I do think this is hyperbole.
Sinking a US aircraft carrier would be a direct attack on the sovereignty of the United States.
It would e like sinking Rhode Island(slightly bigger).
Retribution would be overwhelming.
- kuzehanka 7y agoRetribution with what? If the carriers are taken out the US has no way to project any kind of meaningful force in that region. Any scenario (unlikely as it may be) that involves china successfully destroying 2 US carriers would also involve their confidence in being able to destroy the rest in their coastal region.
- chriselles 7y agoIf there is clear attribution for the sinking of a US carrier the offenders would get glassed with a Trident D5.
- sbjustin 7y agoWe have 10 carriers and air bases all over the world...
- AYBABTME 7y agoThat's untrue, plenty of bases in the area, and plenty of airdrop capabilities.

- Jedi72 7y agoYeah nukes would fly I imagine.
- threatofrain 7y agoI'm not sure countries would nuke each other to death over that.
- boomboomsubban 7y agoIt's hard to imagine whatever war that started ending without nukes.
