Earlier today the U.S. Navy’s top uniformed officer released a new plan to keep the sea service ahead of its Russian and Chinese rivals.

While the new document will shape the Navy’s strategy, the service uses the term “design” to emphasize the its built-in flexibility to recognize the rapid rate of change occurring in both technology and the maritime domain.

“This guidance frames the problem and a way forward, while acknowledging that there is inherent and fundamental uncertainty in both the problem definition and the proposed solution,” Adm. John Richardson, chief of naval operations. “As we move forward, we'll respect that we won't get it all right, and so we'll monitor and assess ourselves and our surroundings as we go. We'll learn and adapt, always getting better, striving to the limits of performance.”

Richardson’s design describes the strategic environment and identifies four broad lines of effort:

1) "Strengthen Naval Power at and from Sea"

2) "Achieve High Velocity Learning at Every Level"

3) "Strengthen our Navy Team for the Future"

4) "Expand and Strengthen our Network of Partners

Note: The Type 53-65 torpedo is considered especially threatening by the United States Navy because they do not respond to usual torpedo countermeasures.

Roosevelt kept the fleet at Pearl Harbor very much against the advice of the CINCPAC Richardson. That was for a reason.

They have two major obstacles to over come, odumbo and hitlary, being rid of those two and getting a CIC who is willing to build our military is the only way that will ever succeed.

And, all submarines do not have to be nuclear.

Isn't any non-nuclear submarine essentially a dead duck for any incoming missile the enemy can aim at it, given the engine noise and/or exhaust?
