For this POS Chinese diesel sub-—>>

Sub = RPG

RPGs and anti tank missiles are cheap ways to kill armor

Chi quiet diesel Sub = very low cost way of inflicting great damage on our lumbering warships

Citibank and others have been forced to write down their bullshit mortgage portfolios. My unhappy guess-timate is our huge aircraft carrier groups are also headed to a write down

***I doubt the aircraft carriers would be knocked out completely, but their usefulness would be zero at the time we need them. Should they catch fire, they’d have to turn back from the battle and head home. CNN would have pictures of burning carriers and Chinese celebrating the reunification of Taiwan. What are the chances our carriers would catch fire if Chinese subs can pop up near them and the carriers are in range of surface missiles? Those are the same chances of a successful engagement in Taiwan, and the Chicoms know it.
