$13 - $15 billion, what else are they going to say? Yeah, China can
bottom our carriers with their subs and or DF-26 missiles?

Our carriers need to be smaller, less expensive and more nimble.

I disagree, but do believe we need more carriers, both smaller &
larger and we also must abolish the airforce & army. airforce assets
would then become naval assets and army troops would become marines.
We do not need all these different armed forces, only the Navy.


Since the US has more carriers than the
rest of the world combined how many more are
necessary?


Here's an aswer for that:

Basically, few of them are operational at any time: maintenance,
training, travel time, etc...
