- Supercarrier is an unofficial descriptive term for the largest type of aircraft carrier, usually displacing over 65,000 long tons. The U.S. Navy currently has 10 such ships. In comparison, a few countries operate what are, by today's standards, medium carriers (fleet carrier) of around 42,000 tons, such as the French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle (R91). The size and configuration of the Charles de Gaulle corresponds closely with the 45,000-ton Midway class the United States built at the end of World War II as a successor class to the much more numerous 27,000-ton Essex-class aircraft carrier, mainstay vessels of WWII after 1943 when they entered service. Internationally, light carriers closer to 20,000 tons (such as HMS Illustrious) are more typical. The United Kingdom has two Queen E

Internationally, light carriers closer to 20,000 tons (such as HMS Illustrious) are more typical. The United Kingdom has two Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers currently under construction, the first of which is expected to be delivered in 2016. They will displace 70,600 metric tons (up from an original estimate of 65,000) and, when built, will be the third largest Supercarrier class in service. Supercarriers are the largest warships ever built, eclipsing even the largest battleship class laid down by any country.

Supercarriers contain a ship and items hangar in which the owning corporation can store combat equipment. In material costs, a supercarrier costs around 15 billion ISK to make. This cost is considerably higher if one has to invest in the BPO's (Blueprint Originals) necessary for construction. Construction of a supercarrier takes approximately 3-4 weeks. Supercarriers, along with titans, are the only ships that cannot dock at a station and so only leave space when the pilot logs off. Despite being intended for alliance level warfare, one of the first Supercarriers built actually went to a small pirate corporation. Supercarriers were originally named Motherships. However, the Dominion expansion renamed Motherships to Supercarriers.
