The region is coalescing into two major power blocs, as illustrated by a recent set of naval exercises.

      They are! Even without the new missile, they're just big targets for subs and regular antiship missiles. It's just that carriers haven't been involved in a real battle since 1945. Even back then they were sunk all the time.
