HB of CJ, you are describing what the Chinese call "Unrestricted Warfare", which itself is a variation or development of what many military theorists call "4GW".
Widely dispersed forces, ones that are smaller, faster, less tied to a big logistics tail are indeed what will be needed. These forces will also use technologies in new and different ways (I picture UCAVs orbiting over ships and ground formations to provide the anti missile defense, since they have longer sight lines and can engage incoming weapons at longer ranges, for example).
Of course, *we* should also be prepared to deal with 4GW and Unrestricted Warfare by being able to deal out the same sorts of punishment to our enemies.
The "Forrestal" suffered detonation of no less than nine 454 kg bombs directly on the flight deck. This was the worst possible situation, in the list that not affected the damage to underwater parts.
In the full-scale war condition, she would be able to return to operations less than 48 hours later.
