The Royal Thai Navy announced on Wednesday that no new infections have been found after two officers in Chonburi province contracted Covid-19 after visiting a brew house.

 

The officers were part of the crew onboard aircraft carrier HTMS Chakri Naruebet, which is docked at the Sattahip naval base in Chonburi.

 

The Navy said that more than 300 crew members have been tested and isolated, adding that initial swab tests on them have so far come out negative.

Is that the aircraft carrier that doesn't carry aircraft?

I believe it needs aircraft capable of vertical lift or very short takeoff and they haven't got any.

Its actually known these days as a helicopter carrier.

Kind of a pity most of it is far too inclined to either land them or park them.....

Wold have thought an aircraft carrier would need more than 300 crew? Tested 300 is that the entire crew ?

It isn't a very big one, nothing like USS Gerald R. Ford.

It carries chicken coops. One might argue that chicken are capable of short flights,... and dive bombing.

Are you aware that England built 2 Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers without airplanes for them?  Embarrassingly had to have the US lend a flight wing of Marine F35 Bs just so they could take the QE out for sea trials.  

I think there are now 2 RNAF F35 Bs aboard with plans to have 24 ready by 2023.  The full complement that both ACs are supposed to carry is 72.
