On the downside you still don't have any AEW, which leaves you rather vulnerable to ASCM shots from the littoral, aircraft or fast attack craft like the 022 Houbei, and aside from the LHA-6/7 50000-ton mistakes, the amphibs are deficient in fuel and support volume for a JSF/V-22 wing.
LO, just what are the frigates and their helicopters doing in your task group? It isn't 1982 anymore.
Granted, the E-2 is invaluable, but "zero AEW" isn't the state of play for a task force with AAW frigates and destroyers. The problem of ASCM's comes with the ones that are
low observable themselves. AEW may not help you there either.
