We are about to find out that our huge carriers are obsolete as well because the Navy still hasn’t found a completely reliable answer to guided missiles.
Unlike the Battle of Midway, there isn’t an ability to hide the fleet anymore from modern surveillance drones and satellites. The vastness of the oceans that once protected our navy simply aren’t impenetrable today. Once pin-pointed, a carrier fleet simply becomes another target.
What if the fleet’s anti-missile defenses are simply overwhelmed by a cloud of small missiles.??? Enemies don’t even have to expend the lives of pilots to deliver a nuclear bomb.
Just my opinion, but we are still building behemoths of the sea that have seen their zenith in tactical and strategic capability in an all-out war with an enemy with minimal resources compared to ours.
If Freeprs would stop responding to this 19FortyFive crap, it would disencentivise them from paying someone to post it.
