| Aircraft Carrier Group |
The above picture comes from the reddit social networking site. It shows an aircraft carrier task force in full battle formation ... with a litany of 31 support and picket vessels (not including probable invisible submarines.) However impressive this U.S. armada is ... one thing worries me. I know that I have little or no expertise in naval warfare ... but does not this battle grouping and, in particular, the lead aircraft carrier seem clearly vulnerable to a full frontal assault?

When was the last fleet-to-fleet naval battle?
Actually I was thinking more of frontal missiles or a frontal air strike. The last fleet to fleet battle I think was in the Falkland Islands where the HMS Sheffield was struck by an Exocet missile and sunk.
