Half the fleet is damaged leaving port due to collisions between warships. Air Force sits back and sinks the rest.

The navy would run out of supplies without us to replenish them. Plus we all know they suck at driving ships.

Space Force!

Air Force controlling space and all the systems that go with it could make things a little more interesting, Navy boys already have a tough time moving ships around, but I'm still on board with the sub guys turning this one for Navy.

Navy Carriers would have to stay far out of range or they’d be destroyed in the first day.

It’s pretty much game over then. Add the Marines if you want, I’m sure the A-10s would like to have some fun also.

Leftover Navy fighters get mopped up by the F-22s.

Air Force and it wouldn’t be close

Air force would send a strike package to each Carrier group. Drones take out the picket destroyers/frigates. Raptors clear path for B-2’s which annihilates every carrier in Navy fleet. Hence no more refuel/rearm for the Navy birds.

Navy SSbn’s rain tomahawks on air bases. Unfortunately the US interstate system has more landing points than the Navy can cover. With no air cover the navy subs are hunted down one at a time with satellites the Air Force owns and bombings from B-52’s which saturate the subs in their AO’s. Any that escape cannot rearm as the Air Force takes out all Navy support ships with smart munitions and MQ-9 Reaper drones. SEALs get some licks in but don’t have the firepower to make much of a difference.

Game over

Air Force- Won
Navy- Zip

Suck it squids. LOL

Are Tomahawks systems completely non functional if you turn off GPS. Not “degraded accuracy.” Not the AF somehow making the missile think it is somewhere it is not (off, remember?) Non functional.



A tomahawk from offshore's ability to hit a runway inland, say Whiteman AFB (home of the B-2s) will be nearly completely eliminated. The missile could still function on TERCOM, but in that event there is a way to defeat TERCOM or at least confuse it to the point that a missile fired from the GOM (likely closest point from sea) would be highly unlikely to hit Whiteman's runway.
