One thing a satellite can't pinpoint is the fleet lurking below the sea, which is where we still maintain a huge strategic advantage, smartweapons notwithstanding. Hail to the warriors of the "Silent Service."

Amen to that...although some technologies can in fact pic out submerged threats. I know we have this capability to a certain depth.

Nonetheless, our silent service, both attack and strategic, deserves our greatest praise, they are one of the most effective deterrents to agression that we possess, and our enemies know it.
