China

Here's the kind of input that really makes me uneasy.  I really suspect a lot of what the writer claims is valid, or at least partially valid.  That means we could be at a huge disadvantage trying to face off China anywhere in the oceans nearby.  Military history has always been about the competition between offensive and defensive weapons.  If your armor is thick and stronger than the other side's and his weapons can seldom hurt you, great.  If your long bow or crossbow is powerful and accurate enough to knock his charging knights off their horses, great. And if China's defensive missile systems are super fast, accurate, and deadly and our ships and planes don't have systems to stop them.... that's not good.  They don't have to have the power to come invade the USA, all the need is the power to keep us out of most of Asia. --Del
Think we have military primacy over China? Think again.
