19FortyFive: in the future, an aircraft carrier can be destroyed in five ways 
There are five new ways to destroy an aircraft carrier, writes 19FortyFive.
< p> The publication from the United States notes that an aircraft carrier can be tried to sink by traditional means, for example, using torpedoes and ballistic missiles. However, in the future, according to the publication, these ships will face new threats. 19FortyFive calls them.
The first threat is underwater drones, capable of autonomously waiting for an almost unlimited time for suitable conditions to attack a ship. The second is cyberattacks, which can disable the main systems of an aircraft carrier and make it vulnerable to enemy attacks. The third is disposable flying drones. The fourth is hypersonic missiles, which combine the threat of ballistic and cruise missiles. Fifth – the possibility of striking from space.
19FortyFive assures that the aircraft carrier is currently an instrument of geopolitical influence, the use of which in the 21st century may remain relevant until the first destruction of such a ship.
In January, in the “Military-Industrial Courier”, Deputy President of the Russian Academy of Missile and Artillery Sciences for Information Policy, Doctor of Military Sciences Konstantin Sivkov wrote that the Russian Zircon hypersonic missile, the declared maximum range of which is 1000 kilometers, would be able to destroy an aircraft carrier of the Naval US forces, which “will have to approach our coast at a distance of 450-500 kilometers in order to strike at important targets deep in our country.”
