Ive often wondered how hard it would be for a super power to sink an aircraft carrier.
Just from a regular joes perspective it would seem impossible for carriers to defend properly against a pack of subs (much like ww2 i guess).
How would that work today, im thinking its illogical for US and others to have such massive carriers if they were sitting ducks to subs but perhaps they are and they still employ them as thats the only way to move your striking force around the world in a reasonable fast manner?
