The parents point is more that for a functioning state, you need all of those things. If one of those things is at risk externally, bringing that one internal first makes sense.

Carriers are still very important to US force projection and hypersonic missiles are really overblown. We also seem to be readily able to take out existing hypersonic ballistics.

Also a 5 year war with the US and China that starts with a multiple thousands of missles? That’s just going to be a nuclear exchange and last not very long at all if one sides detects any launch like that.
