We can't even sink our own carriers without intensive engineering, which is without a taskforce encircling it.
Probably the only option to actually take one out would lead to this market never being resolved, even then the target carrier would still be floating ghost town afterwards. 🤷
@NickAllen This should be lower than invasion of Taiwan. The way invasion of Taiwan happens is a weak US president allows it without firing a shot.
@JonathanRay the United States has this history of telling dictators they're clear to invade a neighbor and then smashing them when they do. Even if Biden greenlights a Taiwan invasion China would need a plan to deal with us responding militarily. Take a look at what lead Saddam to invade Kuwait.
