Aircraft Carrier: Gone the Way of Battleships?

I spent the weekend trying to learn about the current conflict in the Strait of Hormuz. Drone technology is limiting the battle supremacy of the aircraft carrier. Conventional mine sweeping techniques require air threats to be controlled. I came across maritime articles written 5 years ago on autonomous barges and unmanned ships being tested. Overall, I have never worked on the R&D side, only in implementation. But as the supercarrier USS Gerald Ford sits in the Mediterranean for extensive repairs, its time to think about the future of warfare.
