Well, assuming that the US deck park model is used, it really doesn't matter, because only aircraft down for maintenance and issues are hangered.  Those that can fly missions are deck parked.  So, it goes back to how many aircraft does the navy the carrier belong to really want to operate?


If you have an F5D that can perform dual roles of strike and fighter then that's a huge bonus over the F-11.  If you use the F5D with A-4's on a smaller carrier you have a very flexible and potent airwing even with limited numbers.
