It would cost around $800 million to make 40 of them. If someone shot 2 a piece at each of our aircraft carriers..
New Carriers are around $120 billion before operation costs. So that's $2.4 trillion is losses off a maybe $2 billion dollar investment by whichever country.
I'd say aircraft carriers are a dying breed
So, I'm hearing that it's time to go back to super heavy battleships.
I have good returns if you also wager down on ramming bows if you're interested
What does history tell us about unproven "superweapons that change the battlefield forever"?
One just has to look at the destruction predicted to occur from area bombing pre-WW2 and the damage that actually occured
Well that's also because we lied so goddamn much about how accurate our bombing ability was that not even the actual bombardier knew.
