Carriers deploy in strike groups for a reason. China's subtlest is much more dangerous to a strike force. Also wind can ruin a. Carriers ability to rein death from above.

China would win because USA wouldn't be able to go to China for funds needed to use all that snappy technology.



but it would also cut off US from buying all the Chinese crap we do, hence a good source of revenue.



China is used to starving its people, USA isnt.
