really bro? what about the aircraft that carry laser guided missles, smart bombs, etc? the US Navy has every theatre we are operating in covered right now. you do realize that us US NAVY has THE WORLDS LARGEST “AIR FORCE” dont you? fleet size is relevant to the operations. If you knew anything, you would know that operations on the ground do not take place without operations in the sky. without those ships, you have no battle groups, without battle groups you do not have aircraft carriers, etc etc etc. maybe in your peanut brain you would see it as a perfect wordl scenario, but in the real world, thats just never going to happen.
