Yes they could, if they wanted to. They make everything else.
Maybe they see ocean carriers as obsolete?

I completely forgot about the arkbird. Its true with its size it could have viable defense systems. But if they want it to survive it needs to cave the cuttin edge of tech. I am curious to see exactly how much one of those costs when us sea farring carriers cost around 6 billion dollars

The anti-gravity idea, is I imagine still in the ideas stage, but remeber folks there were a lot of rumours of the Nazis experimenting with this technology in world war 2, maybe the chinese have made a breakthrough, and if they had of course they would keep it secret from the rest of the world because it would give them an incredible advantage over the rest of the world.

After all, if the craft was truly stealth, it would be invisible to radar.

just something on the defense of an aircraft of this size, has anyone considered a rail gun/coil gun style defense system... they divert power from propulsion to charge the rail gun and then put it back to the motor.

We have lasers that can take out warheads mid flight, why could this not have similar lasers?
