re: #30 jaunte

The battleship was already obsolete by the time of WWII. That war demonstrated conclusively that aircraft carriers were to be the thing in the 20th century.

Now one further step in sidelining naval forces are the UAVs and USVs. They are the new threat, changing naval warfare not unlike submarines did.

Surface fleets are always going to lose in a race of technology. They just can’t change fast enough.

Future navies will be centered around subs that can launch USVs and UAVs.
