    And this aircraft carrier will generate how many jobs in Argentina? Will this aircraft carrier bring food to satisfy the hunger of our people?

    Meanwhile, it sends an aircraft carrier that must be loaded with weapons of mass destruction. What is the objective? Threaten the South American people?

    Entirely depends on how good the ‘shielding’ is and what type and strength of EM radiation is aimed at it.

    Anyway adds considerably to the cost and complexity of the system when:
