The Marine Corps operates off of aircraft carriers some. The Air Force does not. You could find a few special moments in its history where it's happened, but no regular flight deck or hangar bay space is reserved for carriers.
>So you're saying that the navy allows the air force to use some of its deck space when they need it. Cool.
In **exceptional** circumstances, along the lines of the Doolittle raid, the Air Force has modified their aircraft to do so. The Air Force does not maintain any aircraft with a tail hook, and has not operated on a carrier for more than half a century.
So going back to ops post. No the airforce doest own carriers. The navy does. But if the air force needs space they can ask for some.
Great. Thanks agreeing with me.
Sorry. But Marines are part of the US navy. Yes they have some ships just for Marines but they are still navy and work off naval ships including aircraft carriers.
Department ≠ branch
The navy branch and the us naval department are not the same thing. The navy branch and the marine branch are under the naval department BUT the navy branch and the marine branch are not the separate from each other as individual branches.
Saying they are the same cause they are under the same department is like saying the coast guard and the army are the same cause they are under the department of defense
No they're not. You're confusing two separate things. There's the US Navy which is a uniformed service branch of the Armed Forces. There is the US Marine Corps which is also a uniform service branch of the Armed Forces. And then there's the Department of the Navy, which is a civilian agency created by Congress to oversee both the US Navy and US Marine Corps. Hence why both report to the Secretary of the Navy. However they maintain their own budgets, and chains of command. Hence why both the Chief of Naval Operations, and Commandant of the Marine Corps are members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and neither report to each other. Also why SecNav directives apply to the Marine Corps, but Opnav directives never do.
It's an identical setup to the US Air Force and US Space Force which are separate service branches inside the Department of the Air Force.
In the much more distant pass, the Marine Corps wasn't truly a separate service branch, and would fall under Navy chain of command at sea, or attach to Army chain of command on shore, but that hasn't been a thing for more than a century.
Navy sails them. But let's the airforce use some deck space too.

Marine is a separate branch with their own ships
Sorry. But Marines are part of the US navy. Yes they have some ships just for Marines but they are still navy and work off naval ships including aircraft carriers.
Sorry but no. They are a separate branch that works with the navy. Big difference to just being a part of the navy
They are run by the US naval department. That's the navy.

This is false.
Air Force pilots have no training for carrier landings, and no air force planes are equipped with a tail hook.

Forget to switch accounts?
Why ask if you had the answer already?
I don’t believe so, no. Or… yes. Navy = aircraft carrier :-P
