No, I know about that treaty. I figure that if China went after A & NZ, the US navy would be busy defending Hawaii and the West Coast. Nobody who went after A & NZ would not have plans that took ANZUS treaty into account.

Seeing what swarms of drones are doing in the current newsworthy battles brings to mind what happened to HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse. Suddenly battleships were unexpectedly vulnerable to an new tactic.
Battleships -- "Queen of the Seas" -- became obsolete "effectively just before the start of World War II" -- US Navy.

Youtube has many videos like "5000 Drone Christmas Light Show" and I wonder if aircraft carriers would survive such a swarm.
