China has been building so called arsenal ships, which are a possible answer to aircraft carriers
- dragontamer 5y agoIts not too hard to sink an aircraft carrier. The question is: how do you __find__ the aircraft carrier. The sea is a large area.
- echelon 5y agoSatellites?
- dragontamer 5y agoNot as reliable as you'd like, especially at sea. Satellites are either Geosynchronous (aka: the US Navy knows where they are and knows where to avoid them), or they are not Geosynchronous (aka: they only are over a certain area at certain times). Again: your Satellite feed goes dead for just 10 minutes, the Carrier is now 6-miles away (113-square mile search area), with no guarantee that the new area is covered by a satellite either.
- treis 5y agoSatellites + AI and/or lots of people. That will get you in the vicinity. After that, it's a combination of drones and/or smart missiles.
