aircraft carriers are huge steel monsters on the sea, carrying considerable weapons, supplies and troops, and the cost of running them is quite staggering. when my country's fujian aircraft carrier goes to sea, the daily meal expenses for the officers and soldiers on the ship are very high. the daily meal expenses for one trip to sea cost 300,000 yuan. this has also made many netizens very curious. the meals on the aircraft carrier are a bit... what, why does it cost so much?

if the aircraft carrier is conventionally powered and burns heavy oil, each refueling will cost several thousand tons, and each refueling will cost 16 million yuan. this is close to 8,000 tons of heavy oil, which can support the aircraft carrier's navigation for no more than two weeks. continue to refuel according to the level of fuel consumption.

a simple calculation is that even if the aircraft carrier is refueled twice a month, it is calculated as 30 million yuan. in one year, the cost of refueling alone will exceed 300 million yuan, not counting the maintenance and repair costs of the aircraft carrier, labor expenses and in terms of equipment upgrades and replacement costs, it seems that small countries cannot not only afford aircraft carriers, but also cannot afford to maintain them. this is really true.
