Comments by "Adam Bainbridge" (@AdamMGTF) on "Why Are U.S. Navy Aircraft Carriers In China's Desert?" video.
Given the actual level of development is no doubt highly secret. I'm not sure how you can make such a sweeping statement. Unless you work for an intelligence agency and your posting about it on the internet π

"YouTube earnings"... That's a joke π . A channel with half a million subscribers and 50k+ views on new videos a week makes about Β£7 a month off YouTube. That would pay for postage on a mic π

That's what the video says......

Imagine the noise when one pops π

That would be interesting. I mean the USA would have to be huge hypocrites to protest. If the Chinese ships are in international waters then it's freedom of the seas and the USA would have to smile and wave Interestingly I don't see china doing it. The USA is obsessed with china. I don't think china cares much what the USA does. Other than hoping the us keeps spending themselves into oblivion.

I don't think china are daft enough to attack the USA. What do they have to gain? Nothing. What do they have to loose; everything. The USA are the aggressors in theatre. I agree the USA should just leave other countries alone. But they can't. They have to justify their defense spending.

China don't need to hit an American carrier. Just continue to do what they have been doing for 20 years and in the meantime watch the USA spiral into uncontrolled debt to fund a military that does..... Nothing. Well. Except shoot down some balloons for no reason at huge expense π

And yet china must be laughing themselves to sleep every night, knowing the USA is spending itself into uncontrolled debt to fun a military that hasn't done anything positive since the 1950s π

They can be. Doesn't mean they will in a conflict. There is no president for this in modern warfare.

I love the bullseye in the middle of the Iranian target carrierπ

βΒ @Arag0nΒ you need to read more history! Battleships were used extensively by all sides during ww1! Ok maybe not much by the USA but they weren't in the war for long.

βΒ @yours_sincerely48Β similar to what happens when nuclear subs have been lost. How bad the damage is will depend on where it happens.

Β @Arag0nΒ no. No they didn't. Ok the Kaiser&Komigs Reich Marine didn't come out much after the raids against Italy when Italy first entered the war. But the Italians and marine national had their dreadnaughts deployed on constant convoy escort and showing of force across the Mediterranean. All the allied navies deployed battleships to the dardenells as well as in defence of the Suez canal. Then you have the CONSTANT sorties into the North sea by the grand fleet and the high seas fleet. Naturally when I say constant, that generally doesn't include the winter. But if you've ever been on a ship in the north sea in winter you know why! Yes there was only 2 major classes of large fleets of battleships. But that's down to strategy. Oh and then there is the Baltic. Which was a rule onto itself. I strongly recommend John Keegan, Andrew Lambert and Eric Grove as good authors to read up on ww1. You'll soon discover the idea that all the battleships sat in port doing nothing for 4+ years is total nonsense.

The problem there would be that so much of it is secret. Also the field is constantly changing. It's all programming at the end of the day and no military is going to willingly share proprietary code

Lol because china is Dr Evil now?π Your comment made my day

You have to get close enough to launch a Torpedo. That's why hypersonic warheads are a focus of research

No, they are ships.

That statement proves you need to learn more history! The record on abuses of POWs alone is horrific

Irony is that to most none Americans, china look very clever. They aren't desperate to stand up to the USA. They only want the USA to leave them alone just enough to accomplish their local goals. They have the great benefit that for some reason the US population and government/military are obsessed with having an enemy. (I suppose the defence spending has to be justified somehow). As a result the USA is in horrific debt and spending incredible amounts on a military that does nothing. All while the economy suffers as does the standard of living for working class Americans. In otherwords America is doing what it forced the USSR to do at the end of the cold war. Eventually it'll be unsustainable. China has zero interest in a war with the USA. It would be the worse thing that could happen in their minds. Only in the minds of Americans is it a possibility and as a result the circular reasoning is complete.

Watch the video π. They are built in weapons testing sites π

Β @spankythemonkey9828Β your welcome :)

Irony: many people would say the same about the USA (especially during COVID/under trump π)

Yes. Poking fun at a speech impediment is the hight of sophistication.
