Darn and the US's smallest subs are 6900 tons.

Because people like you have no knowledge you will just compare sizes of submarines or pizzas, explaining your obesity problems.

Well the stats of the subs are too scary for kids like you. :D

So, are they going to strike the middle of the ocean or? Americans that might be on vacation in South Korea?


Nukes are not an effective weapon against naval targets. See crossroads-able. If the north koreans managed to get solid coordinates on a carrier group - already an extreme challenge against naval operations - and then managed to bypass the interceptors, so needing a steep angle and thus worse previous problem - then they could take out a single carrier and some support ships with a well aimed shot, or else just disable a carrier and get it towed home and repaired. And of course, if you could jump through all those hurdles, you could just hit the carrier with conventional payloads, albeit needing to be more accurate, but either way, it would result in a dent in american naval power and the prompt radical landscaping resulting in the bay of freedom seen on the previous page
so no, DPRK is doing what it always does, endlessly sabre rattle and posture

Too true. Also, the US Navy is NOT going there to attack N Korea, but simply to protect the countries around N Korea from any nukes Kim may toss.
Most of the other ship in the strike force are anti-ballistic missile ships.

If Kim goes haywire and starts launching, it'll be sort of like Mario Duck Hunt for the US Navy.

If there ever is...you best hope you're at ground zero. Anywhere else nearby and it won't be fun at all. :/
