A couple well paced MOAB’s or nuke and they are rendered useless. Just like the Russian Black Sea fleet, drop one burst on the Dardanelles Strait and they cannot leave the Black Sea.

Interesting that they would place so much infrastructure on a relatively small island. They had better put a very large and well-armed garrison here, because we could certainly deny them any reinforcements from the mainland if push came to shove.

Just as a U.S. city or base is rendered useless by a PLA nuke. What's your point?

Yeah, the U.S. Navy has been prepared to deal with hardened submarine pens and underground bases since the late 1940s when the Soviets were building them.

No big deal.

Uhm, doesn’t this work both ways though? Plus, if it gets to the point where we have to use nukes, do you think anyone will walk away a winner?
