Not true. The ASW forces are smaller, yes, but capabilities are much greater than during the cold war.

From a technological standpoint our ASW technical capabilities are indeed much better - not so sure about coverage.

Our submarine fleet, like our fighter fleet, is downsized, aging and needs to be replaced in the near future.
