The first flight of an aircraft from an American vessel came in 1910. Then support your land offensive with your airplanes! Use Carriers to transport your air power over the ocean and to coasts which you can't otherwise reach. In Brave New World there are special promotions available for the Carrier which allow it to carry more aircraft and defend better against attacks. Defensively, however, the Carrier is weak and should be escorted by Destroyers and Submarines.
Such is its importance that most modern commanders form their fleets around Carriers. The Carrier itself is unable to attack, but the aircraft it carries make it the most powerful offensive tactical weapon afloat. Its development allows a nation to bring its air power in the sea, and deliver it to any point of the map where needed. The Carrier is a specialized vessel which offers a base of operations for fighter airplanes and bombers (but not Stealth Bombers).
