Re: How current is this?
Large ballistic missiles tend to be used against fixed targets.
That's true. The real missile threat to carriers is swarm attacks, or hypersonic anti-ship missiles. A swarm attack needn't have to overwhelm the defence radar systems by force of numbers - it merely needs to exhaust the (usually) cassette based missile defence systems, using relatively cheap, old tech missiles until the escort vessels are out. Hypersonic missiles are something where we've yet to see them proven in combat, but there's no convincing defence systems.
