We are building planes that are stealthy and lethal. Older stuff is being taken off as it wears out; the new planes are going to give Comrades a big surprise if they try anything.
Better check your facts.
The Ohio’s are having their SLBM tubes removed. The cruise missles? Conventional warheads only.
What is the status of the follow-on class of SSBN? It does not exist even on paper - let alone in a budget - let alone with will power.
By the way, outside of our few SSBN’s, there is no longer ANY deployed nuclear weapons at sea. NOT ONE.
We are building planes? We are NOT building any strategic bombers. NONE. You can almost count them on two hands.
Please don’t tell me about B-52’s. It’s a FIFTY YEAR OLD AIRPLANE. That’s the generational equivalent of a WW1 biplane flying in 1966. They are a joke and sad indictment of our impotence. We could once fill the sky with them. Now? A handful.
We are naming the few we have after states - like we used to name our battleships.
B-1’s are being de-nuked.
Etc, etc, etc.
And, by the way, no one alive knows if our depleted, defanged nuclear arsenal even WORKS.
We haven’t tested a warhead in years. We run computer similations to “see” if we “believe” that they will work.
These are complex systems, many with aging components that are deteriorating. Untested, they are in fact a giant crap shoot to maybe go off with a bang instead of a fizzle.
ALL of our large specials are now withdrawn, destroyed, recycled, or broken up.
The Chinese will hit us in ways that we cannot even begin to imagine right now.
But - if the best this country has to offer is Reid, Pelosi, and B. Hussein Obama, then no enemy will have to strike us first - they will just threaten our “leaders” and entice them to captiulate.
I fear that we are going to reap the bitter harvest of our rotten society.
