Since the end of the Second World War, America has never fought a war against a peer or near peer adversary. The closest they came was Korea, and we know how that turned out.

America's fleet of aircraft carriers has never been tested in combat against a peer opponent since the defeat of Japan. Here is why aircraft carriers are obsolete against a modern military force and even at America's moment of triumph against Japan the writing was already on the war.

If America has a conventional war against China, Russia, or even Iran, its aircraft carriers will be sunk and destroyed in minutes.
