Sinking a Carrier

Thats what China's wants to do to America, according to this article:

Beijing is determined to annex Taiwan. But it is thwarted by the US. Faced with the US commitment to Taiwan, "China has stepped up its efforts to acquire two capabilities: a credible Taiwan invasion force and the capacity to sink American aircraft carriers should the US interfere militarily in the China-Taiwan issue."

This is something I've been warning for years, first in the Washington Post, and here also:

While struggling for shipbuilding funds, the Navy still insists on purchasing the new CVN-21 for $11 billion dollars. This doesn't include the cost of missile escorts or naval aircraft.
At the same time, according to the Cato Institute, diesel subs, naval mines, and cruise missiles are pushing aircraft carriers further out to sea. Russia has a new torpedo called the Shkval, capable of 300 knots, which, in the hands of North Korea or Iran, could split a carrier in two before her captain could sound a warning.
