You don’t have to sink a carrier to disable it. When disabled, they become sitting ducks. Check it out in World War 2.

“Ukraine’s success was partly made possible by their innovative naval technology: Neptune, their homegrown anti-ship missiles; Sea Baby, their domestically produced unscrewed surface vessel; Magura V5, their own multi-use unscrewed surface vessel,”.

No possibility of a nuclear first strike.

How can you say that?   There is always a possibility of a first strike.

Give me a scenario where a first strike doesn't lead to the total destruction of the country launching the first strike.

There isn't one, that's the point!   Remember way back when that one kid in the neighborhood didn't get his way and takes his ball and goes him?   He didn't get to play either.

When the possum can't roll over and play dead, he hisses and shows you a quite formidable mouth full of teeth.

He will not win the fight but he sure will make you pay for his death.

There is always a possibility of a Total Global Thermonuclear War first strike.   It will not make sense to anyone except the person who pushes the button but anyone that thinks it cannot happen is a fool.

Hint: there are people out there who think, why have nuclear weapons if you don't use them.

Another hint: There are even more who think they can survive a Total Global Thermonuclear War, just for the opportunity to make a fresh start.

If I didn't have a wife of fifty years and a daughter to think of, I might be one of those guys.

Did you ever read Farnham's Freehold?   It's sort of like Galt's Gulch with a Nuclear War and some Islamic hegemony that took over in the future.

Ah yes, twin brother (sister?) to Rapid Onset Lead Poisoning.

Matters little, Ukraine has lost. Western welfare will only prolong Ukraine’s massive losses.

Spamming again. the problem for Ukraine is they are losing badly on land. They’re wasting effort sinking the Russian navy.
