At some point the JSF/F-35 Lightning II will come into play. Not sure when though.

landing on a carrier has been described as a controlled crash. The planes need to be able to handle the shock of landing. And even taking off is tough with the steam catapults generating acceleration resulting in 6 g's (that's a lot)

That's absurd. No one got past level 2.
