Where does that "swarm“ of drones come from? Any drones cheap enough to use in a swarm have very limited endurance and weak sensors. Possibly useful in the littorals, but a total joke for blue water operations.
Satellites are limited and impossible to hide. The carrier strike force knows exactly when they are in view of an adversary's reconnaissance satellite. In any future major conflict the satellites will be the first casualties. There is a very active arms race in anti-satellite weapons.
