flag Navy Chief Caudle pushes smaller, agile naval units over large carriers for cost, efficiency, and tech integration.

flag Navy Chief Adm. Daryl Caudle is pushing a shift from large carrier deployments to smaller, mission-specific naval units, arguing that tasks like monitoring Venezuelan shipping or regional threats don’t require carrier strike groups. flag He advocates using littoral combat ships, drones, helicopters, and Coast Guard coordination to improve efficiency, reduce strain on aging vessels, and enhance responsiveness, especially in the Caribbean and Arctic. flag While President Trump continues to support large, visible naval displays including new battleship plans, Caudle’s strategy emphasizes agility, cost-effectiveness, and better integration of unmanned systems, though he acknowledges challenges in training personnel to adopt new technologies.
