Like with the Spanish Civil War, (an earlier superpower proxy war), a lot of new weapons are being tested in wartime conditions.

Those cheering the demise of the Moskva should consider the future survivability of our own CVN battle groups within a thousand or more miles of China, just for example. We might wake up to the news that one has been hit by Chinese missiles and is on fire in the not distant future. (Or hit by Russian or Iranian missiles, in slightly different circumstances.)

For students of history, here was another major naval paradigm shift that probably fewer than one in 100 has ever heard of:

“The WW2 Sinking of Two Mighty Warships – HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse”

You must live in the subdivision through the woods where all the smoke blew for several hours yesterday.

I kept expecting an irate yankee to show up and have to explain to him this is what happens sometimes when you buy a house in the country.

No... If I lived that close I might have brought over hotdogs and beer.

If true, should be seen from orbit. We have very good imagers and sensors...

Churchill went into depression for weeks after those losses.

He should have known they needed air support.

Pearl Harbor happened before he sent them out, and successful air attacks on the Italian navy.

The USMC is taking notes as they shift to the NMESIS anti-ship system. An enemy navy can get bottled up in close proximity to land.

Hello, Taiwan.

At the moment, the Chinese do not need to destroy our navy. They have captured the Presidency and much of the ruling class...

“I saw two threads today on this super-warship!”

If it was a super-warship, Russia would named it after a major Russian city!

Their ships are unarmored powder keg, too much ammo on deck
