The U.S. has the number of aircraft carriers it needs to meet requirements across the globe -- unless "additional challenges show themselves," the four-star admiral nominated to oversee military operations in the Asia-Pacific region said.

Tip: Pentagon Covering Up Fact That Female Officers Nearly Sank Navy Ship
Crewed by women, who do not talk to each other!
YOUR hatred of women is amusing. This sort of thing has been done by men too but dismissed as unimportant!
see your therapist
The Navy needs more platforms to deliver long range fires which must include small carriers of F-35B's. Their 400 nm range plus missiles such as LRASM, JASSM, NSM and the new hyersonics in the pipleline can attack within a 700-800nm bubble.

You did not read the article did you? The author of the article was not against women in the military. The problem was lowering standards to get hit certain percentages in a certain time period.
Personally, I have served with women in the military since 1980. I have read that due to a lower center of gravity that perhaps women make better pilots and marksmen. My personal belief that women belong in the second line with the newer, better weaponry. I also believe that everyone should serve and be on call as reserves including paraplegics. With tech paraplegics could be drone pilots. Or they can be in intel. Waste nothing. As all wars since the start of the 20th century (really forever) have been total war and we have AI, there really isn't an option or a luxury to exclude women.
Now 11:44 take your skanky ass on a long walk on a short pier.
You don't even know the subject, hahahaha ��
All but one of the officer involved in the USS Fitzgerald screwup were female. Basically, an all female officer crew.
