Small carriers as support for distant or poorly equipped bases

Sweden and the Netherlands introduce the possibility that small flight decks could help overcome limited base infrastructure.

Notes

Small navies might adopt cruiser carriers once enough other countries demonstrated the type. Sweden and the Netherlands are suggested as possible followers. A mobile aviation platform could help address infrastructure limits at bases in the Baltic or Far East. The idea ends as an open question about whether those powers would copy the design. It does not specify which ships they would order or how fully a carrier would replace shore facilities.
