Forget Aircraft Carriers: The U.S. Navy Has an 'Achilles Heel'
Story by Peter Suciu • 10h


A Big Challenge for the Navy: The U.S. Navy faces significant challenges, including a shortage of sailors and shipyards. Recruiting and retaining personnel has become difficult, leading to operational and safety concerns.


More Problems: The Navy's shipbuilding capabilities are also in decline, with only a few shipyards remaining, and issues like rising costs, material shortages, and workforce problems exacerbate the situation.

What Next? The Navy is struggling to maintain its fleet, and without addressing these logistical challenges, building up a sufficient naval force seems unlikely.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
