What component of the surface ASW of previous times have the SSNs repalced? I know they add a strike capacity to augment the CGNs & CVAW and there is no obvious AAW mission so did they take over part of the FIG mission?
Also, as I am sure you know, in WW II, only about a third of the CVEs were enagaged in ASW work with their DEs. About another third were used in the Fleet Train to bring forward replacement aircraft, move cargo, etc., and then another third would support landings in the SWPOA.
BRAVO ZULU, BTW.
