Again, no one is talking about suicide attack. The drones are to be used to send the coordinates for a ballistic missile strike.
Carriers are large enough that you can start scanning for them before the terminal phase.
The article you linked is overly optimistic. The idea of masking the heat signature of a literal aircraft carrier is completely insane.
I also suggest you do the math on how much you can manoeuvre at a rate of speed of 3Gs at Mach 5 with a manoeuvring distance of 80km. (Hint : 33km radius). This is also an underestimation because it doesn't take into account decrease of transverse velocity.
This stuff was possible in theory 30 years ago. Now it's likely possible in practice.
