    The growing pains, especially as technology progresses, will be steep for them. You don't learn flight operations in a few cruises or deployments. It can take decades to get the system down pat.

    They barely even understand the steam catapult operations at this point.

    I am guessing their carrier program will consist of a few VTOL carriers and a bunch of subs.

    They are going to need escorts too.

    BTW-the US figured out long ago that China will steal our designs-and that we can't count on keeping our systems secret.

    So-we now rely on a 2-3 decade buffer where China will have to learn to work with materials, etc to make something "modern".

    What backpedaling-we are the worlds top producer of energy and energy independent.

    Trump holds the high ground and now he's hoping to strain Iranian-Chinese relations.

    Its good stuff. ;)

    So I bet now you are going to complain about the pressure Trump is putting on China, unlike the past democrat that sent them missile technology.

    Maybe they could pull Baghdad Bob out of the box for the inevitable ass kicking that will follow the downfall of their pride.

    In 2024 obviously after Trump's 2nd term it'll be Candace Owens ha ha ha.

    Santa isn't going to come for either Sanders or Warren, Biden as every one already knows has be preordained like Hilldawg in 2016.

    Bernie's too far out on the Socialism and Lizzie lacks credibility, where as I know many women have found Biden "Touching"

    That's better than Bernie at least, Bernie supporters I've spoken to on Twitter responded with just print more when questioned where do you get the money and that's scary because they really believe it.

    China gets 91% of its oil through Hormuz. Why are we defending their supply of dirty, non renewable energy.

    Maybe in 1987. The future is now.

    Green-water navy is terminology created to describe a naval force that is designed to operate in its nation's littoral zones and has the competency to operate in the open oceans of its surrounding region.[1] It is a relatively new term, and has been created to better distinguish, and add nuance, between two long-standing descriptors: blue-water navy and brown-water navy.

    Iran is in serious trouble financially. Their oil exports are closing towards zero due to the pressure Trump is putting on Allies. Bet you think sending them pallets of cash really helped.
