Agreed. There is nothing we are going to learn (we already know the weak points, after all since we own the blueprints) worth losing this vessel which was a rather substantial investment. And it is far more likely that the test results will merely show our enemies how to best hit the carriers. How secure can these results be, if China lifted the entire nuclear data base from the National Labs at Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore?
