Definitely.
Aircraft Carriers have to be like completely refit every 7 years. They're fucking relics that cost a bazillion dollars.
We have satallites that can rain down ICBMs, and we have the strongest hacking network in the world. We have EMPs that can render an entire country's electronics useless.
We're fucking developing railguns that shoot 220 miles and explode like a tomahawk missile, reaching speeds of mach ten meaning that it goes nearly a mile per second. You see someone on the balcony smoking a cigarette? 4 Minutes later he's dead, from 220 miles away, accurate to 5 feet.
It's just crazy what we can do nowadays that there really is no more need for these fucking gigantic ships.
