navies in general are in a very pondersome position in the 21st century. Most missile technology has significantly outpaced their ability to operate uncontested in blue water. this has led to endless, aimless voyages, rattling the chains of kissingers soft power to evermore capable adversaries who simply arent as interested as they were 50 years ago. These fleets are expensive to maintain. without a purpose like the cold war which afforded constant meaningful training, they become little more than a floating maritime exercise in cleaning and cooking. The accident rate of the US navy in the past decade serves as far more of a teachable resource than the Moskva.
