For those who think our Carriers are completely vulnerable, you should do some research on our multi node sensors for surveillance and reconnaissance. We can get their platforms before they shoot.

Also, the Chinese and Russian technology is still quite inferior to ours. If the platform survives, how will they even know where our Carriers are? At max range of a hyper-sonic missile launch our carriers can be 20+ miles away, they are very fast. Then, we have the ability to jam and confuse the anti ship hypers, as well as shooting them down with a very complex and Aegis system.

We have instantaneous kill chain capability from drones, AWACS, sensors, satellite...a complex chain that gets instant data back to ships to kill and maneuver.

I’m not saying there isn’t a threat, there is.
But we are way ahead of their game at this point.

Didn’t a Chinese Sub surface near one our Carrier Battle Groups and nobody knew it was there until it happened?

I seem to remember that episode.
