Hm... I read somewhere that the Chinese were developing a missile system that would be able to overwhelm carrier defenses a couple of years back. Given the Chinese knack for mass production, a spam of a few hundred anti-ship cruise missiles and even a carrier's defenses may be overwhelmed.
EDIT: Found link, you can't shoot down a anti-ship ballistic missile anywhere near as easily as something coming from the sides.
