Chinese says 24 hypersonic anti-ship missile will sink #USSGeraldRFord carrier fleet !

Recently, the U.S. Navy’s next-generation supercarrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) set sail from Naval Station Norfolk on its first combat deployment.

The deployment comes nearly six years after its delivery from Huntington Ingalls Industries’ Newport News Shipbuilding and subsequent commissioning in 2017, marking the first new-design aircraft carrier delivered to the Navy since USS Nimitz (CVN 68) in 1975. It is also the first aircraft carrier to join the fleet since USS George H. W. Bush (CVN 77) was delivered in 2009.

Nimitz and now Ford-class supercarriers are the symbol of US naval dominance.
But over the last decade, rivals have been working to counter them and as per China, they have a way.

In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how China destroyed USS Gerald R. Ford strike group in simulation ?

One carrier will cost china.... China!

[verdebusterAP]

Then China woke up and realized it was dreaming

[jimbo]

‘Hypersonic are very hard if not impossible to defend against’

Your clearly not aware that Patriot has been shooting these things out of the sky in Ukraine.

[ade_adeg]

Please go ahead China and see democracy brought into Beijing

[kingcrabbrc]

Yeah and given the size of their military, Russia should've gained air superiority over Ukraine in days but it doesn't always work that way.

[ProudSanatani]

They can't even defeat Vietnam....

[erod]

Hypersonic missiles dispensing chaff? That must be some durable stuff since it has to survive being dispensed at Mach 5+.

[michaelmacaulay]

China practices only offence but does it ever practice defence ?

[dmurphy]

I think the subs full of tomohawks and nukes should worry them a lot.

[jeraldsamuel]

Why didn't the PRC use long range underwater robot 🤖 torpedoes. US anti aircraft missiles not much good against underwater targets.

[brianpayne]

Talk, talk, talk, but absolutely no balls to do anything.

[thepalehorse]

They tell each other how they are going to fight them... It's just a game sheeple, just a game.

[kevinbixler]

I wonder how the Chinese fare in their simulations of defending against 14 volleys of 24 Trident D5 missiles and their 4 W88 MIRVs each?

[oldkid]

how did the simulation deal with the 400 ICBMs that were launched at China after the carrier sinking was complete?

[paulmurray]

The same hypersonic missiles that have difficulty hitting a stationary target painted on a desert floor? The motive for the release was to respond to the war games result released by CSIS.

[black_wall_st_will_rise_ag]

During war time, a 6 vessel carrier group would be much more spaced out and best believe China would be quite busy losing their own fleet to them under sea silent assassins call the Virginias and Seawolf class.

[ilearnedsomethingnewtoday]

Why does China always seem to leave out the fact that practically half of the ships in a carrier strike group exist solely for anti missile defense?

[jpmangen]

Direction of the missiles means nothing as the Aegis system nullifies that tactic. The simulation used by the Chinese also did not take in account of the massive upgrade to the AEGIS System which is currently going on.

[RMASUPERFLY]

Chinese strategy:

We can't do it in real life so we will tell them that we can do it in a simulation and maybe scare them away.

[outatime]

That’s a bold assumption that we would be close enough for that to work and that we’d just sit there and take it. Additionally, it’s bold to assume that there would be only 5 defensive ships and that you’d maintain a weapons grade lock on the ship the entire time. The only way the navy would move that close is if a lot of those assets that you’d use would be destroyed.
