You’re a goof. If they showed the same graphic representing submarines, the U.S. and it’s allies would look comparable to the carriers. Guns or butter, baby, how do you want to spend your tax dollars?

Uh no, you fail. Amphibious ships have a totally different mission than aircraft carriers.

Sen. Robert Taft Jr., R-Ohio, asked Admiral Hyman Rickover how long he thought the U.S. aircraft carriers would last in the war with the Soviet navy, which was largely a submarine navy.

Rickover’s answer, on the record in a hearing of the Armed Services Committee of the U.S. Senate, was, “About two days.” The committee, needless to say, went on to approve buying more carriers.

Its well known that in a super-power fight these aircraft carriers are useless. They have a half life of about 6-8 hours in a WW3 scenario. What this shows is the USA is good at building pseduo force projection tools to the tune of trillions.
