We need to remember this era because it is ending. Aircraft carriers, like battleships before them are almost obsolete. A new generation of "carrier killer" missiles will be their undoing. Men won't be flying fighter jets much longer either. Machines (robotics) can do it better.

I believe so too, next variant will be smaller “jeep” carriers or LPH type with smaller crew and will be a smaller target. Drone Squadrons and drone VAW squadrons that will loiter for days.
