If we were to outbuild China and have the most ships, we would still be putting a bunch of faggots and other LMNOQ sailors on them who will not be a good fighting force.

Having ships doesn’t mean successfully projecting power, that comes with experience.

The only thing of quality ever manufactured by the Chinese was Covid 19

I heard this in the 80’s only to find out later the Soviets had inferior crap

We have more materials than they do.

Got more fuel

Our industrial capacity is about gone, the government is broke, and China has won.

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

Shipbuilding is pure manual labor. China has lots more hands to labor than we do. Add slave labor and they are going to outbuild us if they want to. We need to build better ships.

For one: the Navy can’t keep up because most shipyards have been closed.

For another: lack of warm bodies to man the ships.

Leaders who believe men are women shouldn’t be in power.

You don’t need radar to track ChiComm “ships,” otherwise known as ChiComm chum. Just follow the popped rivets floating on the water’s surface.
