuild it as a battleship with four or more 16in turrets! Hellva fire support ship ! even nuclear powered!
Comment from : Douglas Miller

Enterprise was pretty much worn out when they retired her She still sits at Newport News shipbuilding and dry dock
Comment from : Dar Ploin

I sailed around the world on the Big EbrShe was more than a match for the entire British navy, even if the entire French navy was helping
Comment from : Bill M

The UK doesn’t have enough planes to fill the Enterprise 😂
Comment from : John Clements

Naaa, the QE is a nice compliment to the existing International fleet brought to bear by Western Civilization against her enemies Still, got to get those catapults installed if she ever hopes to be everything she was designed to be
Comment from : Joseph DESTAUBIN

The USS Enterprise was obsolete, and needed to be replaced
Comment from : Barry Fletcher

Type 26 frigate most successful export frigates
Comment from : AAA

Why buy us ships which even us navy don't want
Comment from : AAA

So much for ‘Mission First’brbrIf all those excuses left the Brits with a more capable AC, we’ll good for thembrbrWe all know that isn’t the casebrbrThey’d have had a higher functioning AC at a lower price and faster turnaround
Comment from : William Foote

The Enterprise is spent It would cost more to refurb it than a new carrier Also, the Enterprise was a test bed and has a lot of one-off equipment, a variety of hatches, and other devices that did not catch on
Comment from : RedLeader

No They would have been better off buying one of the old Constellation class! They were oil fired
Comment from : ed trine

The QE2 and POW are the best sailing vessels on this planet There’s nothing more advanced or built by people with such a rich history of naval experience They are perfect the way the way they are and the yank boats have everything spelled incorrectly and everything’s built for fat fucks Would be very uncomfortable for Humans
Comment from : Aka company credit card

ENTERPRISE, wasvtired and the metal was at its end of usability 52 years old its due its rest

The enterprise although when first entered service was mighty is now outdated old and beaten the Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales are new modern the embodiment of modern naval warfare
