They bring up some decent points about the technology but still are missing the big picture. You can argue about spoofing them or trying to shoot them down and the technical capabilities of a large sophisticated delivery system but the fact of the matter is you can train ai models to visually identify a carrier with a high level of accuracy and precision and do it entirely onboard whatever the delivery vehicle is. Cheap delivery vehicles with enough guidance to get them into the general vicinity of a carrier where they will then identify it completely autonomously in a way that wont be easily spoofed. At that point its just a matter of volume. Carrier wont survive a coordinated swarm of hundreds semi autonomous missiles loitering looking for a target. Giant multi billion dollar titan like war platforms are too vulnerable to what's capable with modern autonomous systems.

No warship would really, but carriers are an especially tasty target.

Autonomous drone swarms along with autonomous missiles, combined with a large volume of "dumb" missiles, is going to be a headache for any defense.

Exactly, it can get out of hand quickly. Those dumb missiles may be setup to take queues from other autonomous platforms passing information along. Only one missile in the swarm needs to find the target and send it along to everything else. Doing coordinated attacks with waves of devices coming in from every angle at a high volume simultaneously. It's basically an unwinnable defense scenario. For the price tag of a carrier you could easily justify the cost of thousands of unmanned vehicles. All of these old hat platforms are obsolete, manned fighter jets, navies, mechanized infantry all easy pickings.

Loitering munitions are common in modern warfare, they replace the mines because they can detect targets and move towards them. But they are too slow to attack a carrier group, they will be taken out one by one even if there are hundreds. Hypersonic missiles are a different beast because even when hit, their fragments make a sieve out of their targets.

just depends on volume and how close the stuff gets before it's detected. They'll lose the war where they send up hundred million dollar fighter jets to shoot down 600 autonomous weapons that cost 10k a piece and i have my doubts they could even eliminate that volume timely enough to prevent some of them from getting through. What's a carrier group capable of putting in the air 25-50 planes? Each plane capable of carrying 8-10 aa missiles? Time wont be on the carrier groups side and this is just a formula that can be calculated. If the chinese need to send up 2k devices and can do it for less than the cost of a carrier they would.

I thought more about these brrrrrrrt devices, just forgot their name. They can take out drones and subsonic missiles, but are useless against a kinetic force coming in at hypersonic speed.
Edit: They are called Phalanx close-in weapons system (CIWS). https://youtu.be/YQHr9TC7lXM

If the first "conventional" way does not work the second missile will be a nuke, small one
Even if it blows up "around there", the damage is enough to make the carrier a sitting duck
What happens next ? who knows ?

Good, maybe nuclear war would make America collapse faster.
