Why China's New Aircraft Carrier Should Worry India

[Qutb-ud-din Aybak]

Yes, indeed it is worrying. India need another decade to match Chinese military might, given that India grows at a rate of 7 to 8% for another decade.

and also that china's growth is frozen.

Then why we built carrier? Because we know that US don't have such missile to kill our carrier in one hit

our anti-ship missiles don't have the speed/kinetic energy and explosive to take out a carrier in one hit, but a half dozen harpoon and naval strike missiles hitting it together is more than enough

Also India has Brahmos, Kalibr , and Harpoon missiles, they can take it out in one hit though

You really do not know how solid a carrier is.
Even a nuke is hard to sink the carrier.

And the CBG of US is so powerful that mighty red navy of former Soviet Union developed the tactic of countering CBG which's launching missiles and torpedoes salutation of strikes from air and sea surface and under surface simutaneousely, that is still a one way attack, cause Red navy knew lots of its navy assets would be sinked before they arrived at attacking posts and the rest would be sent into ocean after they launched their missiles by the fighter jets on carriers.

The attack range of CBG is far more than that of most of anti-ship missiles,meanwhile its defense capability equals that of multi-layer SAMs plus a squadron of fighter jets.

The way of Indian thinking is very funny, that is only from his own perspective.
In their eyes, the carrier of others is a sitting duck that is harmless and just wait for their attacks.

what do you mean solid?? are talking about actually surviving a hit?? or it's passive/active defensive capabilities??

there are a half a dozen different missile types half dozen platforms to launch these missiles, and thousands of these missiles

I just don't see a CBG surviving such a massive surprise strike.

Tell me why a CBG just wait for a strike of thousands of missiles ?

Why could these platforms launch these missiles safely and unruffledly?

Do you know the launching condition of missiles?

Using your brain.

If a CBG is so easy to be attacked by just missiles, was American all insane to build so many CBGs to get ready to be destroyed by out of number missiles of red navy in Cold War?

To launch that many missiles simultaneously will require a lot of platforms. Submarines, bombers, fighter bombers, ships, etc. All attacking at the same time. And also accurate intelligence on where the ships are. Than you have to deal with possible countermeasures. Submarines or other ASW ships and aircraft finding enemy submarines that are attempting to sink the carrier group. Besides the Aegis system with hundreds and hundreds of missile but also AWACs aircraft that would be far ahead and detect possible attack. And also aircraft from the carrier. Because if you are launching bombers from long range, they would be usually undefended because escort fighters don't have the range even with combat loads. Not to mention smart decoys and anti torpedo torpedo that is being introduced. And possible other future countermeasures like the laser systems on the future warships or BMD ships that can handle large number of anti ship ballistic missiles and cruise missiles.
