Thank you big business for moving jobs to China...you should be ashamed, but you don’t give a F about the US.
I agree.
However neither party, is currently supporting an increase in American hiring, and a return of US jobs.
GOP needs to stop its sell-out, and become militantly pro-American.
Buy American. Bring back jobs, to America.
For real. Bring back US jobs.
Someone will eventually step up and run with this issue. If the GOP waits for the Dems to do so, it will mean the GOP no longer have any America constituency.
It will in effect, be the end of the GOP.
I want the GOP to win, and become ever stronger. That will in my opinion only happen, when the GOP becomes the party of American jobs.
Get with it GOP.
Support American jobs.
I had one of those on my Lionel set.
So true... I try to buy American as much as I can. If not American made, Canada then Mexico...but we need to get jobs back in the USA.
Not even supersonic speeds are required for this to be a big issue. Imagine ... you've managed to get the submarine up to, say 300kph or so, and are cruising along just fine. Now, let's say you need to slow down to return to port or a duty station. Making that transition from supercavitation to 'normal' underwater would be a stone bitch! Water is hard.
At that speed, a much smaller aquatic animal would also be a threat! Holy MACKERAL!
H-2-Oh. And come to think of it, if the bubble is created by from the water itself, would it be explosive by nature? Hydrogen, Oxygen?
It’s funny how this problem never concerned them when they developed supersonic torpedoes for some reason.
Spelling correction. It should be "Shkval," which is Russian for "Squall."
Well, the torpedoes aren’t actually “supersonic”, as the speed of sound is insane in water. Also, you don’t have to worry about slowing a torpedo down. It stops when it explodes. :-)
Sounds like a crock to me.
A little over 6000 miles in 100 minutes. 60 miles a minute. 3600 miles an hour. Through water. And allowing for acceleration and deceleration, perhaps a top speed of 5000 mph. Should be enough friction to make the water boil.
