I know what you describe was true in the past about armaments. But those ships were designed to be all thin g s to all situations. When Sergei Gorshkov became Admiral of the Soviet Fleet he stopped construction and demanded new designs. His famous words were “ Better is the enemy of good enough.” Now if the Russians have returned to their profligate ways it’s news to me. And not the smartest move.

This may not be the biggest strike force they could mount, but it seems to be a surprise that they could do this at all (plus subs, likely) No fleet tug for breakdowns, all the merriment that they can't really go very far. They are just showing capability. They have no plans to attack, but it is a surprise that they could get these ships within 35 miles of Honolulu and seemingly in functional shape.

***Any thoughts on why now after a couple of decades***

It was my understanding that these were joint maneuvers in the Pacific between Russian naval units and Chinese naval units... no mention of Chinese ships here.

Joint maneuvers would obviously be a powerplay thumb in the eye to Washington and a statement of unity by the Asia neighbors.

I hope Russia is coming to liberate us from the Red Chinese puppet regime in Washington.

What a coincidence that this happens a few days after Biden pleads to Vlad "Please don't hit these 16 targets!"

'... Vlad says, 'Hawaii wasn't on the list... so I thought it was OK to take...'

I’m sure something will make it clear down the line.

Are you trying to say, FUTURE PROVES PAST?

You have exposed your complete ignorance of the matter. Perhaps you would like to propose an alternative reason?

I see by your other zany response you found the answer to your question.

I believe the extent of your understanding lies there. As bulwark to China.

China is now our daddy, armchair Napoleon, in case you just woke up from your nap. Now China/Biden knows Ivan has boats too.

There. Now go watch Green Acres. Its a good one, this week. Arnold learns to shuffle cards without opposable thumbs.

If anybody needs your opinion on international affairs, we'll send the orderly to get ya.

Your contention is that Trump and the US Navy are going to form a military alliance with Putin and the Russian navy to usurp (overthrow?) the US Government and “act as a bulwark against China”.

I know, you have a direct line to Q and Qtard central, so it must be true lol

Effin’ stupid.

Hey everybody, come over here and look at this stupid sh!t.

Where did I say anything about 'usurping the US Government', Admiral Halsey? 'Bulwar' does not mean attack. Google it.

Did the voices in your head tell you that?

I know, you have a direct line to Q and Qtard central, so it must be true lol.

Don't need a direct line to Q to understand this stuff. Just eyes and a brain and to not be a witless, withered blowhard, crusty old fart, like somebody I know.

*looking at you*

p.s. Q loves you, even if you're worthless.

We used to load the gallon containers and the cases on a small platform the Russian would lower from their Copters when they inspected our remote base - a good will gesture on our part (all 20 of us) since they were only 4k away with 4 Russian standard mechanized Armies with 35,000 tanks.

We didn’t have any strawberries as they were always ‘intercepted’ before they could reach us.
