with what? anyways all the best ....
You simply need education....
Here is a simple science or math lesson regarding Chinese DF-21D's mach 10 and it consequences.
Speed of sound is 1 mach which is approximately 5 miles a second. This missile has a sub-orbital trajectory, say 50 miles above earth. It only takes 10 seconds to hit the ship once the target is locked on. For a moving carrier traveling at 30 knots which is about 34 miles an hour. In 10 seconds, the carrier can only travel less than 50 feet. What is the length of this super carrier, you figure. In the overall scheme of 10 mach, 30 knot is considered a stationary target. There is no existing arsenal in the US Navy which can act as some form of deterrence, let alone defense.
Once the missile has its cross-hair on the carrier, it is dead meat in 10 seconds, sorry more correctly, dead metal plus 5000 human meat. Someone suggests many many hand held defense system. What a laugh. It only adds more meat to the final count.
Yes, you can run but you cannot hide.
I don’t really understand how an average American psyche works or what the mentality is.
You can park your so called super carrier right in front of someone else’s front yard and expect people not to react. Who is threatening who in this case.
When China develops an anti-ship missile as a form of deterrence, then it is a threat.
What will America think, if one day China has a super super carrier and have the muscle to park the ship just off the coast and stay within the 20 mile limit or just stop short of sailing up the Potomac River.
Or just park this carrier off the coast of San Francisco or LA and conducting naval exercises. Can China do that?
The US has been dictating to the rest of the world (China included) and China is just reacting to your constant threat, that is all.
The US has bases and soldiers stationed all over the world and poked their noses in every corner which is not to their liking, and then installing puppet regimes all over place.
China is just doing what she wants to do as her prerogative right as a sovereign nation. Now the US termed China “assertive”, whatever that means. Is being assertive a threat?
The DF-21D anti-ship missile is a defensive weapon, i.e. stay off my yard please or else. Nothing wrong with that, assertive yes, threat definitely NOT. It is only a threat only when you sail your carrier more than half way round the world for no reason at all to a place where there is no threat to the US.
Not too long ago, US is conducting a naval exercise somewhere in South Chin Sea and suddenly, they found a Chinese submarine, stealth or no stealth, surfaced right in the midst of the exercise. The super carrier is facing the submarine broadsided and within torpedo range of the sub. A good trade off, a super carrier for a tiny sub. lol
In an exercise like this you are supposed to detect enemy subs ? That is what this exercise is intended for. What a joke.
