Certainly the Russian Navy has less assets than the US Navy. However, I think it is more about which ones you focus on. I believe that the age of the aircraft carrier is over, and that anti-ship missiles are advanced enough and cheap enough that our carriers are nothing but sitting ducks. It will be similar to Japan discovering the end of the battleship era the hard way.

Asymmetrical warfare has hit the waves for some wet fun, we just don't know it yet.
