So, they might sink a carrier. The return fire would be from an SSBN.

Not while zero is CinC. He would dance a jig if a real CVN were sunk.

A missile attack might cripple an A/C carrier and even render it useless. But to actually sink a modern A/C carrier is actually really hard to do without below the water line damage. Even then it is so huge and built like a honey comb plus you have thousands of guys trying to keep it afloat..
