its been renamed a few times

dude you have zero understanding of the military strengths of either country.

but I don't know think anyone ever actually said it wasn't being pursued

how do you know that for a fact? you got a buddy within the chinise nuclear program as well as the british one?

god you are denbse

as you seem to understand the internal workings of trident too

do not trust out missile defense system. against 1 ICBM, it may work as advertised. but verse a whole sale all out launch from russia or china? That is a stupid number of nukes, all of which pack several warhead or war head dummies. the chance of it missing a few in lunch a large assault it great, and missing a few means game over

China doesn't have any ballastic subs. Its know what ships china has, kind of hard to hide them

@oprahsminge I hope its still going.

also they are close enough to use planes

doesnt need to be icbm only

this bad mother fucker could take 30+ ballistic missile by itself

30 missiles? or 30 warheads?

im sure it can

how many you got?

deployed currently on the west coast?

most built ship in the navy

doesnt mattr how many you have, if china launch its how many are activly deployed

we have 53 total, 8 more being built

total =/= active

how many, on float, at any given time

The Navy has 53 commissioned destroyers and another 8 in various stages of construction and testing, with one additional ship on order.

split between all your waters and deployments

so if they are all at hawaii at the right time

then you should be good

but that requires you cede control of all other waters and the eastern seaboard

... dude again are you purposely not listening

i am, i think youve missed the difference between what you got, whats active3 and where its deployed

aint we building a few more as well? Aircraft Carriers I mean

based on your math 53 x 30 missiles is 159

Japan has 2 massive naval bases, along with army, airforce, and marines. Guam too. Alaska too. Then California.

so china an out shoot that

can*

based on lowest estimate

do you have a respected defense analyst who agrees with you on this?

based on median estimates china wipes out half of america

yeah we only can defend ourselves with 1 type of ship. oh did you see how that cow jhumped over the moon?

just going on your numbers
