Interesting technology for sure, but this question begs to be asked: Why invest scarce resources into a weapons system that soon may be obsolete?

The proliferation of anti ship missile systems, asymmetrical tactics, development of drones, and the huge costs of maintaining naval task forces may make carriers white elephants. Yet carrier task forces still project power like no other military force available.

What do FReepers in the know think?
