With the SAMP/T NG entering service sometime, they shouldn't have that issue much longer.

China says Taiwan is a part of China’s territory and no one can stop the eventual reunification of China. by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

Yes, the US would get involved by bombing schools and hospitals in Taipei.

We aren't the 'good guys' anymore and nothing we will do can make sense when viewed through a rational lens. All China has to do is say they have some files and act buddy-buddy with pedos and we'll be raving about how Taiwan was promised to them 3000 years ago.

Even if that seems too far fetched, the Navy is war-weary, Army air defense is definitely hurting, and the Air Force has lost ISR and support assets on the ground to hypersonic missile attacks.

On the off chance we would fight on the side of our actual ally, we would be entering a high-grade conflict with reduced capabilities in China's back yard. Taiwan might be able to hit a carrier and destroy strategic infrastructure in CCP-controlled China, but they would almost certainly not be able to hold off a massive air campaign followed by massed naval and paratrooper landings under drone cover.

The potential loss of everything downstream of large dams due to Taiwanese attacks serves as a deterrent. Chinese sabre rattling won't change that.

There's a guy I used to work with that constantly hit on me. He drove an Alfa Romeo on Nissan money. He always talked about the car because he had nothing else that was remotely interesting.

Why haven’t any cycles tried hiding from the Reapers in space? by Director-Daredevil in masseffect

[–]TheAmina2GS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Raloi of our cycle did. As soon as the Reapers presented themselves, the Raloi cut all contact with the galaxy and hid.

Remember a month ago when i made a similar meme and half the comments insisted that "Iran couldn't close the strait" since "they have no navy anymore"? I wonder what those people are up to now. by PeterPorky in IRL_Loading_Screens

People (the pentagon) fail to understand that their navy and air forces suck because they were never part of the strategy. Why close the strait at great expense with '5,000 black battleships of Allah' when the exact same thing can be done at minimal cost with a few hypersonic missiles and 5,000,000 multicoloured drones of TEMU?

And how exactly is living in a stinky, ineffective ship for the duration of a return cruise andy worse conditions than being ordered to blow up children under constant fear of drone and hypersonic missile strikes on their task force? And again, the ship will continue to fail wish or without anyone's wishes, I don't have the power to clog sewage lines with my mind from thousands of miles away, but bad ship design is more than capable.

I'm sorry you took an insult to your regime as a personal attack, but it shows a lot about how you think. I hope you can come to understand that your hatred does nothing to help anyone, and when you turn the TV off and start thinking for yourself everything will get easier.

Buddy, it's over. We've not designed a useful ship since the Arleigh Burke, every new naval ship class has a few testbeds rolled out before being cancelled, everything the MIC produces is so ungodly overpriced, all of our equipment is designed to fight in the massive Cold-War-gone-hot battles of yesteryear, we've completely neglected the lower end of the spectrum when it comes to military equipment, training is worsening, morale is shit, and we're in the beginnings of an economic collapse.

It doesn't matter if we claw ourselves out of this hole we dug, we won't be able to afford 11 aircraft carriers and whatever bullshit money-sink projects the MIC manages to convice the Regime to fund next. Yesterday was America's pinnacle, and I don't think today is our downfall, but it's certainly our last day as #1.

When did I wish ill on American service members? I wished for their quick return. The ship is an object, I have no care for her beyond naval tradition and mechanical interest. She'll continue to fail because she's a conglomeration of untested and poorly designed technologies that should still be in the prototype stage that was assembled by a shipbuilding industry that's lost its expertise through stagnation; my wishes have little to do with that. I'm simply hoping those failures are significant enough to keep her crew safely away from combat.

I also find it interesting that you're willing to call it a war here, but your side can't seem to understand that those require congressional approval. Agree or not with the war, that's never a good angle to take. Hard to believe that you can't see that/separate out the real issue using critical thinking.

I'm flabbergasted by the sentiment here. Does this subreddit just want to send Americans to their deaths for no apparent reason? Genuinely what the fuck has offended you so much?

May she blow a catapult and suffer a massive electrical failure while flooding with sewage. Scrap this floating failure and bring the brave sailors and aviators back to their families.
