The growth of ballistic missile capabilities has threatened the role of the traditional aircraft carrier and its airwing. In a future confrontation, current platforms will need to be rex2;evaluated and assume new and non-traditional roles to fill the gap traditionally held by the carrier strike group. Submarines will need a new and more offensive-minded doctrine as an integral part of Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO). Amphibious platforms will perform new roles as surface platforms capable of dispersing air assets and bringing over the horizon strike capability to the fleet. Aircraft carriers will shed the traditional strike role and become a center for Command and Control (C2), Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR), andsustainment. Current platforms with integrated capabilities and innovative deployment can overcome the threat presented by long-range land-based missile defense.
