Appreciate the warning. Are we doing anything about it?
Their ships are as good as the rest of the stuff made in China. The real problem is the wokeness insanity that has taken over the US Navy.
The United States is more focused on a having a woke military than having a military that can successfully defend the country.
if their ship construction is anything like their city construction... their navy will be sunk in three years
If I am not mistaken, China’s navy may have more ships but only a handful of them can travel more than a 1,000 miles. They are mostly coastal patrol type vessels. China does not have a “blue water” navy yet.
I’m not an expert, but every branch of the the US military complains about funding and is constantly asking for more. However, if the military is struggling for funding, perhaps we should stop giving billions upon billions of $ to the rest is the world and spend it here.
Just a thought.
Maybe Ukraine can build a navy with all our money. That’s where China got their crappy aircraft carrier.
But, our navy will simply fly the BLM flag and the Chinese will shrink away in shame.
Guaranteed.
I believe our on navy is still shrinking.

So, Del Toro, you have torpedos...
Well. We could stop building overly technical pieces of junk and subsequently decommission them after spending billions and getting nothing.
Our govt is so stupid we deserve everything we get. Nothing will change until cell networks and McDonald’s go down
People in the know say that Chinese naval technology is roughly comparable to 1980s US Navy, but they are trying to close the gap. I've been told that even Japan in its weakened state can sink their navy.
However with America's military in decline I expect that in the next 10 to 15 years American security guarantees aren't going to be enough and Japan will defy the United States and re-arm.
What’s the plan to replace aircraft carriers lost in combat?
We made 53 carriers in 1943. It now takes nine years to make one.
china does everything in scale.
if we have 300 main ships, china will push to get 3,000+ main ships.
it’s just how they think.
you can thank the clintons, walmart, 0bama, soros, and the dnc for this mess.
read up on chinagate and the cox report if you’re lacking background
Ha! The joke is on China. There a Navy is full of toxic masculinity, and they don’t have any diversity or drag queens or females at sea. We’re going to totally kick their ass.
I do not believe that Amerika even has the infrastructure to self-source all the necessary components to 1) build entire ships 2) manufacture the necessary munitions it would require. That carries over to all branches of the military.
The Amerikan economy has been downgraded to the point where we could not fight a real war. We don’t have the chips, factories, infrastructure to support a military in the field for very long (using existing stockpiles) and the time it takes to create the infrastructure is lengthy and a major war would be lost before they could come online even assuming our factories and infrastructure were left unmolested by an enemy.
It is a good thing to have a large navy.
It is a very good thing for that large navy to win battles at sea.
We live in interesting time.

Not to worry….we’re sending billions to the Ukraine Navy ! lol
No carriers?
