Old news. US isn't #1 at anything anymore.
Russia officially has the strongest military, China has the strongest economy, Hollywood revenues are at all time low and are being overtaken by European and Asian movie studios, because no one wants to pay to watch %generic blockbuster #1141234 part 5% anymore.

You are retarded, because you don't know shit about military doctrines. Aircraft carriers are only useful for projecting power against undeveloped countries.
You don't need aircrafts or carriers, when your cruisers can barrage enemies with missiles 3000 from miles away (see X55CM), and enemy aircraft carriers are sitting ducks for your 3M22.
Russian military is made to kill superpowers, US military is made to kill some goatfuckers in the desert. US doesn't have any modern missile or radioelectronic warfare tech, US doesn't even have any modern artillery.

I hope you dont live in the USA because you dont deserve the safety their superior military provides.

>what is THAAD
Obsolete tech, used for money laundering and having 30% sucess rate during tests against non-maneuvering non-stealth dummy targets.
I hate to break it to you, but Russian missiles have limited stealth capabilities, are able to take evasive maneuvers at MACH 6, are able to deploy decoys and everyone has a different trick up it's sleeve - Satan hides in the orbits of satellites until it reaches reentry point, Bulava travels very close to water to avoid radar detection, Topol-M splits into many dummy targets, Klub-K is deployed from cargo containers with heat signature concealment that can be hidden on any truck, train and cargo ship etc etc
Now that's what modern tech looks like. THAAD is on par with S300, which Russians developed in 1978

>“Hypersonic missiles are virtually unstoppable,” a senior naval source told the Daily Mirror. “The whole idea of the carrier is the ability to project power. But with no method of protecting themselves against missiles like the Zircon, the carrier would have to stay out of range, hundreds of miles out at sea. Its planes would be useless and the whole basis of a carrier task force would be redundant.”
>The Zircon has an estimated range of 250 miles. Traveling six times the speed of sound, it could reach that maximum distance in a little over three minutes.
>Concluded British newspaper the Independent: “It means the two ships, the first of which is not expected to be fully operational before 2020, could be rendered obsolete by this new development in hypersonic warfare despite costing up to £7 billion [US$8.9 billion] to build.”
>And if that news wasn’t bad enough, it now turns out that estimates of the Zircon’s speed may have been premature. Russia’s TASS news agency now reports that the Zircon achieved a speed of Mach 8 during recent tests. That would mean the missile reached a speed of 6,138 miles per hour.
