America makes aircraft carriers. China sells stuff…

So true and they are kicking our ass in just about every economic endeavor. We are watching the USA Empire slowly die before our eyes, thanks to our rapacious oligarchs and the politicians they own. Not necessarily a bad thing. A warlike empire needs termination.

They also have 3 aircraft carriers under construction and two completed and in service.
Their first aircraft carrier has problems. If you don't at first succeed, try and try, again. A long journey begins with the first step.
The main problem with it is the fact that using the Ski ramp for take off means they can carry no appreciable weapons load and even require a recuded fuel load. As a result, their fighters are almost useless.

It is not their 'fighters' we have to worry about....it is China's massive arsenal of missles....capable of destroying our Aircraft Carriers.

I haven't seen a demonstration that shows that China can knockout our aircraft carriers with missiles. Carrier groups have massive defenses against missile attacks.
I am reminded of General Billy Mitchell a early advocate of air power and when he demonstrated a Airplane could sink a Battleship he became very unpopular with the big boys and eventually he was courtmartialed.

Now today we see something very similar....those who cling to the importance of aircraft carriers even though it is known they are very vulnurable to missle attacks.

The missiles are going hypersonic now. They are faster and faster. You shoot 20 of them and if only 1 gets through that at least slows down or stops the carrier from using their aircraft. In an all out war, they out mass produce us. So we better have a huge technology advantage. Perhaps those UFO's the military has been showing recently are our so called secret projects. Then they will be used to win the day before the war goes nuclear.
There is no way to shoot down a hypersonic sea skimming missile in a surprise attack as the weapons that will do the shooting are not kept loaded and unlocked, which is what they must be to shoot at a missile coming in at 1.7 miles per second
Where is the guarantee anything moving that fast can hit the broad side of a barn? That's the key point where the Chinese and Russian suck!
Since the offensive weapons systems are not loaded and unlocked the USA is defenseless against a surprise attack against a weapon traveling 2.7 miles per second
OMG, STFU! In the age of satellites, there is no such thing as a surprise attack, dumbass!
As a former military man (ret) and coming from a LONG line of military men, I can say to you that you know better than that (or you should).

For every NRO Sat Station In space, both the Russians and the ChiCom have the capability to disable them from the ground - exactly as we can with theirs. It's the 21st century, Admiral.

Never a truer sentiment was expressed that "For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction ".

Take for example our "stealth" fighters. Look at the Chinese opposite. Looks EXACTLY like ours. Helps prevent MADD.....

Disabling our satellites is an act of war, dumbass! I think we would know!
LOL, it is possible to know when it's already too late to do anything
Guess he doesn't understand that the second they disable OUR sats, we disable theirs. Really not that hard to figure out. it's tit for tat.
With hypersonic missiles the satellites have no meaning

Depending upon the adversary, the carrier was actually obsolete decades ago
Then why are India and China trying so hard to build them?
China bought hulls from Russia that Russia did not see the need for anymore. China just wants to sail around Taiwan and look cool. All the carrier does is make the nerds on it feel cool, if they had any idea how big and easy a target that they were they would jump off wherever they were. The carrier is as outdated as the battleship.
 
Point of the article seems to be that China does business, the US does empire and the empire is fading fast.
Reed has done a number of articles regarding Chinese advances.
The job of the US Navy is to keep the sea lanes open and not build an Empire.
The job of the U.S. Navy SHOULD HAVE BEEN to keep sea lanes open, but HAS BEEN to build an empire.
This is why I hate libtards! What fucking empire, you ignorant piece of shit?

The United States became an accidental empire after WWII. However, after that we've become a super Neo-Colonial power.

The U.S., mostly through the Republican party, has been the strong arm of Conservative European economic colonialism.

We fought for 15 years in Vietnam to protect the interests of French colonialists...because the common people of France refused to do so.

"Not one drop of American blood should be spilled to protect French Colonialists" - A Statement made by a Conservative U.S. Senator in response to Frances request for American assistance during the Dien Bien Phu Siege.

Eisenhower destroyed Democracy in the third world and imposed dictatorships.

The list of U.S. interventions in foreign countries, to support U.S. financial interests, is huge.

Take your head out of your ass and have a look at the world!
 
We should be planning and building new Cities in more optimum locations to help deal with climate change. In that way, more optimum economies of scale can be brought to bear on any given venture. Infrastructure could be placed underground for better storage and to better conserve greenspace above.
 
So true and they are kicking our ass in just about every economic endeavor. We are watching the USA Empire slowly die before our eyes, thanks to our rapacious oligarchs and the politicians they own. Not necessarily a bad thing. A warlike empire needs termination.

“An almost entirely automated port in China, during unload of a container ship. “

50 years from now, in whatever is left of the US, our children will ask their parents "Why did you let this happen?"
People with narrow vision sought empire over innovation and trade
Indeed. Gone are the days when an "Empire" was looked at as GREAT by the Armies that they could amass. Today? an EMPIRE is looked at by the size of their countries stock market portfolio and how they wield their monetary power..

While the United States "used" to have the worlds most deadly military, that is (regrettably) no longer the case. While we have spent hundreds of trillions of dollars paying every other country in the world for "allegiance" - that are not, China has built their military to be leaner, sharper and more deadly than most other military in the world.

Sure, we can kill from 50,000 feet or 100 miles away....but MANPOWER, the people that actually do the fighting and dying is sadly lacking. Anyone who has served in the military from say 1973 until today will tell you the same. Todays military concentrates on "political correctness" and "all Inclusive" - to their detriment.

We will pay dearly one day. And that day is not long off.....
Sorry, turd, but the Chinese military is nowhere near as strong as ours. How many ICBMs do they have? SLBMs? Stealth bombers? Stealth fighters?
Yes - yes and yes. And I'll promise you, they are as strong, if not stronger, than ours.
You “promise “? Based on what? Why should anyone believe your “promise “?

