It's not that hard to intercept a hypersonic missile, but there's much less time available to shoot them down meaning it requires less of them to overwhelm point defenses
Those ships will intercept any missile miles before it reaches the carrier.
This guy thinks a dozen ships can withstand hundreds of Iranian missiles, suicide drones, and decoys that managed to overwhelm the "iron dome", "david's sling", Arrow, and Thaad systems a few months ago. The answer is that they cannot.
For arguments sake, even if you assume that they have a completely fool proof defense system with 100% efficiency (lol), who do you think has more missiles? Iran, or a dozen ships floating in the middle of the ocean who are thousands of miles away from home? They're going to continue firing drones and missiles until the ships deplete their countermeasures and then it's fully over for them.
Supersonic? Iran has hypersonic missiles. Thats mach 5.
If you think the CIWS system (designed to counter threats in the 80s) can stop dozens of hypersonics, plus hundreds of suicide drones, and other random crap all at once..... just lol.
Op is implying it's going to be a false flag so us can declare war on Iran
Is anyone capable of intercepting hypersonic missiles?

source: trust me bro
A good enough submarine is the biggest threat to a carrier aside from an asteroid.
