What Does CA Stand For?
CA stands for Carrier Aircraft
CA, or Carrier Aircraft, refers to military or naval aircraft specifically designed for operation from aircraft carriers. These aircraft are engineered to take off and land on the limited space available on a carrier's flight deck and are equipped for various missions such as reconnaissance, combat, air superiority, and support roles. Their design includes features like strengthened landing gear, tailhooks for arrested landings, and optimized aerodynamics for carrier operations. Carrier Aircraft play a crucial role in naval aviation, projecting power and providing air support in maritime environments.
