I was watching a program the other day about life aboard the reagan as it traveled from west to east coast. The program had lots of interesting information about the Nimitz class and their abilitly to track and defend themselves from missiles in an event of an attack.

It got me thinking wether in the event of an attack a ship that size could really defend itsself?

Against terrorists the aircraft carrier has no fear of attack but what about another superpower?
