I know the Chinese have been building a navy for at least 5 or 6 years (maybe longer ... ) and to hear we have one new one with maybe two on the way is .... um .... comforting.
Well, three of these on the way.
In the same time frame we have built a dozen more of the Burke class destroyers, which are a match for anything the ChiComms are producing.
They have built 10 new destroyers in that time frame and 20 really modern frigates.
