A long time ago, when the Soviets were the likely blue water adversary we had, I did a lot of reading on their navy. Was coming up with realistic unmanned drones to create realistic targets mimicking current missiles they had. They were scary even 40+ years ago.

One snippet I remember reading was how fast it was expected any open ocean naval battle would go nuclear. You would not finish your morning coffee.

Great, just great.

We be nervous with Biden--or Biden's handlers--in charge.

Just what the world needs: a simultaneously aggressive China and Russia, and a senile and nasty president. And jerks who stand above and hidden by the puppet.

Or even potential enemies. I would bet the US has at least theoretical plans on how to sink French or British carries.

The fact that the PLA-Navy is doing this proves nothing except that they are engaged in training

Why wouldn’t they?

They perceive us as a threat. Would you expect them to some day try to attack an enemy without any intelligence about what that enemies capabilities are?

I hope to God were are constantly doing the same thing. Otherwise we have retards running the show.

Obama and Dubya were both asleep at the wheel when it came to recognizing the CCP threat. Trump did recognize it but was on attack from all sides internally and did what he could. And now we have the corporate trojan horse. Things are not looking good.
