We almost certainly have a defense against it and no one is making them in huge numbers anyway.
It would cost around $800 million to make 40 of them. If someone shot 2 a piece at each of our aircraft carriers..
New Carriers are around $120 billion before operation costs. So that's $2.4 trillion is losses off a maybe $2 billion dollar investment by whichever country.
I'd say aircraft carriers are a dying breed
So, I'm hearing that it's time to go back to super heavy battleships.
I have good returns if you also wager down on ramming bows if you're interested
