China 'carrier killer' doesn't pose threat to US aircraft vessel, 'confident' official says
Story by Chiara Fiorillo • 15h
Rear Adm. Carlos Sardiello, commander of the USS Carl Vinson strike group, said US trained sailors "can operate these complex, contested domains," "be lethal and survivable" and "execute the mission regardless of what the threat is." He added that the US would be able to face even Chinese missiles.
He told a group of reporters earlier this week: "I am absolutely confident that the carrier strike group can execute the mission that it was designed to do effectively and safely." The comments came as Carl Vinson and fellow carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt conducted joint training with Japanese destroyer JS Ise in the Philippine Sea on Wednesday.
