In this episode, we break down one of the most debated questions in modern naval warfare — how many hits, missiles, or torpedoes it would take to destroy a Ford-class aircraft carrier. Using declassified Soviet documents, open-source intelligence, and real-world examples from naval combat, we analyze China’s DF-21 “carrier killer” missiles, U.S. Navy defensive systems, and the true survivability of the world’s largest warship. We’ll explore how U.S. destroyers and submarines defend it, and what happens if multiple warheads strike the hull. We also look at past disasters like the USS Forrestal and the SINKEX of the USS America to understand just how hard it is to sink a supercarrier. This video dives into radar deception, electronic warfare, battle damage control, and the physics of high-speed missile impacts. If you’ve ever wondered whether aircraft carriers are obsolete in the age of hypersonic weapons, this is the breakdown for you.
