I worked in the ‘MIC’. China cant match our innovation. Period. Paper Tiger. Might they get in a few good shots? Probably. But they wouldn’t know what hit them after that.

“Might they get in a few good shots? Probably. But they wouldn’t know what hit them after that.”

We have approx 18 Ohio class missile subs , each capable of carrying 24 missiles and each missile capable of carrying 8 warheads each independently targetable. This means just one of our subs can fire 192 nuclear warheads (each warhead has approx 5 to 80 times the explosive force of bombs dropped on Japan in 1945) and the subs can be within range of any target on the planet within a max timeframe of 7 days.

And remember, we have 18 of these subs with about 12 on patrol at any given time with their precise location being unknown even to our own military.
