The USAF is considering building a new weapon to go after heavily-
defended ships. See:

Shouldn't the Navy be taking the lead on a project like this?


They already did, its called Harpoon. An anti-ship missile that can be
launched from aircraft, surface ships, or submarines.

Been there, done that.

We're all one big "joint" family now. The AF finally has to learn how to
attack
ships. :-) Wonder if they'll have to learn to land on a carrier too?

We "been there done that" with what 20-23 CV's???? Now we have what?
10-11? I'm sure this is a driving force behind the AF's interest.
