A carrier force is primarily an offensive force I think. What are our major threats now and in 25 years? A full blown carrier is not an option. Too many personnel to run it let alone the training. I was on the Melbourne and that sucked up a lot of resource.
Maybe a model based upon an LPH using VTOL joint strike force Jet?
I used to correspond with an old salt who swore that you needed a flat top on the East and West coast.
