Blue pixelated uniforms on Red China Navy...

It is because our guys wear them.

Heck they steal the ship, weapons, tech designs and general force strategies from us, why not the clothing as well.

More of the “white might” inferiority complex. They hate us but strive in every way to be like us.

Wish there was some better overheads of these Chinese ships though. Easier to recognize them when they are all at the bottom of the Pacific.

Maybe when the uniform gets wet, it looks like flotsam?

Buuump!

Thanks for the posting and all of the photos, Jeff!

No, that’s the enclosed compartment for the ship’s launch. One on each side.

A typo. Multi-role.

Exactly, Jim.

Obama believes that the Unityed States, as established and its constitution, is the bad guy. He means to cut us down numerous notches and is going about it with a will.

That is what was meant by his "fundamental change."

In every aspect of our society they are relentlessly marhcing toward their goal of a humbled, down trodden America...and they are accomplishing what the mightiest military forces in the world could not do.

Militarily, economically, health care, education, the structure and make up of the family...heck, the very definition of "family," our manufacturing, energy, our borders, morally...you name a critical area, and you will see that the progressives/liberals have attacked it head-on now in an effort to bring to a conclusion their decades long efforts at subverting all of those things.

If ever there was a time for the American people to awaken from a slumber, to stand upo and be counted, and to put down these efforts...it is now.

In the meant time, the second in class of this vessel, their DDG-173 Chungshan, just took to sea on its sea trials today. Number three is outfitting, number four is about to be launched, and number five's componenst are all ready to go into the building hall as soon as number 4 is launched. They are building at a breathtaking rate.

And their economy continues to slow. They are experiencing the “Soviet problem” in which they divert badly needed (and really, scarce) capital into military stuff. The ONLY way this can be sustained is through expansion, but India And Russia not exactly expansion material.

[Jeff Head]

They have their eyes on the South China Sea and the resources that are there in abundance.

Every time that’s tried-—Hitler, Japan, it fails. You cannot grab what you don’t have, and expect it to pay for a war machine. Sorry, I don’t see China as this big a military threat. Now, if we were on LAND over there, it would be a different story. Sooner or later, if they get aggressive, they will run into Putin. That should be fun.
