1, commercial. For example, the British Navy's "Royal Ark" aircraft carrier sailed into the Thames after retiring, docked at the Royal Pier near London Airport, and turned into a helicopter landing platform to serve commercial giants. Dismantle key equipment and sell it to other countries as entertainment facilities.

The aircraft carrier in Kiev, China, the theme park in Minsk, Shenzhen, and the United States have all been transformed into water memorials such as Bumblebee and Midway Island.

2. The retired aircraft carrier is modified and sold to other countries. For example, the Russian Admiral gorshkov was modified and sent to India. Of course, the plane was bought from Russia. India and Brazil especially like second-hand aircraft carriers.

3. Exit the aircraft carrier for disassembly. If it is really impossible to continue the service after the expiration of the service period, the tender will be removed. For example, Melbourne 1985 was sold to Huangpu Shipyard in China for dismantling. The cost of dismantling a conventional large aircraft carrier is about 65 million to 70 million US dollars.

4. seal it. Most of the US aircraft carriers have been sealed. Seal is not retired, but can be activated directly when needed. It takes a lot of money to seal up the decommissioned aircraft carrier.

5. As a target spacecraft. The United States, the third Kitty Hawk, which was launched on 1965 and retired on 1996, was selected as an anti-strike test platform for American aircraft carriers in 2005 to test their passive protection and anti-damage ability when attacked by various weapons, and provide relevant data for the development of a new generation of aircraft carriers.
