In a war zone such as Vietnam there were a flight of 5 F-4s in the air at all times they could reach any point in minutes , suppose this is the same with F-35s you have to have a lot of F-35s a whole lot .

With 10x CVNs cruising about the sunlit seas I would expect that they could do that in a war zone if needed.
When it is all operational the CVN will carry about 30 to 40 of these, in addition to another dozen attack/ASW aircraft.
....and when was the last time the Yanks built a dud front line fighter?
