I wouldn’t worry about China catching up in weapons capability. The next Clinton has already taken money from Chinese contributors. She will transfer technology to the Chinese military, just as the previous Clinton did.

We keep on buying crap from walmart. /s

It’s about all your base...and are belong to. (string of pearls)

Mean while at home....“For the second time this week, a federal court found today that a Navy anti-submarine training program threatened to subject whales and other sea creatures to harmful blasts of sonar and ordered protective measures in several sensitive zones, including one near Monterey Bay.”

the chinese probably test and then... eat.

[BootsOfEscaping]

Oh nothing to worry about...I’m sure there is a perfectly valid reason for building so many subs....um undersea exploration perhaps? Uh huh....

nothing to see here...continue consuming!

You know, it’s funny, but Wal-Mart is a store I never go into. But every store has overseas products in it. You can’t totally avoid it.

Clinton would probably try to lift the forced “made in china” labels at the retail end.

It is fn hard to avoid Chinese products.

They should have started worrying 4 years ago.. The Aussies too. The Aussies even more than us, should be expanding their Sub fleet and their ASW Tech.

[fishhound]

Isn’t it the Aussies licensing high speed catamarrans that they convert to military platforms.?

Storm clouds a gathering.

Meanwhile we permit, no, in fact subsidize the hollowing out of our manufacturing base along with the undermining of our currency and financial base. Not looking good from this end but then I’m probably Myopic, not having the far sightedness of many of our Globalist leaders.

“Meanwhile we permit, no, in fact subsidize the hollowing out of our manufacturing base along with the undermining of our currency and financial base.”

Deliberate and sick race to the bottom. Ask any manufacturer.

[pissant]

Worthless POS in robes. Feed them to the whales.

[bruinbirdman]

"She will transfer technology "

Let's see. What did The Toon give his ChiCom comrades? NRC, Sandia, Los Alamos archives. Final stage synchronous orbit. Nuke miniaturization. MIRV capability. Neutron bomb.

What could Mrs. Toon give them? Aha! SLBMs. ABM, Patriot avoidance. Stealth detection. . . .

Whales don’t eat POSs like that, unfortunately. ; {

[Rudder]

How long is it that the Chinese have been building these submarines?

[wastedyears]

Well duh
