Marines fly Cobras, not Apaches.

Navy also have serious E2C aircraft in the sky, drones, and satellite observation surrounding a carrier

NMone of that means a thing if the enemy shoots first with a hypersonic missile. If we are prepared for war, we might stop it. if we are surprised, we lose a carrier.

I agree, they would have to pull off a Pearl Harbor sucker punch. I don’t think the Navy is sitting in the Gulf waiting to get sucker punched again, like they did with the Stark.
