Take a close look at the flight deck and the sides of the hull. Aircraft carriers, meaning jets, have discernable elevators in the flight deck, access to the hanger deck.
Real modern carries have elevators on the port and starboard outboard edges of the flight deck. Also normally visible are the vast openings in the SIDES of the hanger deck, both port and starboard.
I have no idea of the spaces used here for maintainence and/or repair of the helicopters but there could be an elevator.
Also the bow of the flight deck shows NO sighs of catapults.
It may LOOK like a traditional carrier, buy it seems to lack most of the visible features. (to me)

If you go to the video, it appears there is an elevator starboard aft.

I mean, every destroyer has one, right? :-))

It isn’t very noticeable in the pic at the top of this thread, but it does have an elevator on the side. Other news reports indicate that it does have an aircraft elevator on the side.

They'll use The Force.

Check out the elevators in post #31. Undoubtedly to bring the whole destroyer's crew up at once. :-)

Destroyer, heck, it SUNK her! (to repurpose an old joke)

Also, catapults not visible is not the same thing as no catapults available.

Real modern carries have elevators on the port and starboard outboard edges of the flight deck. Also normally visible are the vast openings in the SIDES of the hanger deck, both port and starboard.

The determining factor for deck-edge elevators is usually whether the flight deck is the ship's strength deck, or if the strength deck is the hangar deck, with the flight deck mounted on top of it.

Cutting large holes in the side of a hull below the strength deck is generally a bad idea. Which is why many carriers have elevators in the center of their flight decks rather than at the edge.

But there's an engineering/design trick that the USN came up with that was incorporated into the supercarriers, allowing deck-edge elevators while also having the flight deck as the strength deck. Allegedly this design trick is still classified.
