See post#22. You assume you know more than the USN. These Psy-Ops are also great propaganda to use at home to justify the development (cost) of new systems which will counter these ‘threats.’
Not that I think this is a bad idea. As long as Defense Hawks have the upper hand in the political game and our rivals are misinformed at every turn, I’m good.
Yeah, I hope this is just feints. Only the Swedes know for sure.
If I am not mistaken, we are actually leasing the Swedish boat. That’s right. We are paying money for them to come over and romp with us. If I am not mistaken, this is actually the second time they have done this. The first submarine we leased was the Gotland.
You think that it’s all Psy-Ops? Fine. I don’t. I think it is very realistic training and it’s a damn good thing we are doing it.
