If a C-130 can take off and land on a carrier, an F-111 certainly can.
It can, ...you missed the reference and context. Admiral Thomas "Tomcat" O'Malley (I believe) testified before Congress on the effectiveness of the F-111 in filling the Navy's role for a carrier based fighter and was asked if more thrust would better enable it to fill this role....
His reply was something to the effect that "there isn't enough thrust in all Christendom to enable it to be a suitable carrier based fighter..."
O'Malley was a proponent for the F-14 and it's moniker is a credit to him.... "Tomcat"
