The only sure method of preventing a carrier from being destroyed would be to follow the RN train of thought.....contemplate not building them at all

Interesting for which side you are on, because this ain't going to happen.

The naval war college in Rhode Island handles these kinds of problems all the time.

They know how to handle the problems of naval warfare ahead of time.

Now you have blown it for any chance of your countries survival.

Now we know your diabolical plan to charge us with thousand of small craft full of explosives.

More important is why this would happen.

Why would the US go to war with China?

Taiwan?

I don't think so:

US debt to China is 772 billion dollars and rising ... how much would it cost to have a conflict instead of paying them.

That's why they are selling the US dollar right now to get some of their money now

So the answer is:
Patience!
How many CVs will be around in 50 years?

50 years huh... that would put it around the 2060's wouldn't it?

I bet we will still have a dozen or so carriers around somewhere....

My thoughts exactly...

Still, one could hope that the USN has learnt something since then...
