carrier group etc = gilt kings sword and armor = impotent and vain and useless against weapons that negate your defenses

i learned that after the attack on the USS Cole - the navy in employs a "cloud" or "net" divers to patrol the underwater perimeter
increased costs for no increased benefit - just maintains status quo
carrier groups? vulnerable to carrier busters china is rumored to be developping
tanks? humvees? IED's that cost next to nothing to build and are extremely effective
attack helicopters? they can be taken down by lucky shots from an RPG
assault rifles? kalashnikovs can be purchased for less than $100
what do all of these examples of have in common?
American weaponry can be destroyed by weapons that cost 1 to 4 orders of magnitude less
the financial burden of this is crippling the US - effective destroying the US economy and it's ability long term to confront external threats
immediate action is required to develop and deploy weapons that compete on cost and effectiveness
so there!
