Question

And what speed a fighter Jet plane has to go in able to lift off a carrier ship?

Thank you all for your answer (s)!

Answer 1

Between 160 and 200 knots, depending on the weight.

(That's 184 to 230 MPH)

The carrier jet works at similar speeds, but reaches that speed in a completely different way.

Answer 2

depends on the weight, concerning the 747. A normal value, with almost max. weight, is about 185 knots.
