Quite. Carriers are useless in a war of equals. They will be at the bottom of the ocean in the opening minutes of the war.

But they are brilliant against barbarians, which seem to be our main enemy these days.

In a full scale nuclear war most things would be useless. The US however has managed to use it's planes a fair bit since WW2 though and not just for parades.
