The author...has a problem with numbers

That's an understatement.

"All of the U.S. Navy's nuclear-powered aircraft carriers have a maximum speed of 32 knots. In other words, they can move 30.866 meters each minute and 216.06 meters within seven minutes."

LOL! 60 miles per hour is 1 mile per minute. Half that speed, 30 miles per hour, is 1 mile every two minutes.

So while the Chinese think that a U.S. aircraft carrier would move only 31 meters in a minute...Americans know that it can move about a kilometer in that amount of time.
