Really? How would our WWII Navy (and God Bless those brave and courageous souls )...
...take on a BVR attack from ALCMs, SLCMs, long range Air-Ground Ms and long range stealth attack, not to mention drones and undetectable submarines?
Is it true - genXer here - that the merchant consigned navy picked up a lot of slack in WWII? The curious case of benjamin buttons depicts that.
