Biden Admin's Supply Chain Issues Weaken Navy: Nearly 40% of US Nuclear Subs Out of Commission for Repairs
Western Journal ^ | 7/15/23 | C. Douglas Golden

A new report shows that more than a third of America’s nuclear-powered attack submarines are idle.

According to a Congressional Research Service report released July 6, 18 of the 49 submarines — or 37 percent — are being repaired or waiting for repairs. The report said that is far above the Navy’s goal of 20 percent.

During the first year of the Biden administration, the figure was also at 37 percent before dipping to 33 percent in fiscal year 2022 and then rising again this year.

It is my understanding that the subs are out for 6 months per crew.

Six month deployment for a fast-attack or guided missile submarine (SSN/SSGN) and three month patrol for a ballistic missile submarine (SSBN).

Does anyone think China’s or Russia’s Navy is more ready than ours? Everything China has is either imaginary or a copy of something stolen from another company that is built with so many short cuts they are just floating death traps. Watch The China Show on youtube.

Are they boasting about a 200 ship navy?

The traitorist Democrats are bound and determined to destroy this Republic. I wonder do all those jerks weakening us to the point China could whip us in days realize if the Chinese did take over do they think Chinese would reward them for betraying their country or would they say ... You betrayed your country once but you will not get a chance to do that to our country ...BANG

One of my husband’s friends is involved in a boomer. It’s alongside but still ready to go. They just need to load crew and food and go.

China can’t take on Taiwan let alone the USA, Japan, and Australia. Because that’s what they’re facing if things get kinetic.

The chicoms and other nonfriends of the U.S. thank the Western Journal for the contribution of the U.S. Naval readiness status. /s

We had to get parts from other boats so we could make our patrol schedule while they waited for our parts. Who was Pres? Jimmy Carter. Dems suck at being prepared for war and give our blood for their money during war. Vietnam is an obvious tell.

When I first read your post I thought you wrote “Viagra class attack subs” and I thought, “That’s cool!”

Not only the Biden family’s boss, the CCP the democrat party has been trying to down size the from the fifties the Marxism agenda picked up speed and they want to cripple it.

The one world government theory has been around for many years
