WWIII’s Pearl Harbor will see six U.S. carrier groups sunk within an hour. Even if detected and destroyed, the Russian attack sub following each deployed carrier will launch its complement of 32 hypersonic missiles. Funny about the Eisenhower, the Houthis claim they hit the carrier and the Eisenhower basically limps away while claiming BS on the Houthi claims.

The silicon chip has made naval surface combatants, land armored vehicles, helicopters and most fixed wing aircraft obsolete death traps. It will be a nerd behind a console that will determine the outcome of future wars.

"Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier, which has been battling Houthi rebel attacks on shipping in the Red Sea for nearly nine months." --- they've been battling a rag-tag gang of misfits for nine months? Something is very wrong with our defence policies.

I realize that it is so ‘last century’

But what was wrong with the concept of

“Loose Lips Sink Ships!”???

You have some vivid fantasies.

What I see is a mostly useless and very expensive effort to down incoming drones and missiles.

What I don’t see is any effort to take the fight to the Houthis where it counts: on the ground in Yemen.

We will consistently lose until we go on the offensive.

Drone swarms are the next thing in warfare.

The Hootie and the Blowfish had something to do with one carrier group limping away. Now that the N. Koreans, Iran, Hooties, and Cubans are getting Hypersonic Missiles - JOE F’N BIDEN & HIS LOSER TEAM has put America on the defense into the future. The world changed when Blinken and Sullivan/Austin decided to attack Russia inside Russia.

If Biden or the DNC retains the White House, I predict that everyone of these carrier groups will be targeted within four years by non-nuclear proxy groups using Chicom/Ruski Hypersonic Conventional Warheads.

One day the US WOKE....

You are saying in the first hour of WWIII, Russia would kill 37,500 US sailors and Marines? (There are roughly 7,500 personnel in each carrier group).

Japan thought the USA would be demoralized and not fight if they took out the Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor. The opposite was true. They kicked a hornet’s nest.

If the Russians were able to pull this off, I don’t care how woke half the country is, the other half would rise up and not stop until Russia was totally defeated.
