Historic First Five Carriers from Four Different Countries

yes but you said a frigate with nukes a frigate hard to get also the terrorist are going to get a nuclear missile then place it on the frigate evade all of our ships and aircraft and radar get wihtin range of the carrier then they will know how to aim or program the nuclear missile where to land and they will know how to fire it. very nice story devil but can you get back down to reality which is that that is very hard to do almost impossible.

west point are you kidding me here !
terrorist aint some dumm folk from 3rd world countries , most of the large groups know how to work nukes and can get em,also you can buy a pretty good captain now adays. read kilo class now that tells you what can happen.

If its so easy to do it should have happened by now but it hasn't cuz this isn't easy to do you try firing a nuclear missile from a frigate with no education on how they work. take all of the alqade(sp) people and tell them with this nuke they on this frigate they have to hit that carrier group several hundreds of miles away see how they do they will blow themselves and their ship to kingdom come.

Not to mention the Codes to arm the weapons, the necessary firing procedures, accurate intelligence on the loacation of the carriers etc. Not to mention the fact that you have to get past the Ageis system. With a few missiles it is more likely to intercept an inbound that if you saturated it.

I dont think a carrier would be any where near the top of a terrorist to bomb list if they got a nuke. Why would they hit a hard target when it would be much easier to hit a city and it would kill more people, Just look at the attacks they have already done they look for easy targets not something that can detect them hundreds of miles away and fight back instead of helpless civilians

If anything sneaking one into a busy port city would have a much greater effect.
