MS catapults
Question: why do ships use catapults to launch their MS? On today's aircraft carriers it makes sense because the planes have to become fast enough to lift themselves before they crash into the sea, and they don't have a long run to do it in.
But MS? They either
- launch in space,
- won't fly at all,
- or are able of vertical take off under their own power.
Catapults take up some valuable space, so why do ships have them?
