AWACS Chinese style?...................
C is for cookie, that’s good enough for me.
Wonder how much of the technology was given to them by Slick or Bammy?
Funny how that looks a whole lot like an E-2. The Chinese wouldn’t be stealing ideas from us, would they?
This piece fails to take into account that our military is not sitting idly by while other Nations improve their technology.
The Chinese are a good 15 yrs or more behind us in both technology and force size. They won’t catch us unless we sit on our asses and get complacent.
Of the 19 aircraft carriers on this planet the United States of America operates 11 of them including 10 in service and one Reserve. China is reported to have three.
It is possible that just one of these monsters can annihilate an entire country. Along with these ships we have our MIRVED Missile subs,constantly on patrol and numbering 20 in total. Each sub carries 24 missiles with each missile having 8 independently targeted warheads. Each warhead is from 20-25 times more powerful than those dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. This adds up too about 4000 nukes which can be targeted on any location on the planet within 7 days or less.
Any nation attacking us will do so with the full knowledge heir Nation will be obliterated within hours of the attack by them.
Be patient for every measure there is a counter measure which also leads to a counter counter measure ad naseum.
Nice looking, slow, target.
I wish them luck with their EMALS system. If it works as well as ours does at the moment they’ll have just enough energy to push that AWACS into the water.
