Aircraft carrier is the pinnacle of both aviation and naval technologies. It’s the most complex, powerful, and scary creation of war industry. Welcome to the list of best aircraft carrier games where you can operate this monster.
Aircraft carrier is a warship that serves as a seagoing airbase. Having a super mobile airbase is the perfect weapon for global powers such as USA,
An aircraft carrier is the flagship of a fleet and protected by other ships at the sea. Because it has a unique purpose and much more valuable.
All in all, it’s the largest, most complex, and the most fascinating type of warship.

4. World of Warships
5. War on the Sea
6. Hearts of Iron IV
The game is set in WW2. Just like today, only a handful of nations have access to aircraft carriers in HOI4. Those nations are USA, UK, and Japan. Though Japan has very few.
Carriers are a game changer in naval battles of HOI4. Especially on pacific theater. Besides they can help with naval invasions and land battles that are close to the shore.
One must protect carriers with various fleets, build carrier specific aircrafts, and have enough oil to operate overseas. It’s very costly but definitely worth having.
7. Rise of Nations
Aircraft carrier is my favorite and possibly the best unit in the Rise of Nations. Funny thing about Rise of Nations is the fact that you start the game in stone age and then progress enough to build carriers and nukes.
Just look out for submarines because they heavily counter aircraft carriers in this game. Pro tip: Destroyers counter submarines.
The game is very balanced until someone hits enlightenment age before the others and utilize modern war machines.
