So if we had a battleship with 100+ sea ram/AA missiles (like how WW2 battleships had 100+ AA guns), would it be sufficient to protect it from a carrier attack?

The battleship would obviously cost way less than a carrier loaded full of planes.

Carriers have attack sub escorts, so no.

>>29451042
those arent part of the carrier
>>
Battleships better have metal ramming dicks so that way it can be used to pound right into the Japanese navy when they decide to attack again

The problem is the planes are also carrying missiles, and unlike the ship they can turn around right after they launch, so the ship doesn't have a chance if the ranges are similar. You can build bigger, longer-ranged missiles, but then you carry less of them and the carrier just has to keep baiting you until you run out. It's a losing game.

>>29451391
What if you made battleships so they could carry aircraft?
>>
>>29451391
those missiles can't hurt a battleship (and even if they could they can still get shot down). Yes, you can make bigger missiles but that means planes can carry less of them, which means they are easier to shoot down.

So the question is can the carrier launch enough missiles to overwhelm the same cost in AA defense? Otherwise it wont be cost effective.

Also a battleship is a floating platform so can carry much larger/longer ranged missiles than a small plane.

Then it would be a carrier.

thats like saying every ship in a task force is part of each other

Yes, but it would be nothing but a more expensive destroyer with the niche benefits of indirect fire and being proofed against fireboats.
>>
>>29453005
if you can force aircraft to carry less missiles due to needing to use anti-battleship missiles, that would have a lot of benefit.
>>
>>29453098
Not really. It would bring marginal benefit at great costs.
