Comments by "Nattygsbord" (@nattygsbord) on "Why The Nazis Never Built An Aircraft Carrier?" video.
This aircraft carrier would have been useless by 1945 as jet fighters were beginning to enter service. Many American aircraft carriers was scrapped after the war. Why? - Because those ships were too short. They could launch old propeller aircrafts only and not modern jet fighters that was superior in performance. So the navy therefore saw no need in keeping them so they were scrapped. And I think that Graf Zeppelin would have faced a similiar fate. It was not a large carrier.

@iansneddon2956 USS Enterprise - the WWII warship that partipated in every battle in the pacific war would have been an honor to keep. But she was scrapped after the war because she was too short and tiny to carry jets. And I don't think the Germans would have bothered developing special jet fighters for this ship like the Harrier or Skyhawk - and thus making this thing obsolete.
