I want to address this to everybody for a minute... Have you tried to get a car part lately? Remember a few months ago when new cars were sitting on the Ford lot unmovable because they could not get computer chips. Chips made in Taiwan and China. We are so far behind the tech world with the far east that if WWIII broke out right now we would a a single Cell phone working or a Car running on the streets... This entire country would be shut down for lack of parts and computer chips. And until we can get back to America first with Production and Tech.. Those bastards got us by the throat.
End the welfare state and take all of the money we spend on those programs and convert it into tech manufacturing and industry.

Well, they can’t land booster rockets on a floating barge

So? An aircraft carrier’s deterrent effect is not derived from its stealth.

I would not worry about it. We know where their carriers and subs are at any time as well. What they don't have is knowledge as to where our subs are.
How far off New York was the Truman? That's a very heavily traveled region for ships in general.

Theyy found an aircraft carrier from space? Uh...good job guys, but you'll never locate Florida.

Americans are very smug about such things. I seem to remember some planes hitting some towers with such ease.
Sleep tight.

It's a freaking aircraft carrier. You can't hide them. And they travel with like 20 other ships. I'm sorry you don't understand naval warfare, but maybe you need to be a little less smug. They're literally called floating cities. The real concern is not that they can be tracked, but the Chinese are focusing on neutralizing them with drone warfare, which they've probably accomplished, but thank God the joint chiefs are promoting dick suckers in dresses.

I mean in the age of satellites it's not hard to find an aircraft carrier.

I'm not the one piss'n and moan'n about the topic. Most of what's floating, submerged or in the air is obsolete when/if the fit hits the shan. It's more about spending $ when it won't make a hill of beans when the time comes.
I understand enough about such things to know Americans are not as safe as they think they are.

Which isn't relevant to what I said.
It's an aircraft carrier. They're made to be a show of force, not hidden. You'd have figured that out if you had loosened the screws on your tinfoil a bit.
This is a nothing post. If you want to talk modernizing, let's talk about that. Probably won't get the same shrill screaming from the conspiracy crowd, though.

Aircraft carriers are outdated. If we were ever in a war with China or Russia, they'd all be sunk within 5 minutes. Along with any other big ship.

My navy friends are surprised and alarmed that the CCP is capable of this level of surveillance. Interesting that so many here think it's no big deal.
Are your Navy friends in any kind of role that should know much about this?
My uncle was a jet mechanic. Doubt he would have known squat about something like this.
My brother was in some fairly TS comms stuff, and I doubt he would have been tracking this stuff.
We’ve had maneuverable Keyhole satellites that can count eyelashes for decades. Extrapolating that to AI for finding and tracking doesn’t seem that big a stretch.

Nah just bought it from our politicians that they own.

If you think what SpaceX does is dwarfed by China's capabilities, you should really ponder what the US MIL is keeping close to the vest.

Joke's on them. It was just an inflatable mock-up of a USN aircraft carrier.

They don't allow Swalwell near anything important.

I think the bigger issue is that they knew where it was
It is over a 1000 feet long. It isn't sneaking up on anyone.
