The carrier driver folks I knew back in Virginia was always concerned by that stuff. USN damage control approach is top notch, the ships up-to-date and maintained, the defense layered...but in a narrows with limited maneuver and given enough incoming then nothing is guaranteed. You can never discount the "golden BB" effect when you are the one getting hit.
