Wonder where they got that idea...

Who needs an entire CVN battle group! One “boomer” SSBN could finish the job.

How did you like the book? I hadn't heard of the series before so I went to Amazon to look them up. Found this as part of the review of the first book:

At the start of Australian author Birmingham's stellar debut novel, a United Nations battle group, clustered around the U.S.S. Hillary Clinton (named after "the most uncompromising wartime president in the history of the United States"), is tasked in the year 2021 with stopping ethnic cleansing by an Islamist regime in Indonesia.

And threw up a little.
