The coming war with China, even if somehow limited to a conventional conflict, will be to the aircraft carrier what WWII was for the battleship.
Kintzal has made the aircraft carrier obsolete. A carrier has no defense.
Until the US Navy gets an aircraft with a range of 1000 miles or more aircraft carriers should stay away from China. Let the air force bombers and navy submarines do the fighting. Carriers can go after any blue water ships China deploys.
