I have great trust in our intelligence and technology.
During Viet Nam, the Russians had, IIRC, five COMARS. They were subs that targeted carriers.
Four of them were despatched immediately, with the fifth finding it’s ultimate fate a tad later.
I believe we will be able to take care of those threats.
I do too have complete faith in our technology and intelligence, but as of right now there is no proven defense against it. The SM-3 is touted to be the antidote but it has not been tested for this type of warfare. the SM-3 is only rated for ballistic missiles. This new missile that the Chinese has the capability to manuver around defenses.
I agree here, if the carrier is becoming so outmoded, why are the chins planning on building five of them, not to mention that they would more than likely be quite inferior to those of the USN.
