Imagine a hit like that on a nuclear carrier in port.

I would bet the US Navy is VERY concerned about their ability to do that. The ship would be a harder target at sea, but still......

#15, #16. The Navy has been addressing how to defend carriers from nuclear attack since Bikini Atoll nuclear tests. Those were over seventy years ago. The same problems existed during the Cold War facing Russia. It is not a new problem and not more of a problem because China is now a potential threat.
