And they also don't travel alone.

5-10 ships moving at speed across the ocean. Blasting the skies with radar.

Its as easy as anything is to find it in the ocean. And were pretty damn good at tracking ships at sea even small fishing vessels let alone a floating city.

The threat model to CSGs are basically nuclear submarines from nations that would simply tail the group if needed.

U.S. anti-submarine doctrine for surface vessels is pretty much just “run away”, that’s how dangerous subs are, so that’s why U.S. CSGs often include an attack submarine escort.
