   Well, yes, but Russians don't need to.   
      
   In a way, the Crimean peninsula is an 'unsinkable carrier', while the   
   US-carriers are not.   
      
   Therefore the Nato needs protection for them, while the Russians don't   
   need that many ships.   
      
   The Russians could launch missiles from the peninsula and could reach   
   from there every point in the Black Sea.   
      
   With such missiles they could sink NATO ships, while the NATO can't sink   
   the Crimean peninsula.   
      
   This is what makes the conflict asymmetric and enables the Russians to   
   sit behind their trenches and simply wait.
