Looks like Thailand needs to step up their game: they only have one carrier!

Okay. I appreciate the mention. Some of the new anti ship missiles and cavitation (sp?) torpedoes are concerning to me.

The range on some are quite long and the speeds are supersonic.

Thanks for the mention.

I’m not in the military, and there are times when I wonder if my lack of having been in causes me to be off in the dark on some of these matters.

That’s why I toss things out once in a while for others to pick at, give me feedback on.

To learn what happened, in wonderful detail, read Shattered Sword, the definitive account of the Battle of Midway.

In the 80s, being in the military and not in business or high tech in Japan was considered to be a failure. Now things are flipping and they organize military balls with women dressed traditionally looking for prestigious husband.
