True...either than or well out to sea.
In the falklands the CVs were about 200nm from the landing zone!

Now a carrier to launch Valkyrie and transports off of would make sense. You could support them with air power from orbit, and could insert troops to the LZ rapidly and with more accuracy than drop pods.

As Tas points out ... if an ocean is available, someone will use to employ forces. G/W has ignored this aspect of warfare. But no matter, there is a lot of other stuff out there to fill the void ...
