Were they in Japanese waters? or just really close?
Time for Japan to rearm.
Who is the FReeper that keeps us up to date on Chinese naval power?
The US Navy has had a tremendous run at being dominant on the world’s oceans - and we as a country have benefited from that militarily and through implied pressures. It’s naive to think that other countries are not envious and working diligently to build their own naval powers to suit their own aims. If we want to stay ahead, it’ll be through foreward thought, determination and innovation. Be smarter, work harder, and play the ‘game’ better. I’m still optimistic that we have the grit, but make no mistake, the game has been elevated.
The big bear is just flexing his muscles a little bit....we’ll see a whole lot more....pushing more limits in the future. There can be no doubt that eventually we will go to war with China, perhaps allied with the EU, Japan and Australia. How Russia plays their cards I’m not so sure.
