The US has 10 active aircraft carriers in service.
And has been developing carrier tactics and operations for over 100 years. The USSR and others are newbies to this.

In WWII, there were over 100 operational carrier, 28 of which were attack carriers. During Vietnam, there were 27 attack and anti-submarine carriers.
Now we have 10! Three more are in mothballs.

I do agree with you though, our carrier expertise is based on decades and decades of experience. Probably at least 75 good ones.