And you are evidentially proud that the USA uses aircraft carriers to launch attacks on people that travel by camel. So do camels launch hypersonic sea skimming antiship missiles? No existing carrier has ever been in a conflict with a hypersonic armed opponent.

So stop picking on camels already kid

Disabling our satellites is an act of war, dumbass! I think we would know!
LOL, it is possible to know when it's already too late to do anything
Guess he doesn't understand that the second they disable OUR sats, we disable theirs. Really not that hard to figure out. it's tit for tat.
With hypersonic missiles the satellites have no meaning

Depending upon the adversary, the carrier was actually obsolete decades ago
Then why are India and China trying so hard to build them?
China bought hulls from Russia that Russia did not see the need for anymore. China just wants to sail around Taiwan and look cool. All the carrier does is make the nerds on it feel cool, if they had any idea how big and easy a target that they were they would jump off wherever they were. The carrier is as outdated as the battleship.
Yeah, right. It's a fashion statement.

You're such a fucking moron.
And you are evidentially proud that the USA uses aircraft carriers to launch attacks on people that travel by camel. So do camels launch hypersonic sea skimming antiship missiles?
Did you have anything intelligent or factual to post?
No existing carrier has ever been in a conflict with a hypersonic armed opponent. In fact the last credible attack on a carrier came from Japan in WW2. That era is over and gone, except in the minds of kids like you
Why are China, India, France, Italy and England all building aircraft carriers?
Why is Russia not?
 
So true and they are kicking our ass in just about every economic endeavor. We are watching the USA Empire slowly die before our eyes, thanks to our rapacious oligarchs and the politicians they own. Not necessarily a bad thing. A warlike empire needs termination.

They also have 3 aircraft carriers under construction and two completed and in service.
Their first aircraft carrier has problems. If you don't at first succeed, try and try, again. A long journey begins with the first step.
The main problem with it is the fact that using the Ski ramp for take off means they can carry no appreciable weapons load and even require a recuded fuel load. As a result, their fighters are almost useless.

It is not their 'fighters' we have to worry about....it is China's massive arsenal of missles....capable of destroying our Aircraft Carriers.

I haven't seen a demonstration that shows that China can knockout our aircraft carriers with missiles. Carrier groups have massive defenses against missile attacks.
I am reminded of General Billy Mitchell a early advocate of air power and when he demonstrated a Airplane could sink a Battleship he became very unpopular with the big boys and eventually he was courtmartialed.

Now today we see something very similar....those who cling to the importance of aircraft carriers even though it is known they are very vulnurable to missle attacks.

The missiles are going hypersonic now. They are faster and faster. You shoot 20 of them and if only 1 gets through that at least slows down or stops the carrier from using their aircraft. In an all out war, they out mass produce us. So we better have a huge technology advantage. Perhaps those UFO's the military has been showing recently are our so called secret projects. Then they will be used to win the day before the war goes nuclear.
There is no way to shoot down a hypersonic sea skimming missile in a surprise attack as the weapons that will do the shooting are not kept loaded and unlocked, which is what they must be to shoot at a missile coming in at 1.7 miles per second
Where is the guarantee anything moving that fast can hit the broad side of a barn? That's the key point where the Chinese and Russian suck!
Since the offensive weapons systems are not loaded and unlocked the USA is defenseless against a surprise attack against a weapon traveling 2.7 miles per second
OMG, STFU! In the age of satellites, there is no such thing as a surprise attack, dumbass!
As a former military man (ret) and coming from a LONG line of military men, I can say to you that you know better than that (or you should).

For every NRO Sat Station In space, both the Russians and the ChiCom have the capability to disable them from the ground - exactly as we can with theirs. It's the 21st century, Admiral.

Carriers are obsolete whether you ignore me or not.

Really
 
Times change and methods and tactics of War Change.....The Aircraft carrier is still useful in certain situations but in a War with a major power such as China or Russia....they would be sunk very quickly....yet unfortunate as it is....some people in high places with lots of power cannot break their attachment to the Aircraft carrier....thus we are wasting money building more of them not even to mention endangering our National Security.

They are doing great things. Americans use to do great things.


By late-2020, China National Railways was operating more than 9,600 high-speed trains per day, including the world's only high-speed overnight sleeper services on selected longer-distance routes.
On some routes, more than 80% of the track is elevated, soaring above densely packed cities and valuable agricultural land on endless concrete viaducts. More than 100 tunnels -- each over 10 kilometers -- have also been bored, along with spectacular long-span bridges thrown over natural obstacles such as the Yangtze River.
The driverless "bullet trains" connecting Beijing and Zhangjiakou in northern Hebei province are capable of hitting speeds up to 350 kph, making them the world's fastest autonomous trains.
The evolution of China's incredible high-speed rail network

China is dealing with more folks than us.....with countries like Vietnam or Taiwan ....aircraft carriers might be helpful, or they are also good for showing the flag, or for logistical support and even in limited warfare with us to a certain extent.

However, we should not base our needs or our weapons platforms on the fact that China is building a aircraft carrier.

Our main concern should be what we need to fight a war with China or Russia....China being our number one threat.

Their building of a Aircraft carrier does not concern me as in we could sink it very quickly.

What we should be concerned about is all the money and resources they are pouring into missile production and technology....far more than we are.

Our obsession with racism and devoting so much time, energy and resources to try and help the minorities has severely damaged our ability to compete with China.

Now we see even our Armed Forces being hampered with all the politics now being played out there ---that damages our combat capability.....we are a nation at a crossroads....and at this point we are going the wrong way.
