Diesels are very difficult to detect in restricted waters. That said, doesn’t look good for the admiral.

Didn’t this already happen once already or something about a ChiCom sub following the Fleet?

While this may very well be a big goof or failure on our part, I’d also have to think that it might be to our advantage to let them think we can’t detect their subs.

Is this a new incident? I think it shows the folly of investing a lot of money in new surface fleets. I think the surface warship may be obsolete. But we HAVE to have something to fly the planes from right? Maybe it’s purely a missile world and we should just brandish hordes of them. Offensive and defensive.

The article doesn’t say when it happened.
It may be last years story, regurgitated.

If that's the case, why republish it now?

Hmmm. Strange, eh?

Sneaking up on us is a lot easier for the ChiComms now because they are using stolen US technology... well, except for the stuff Bill Clinton gave to them.

this is bad, but how is this a bad thing? Better they show up our defences in a mock drill as opposed to actual war.

Single ping, low power, to the Steely-Eyed Killers of the Deep

Penetrating a CVBG is trivial for a submarine, really. With no more Perry class frigates or Spruance and Kidd class destroyers, who is the ASW platform? The Arleigh Burkes? Ha!

Looks like they’re rehashing an incident from October ’06.

Gives “testing the water” a whole new meaning - China wants to see if her new technology can get past ours - bad sign

Ahhh - sneaky = that would be a smart move - then we could track them when they think they’re safe and we can know what they’re too and when
