Yup, Any one can send a ship. But who has the guts to fire the first shot and its way too late to give an entry.For all its impressive firepower, I doubt if it would ever fire a single shot in SCS. US is there for an "Innocent Pass", but China is there to Stay.
By SCS nations you mean Philippines and Vietnam? Heh you couldn't even get ASEAN to issue a joint statement against China. Keep tellingYah, that's right. That's why the SCS nations have arrayed themselves against the United States in this.....because they know we Americans instigated it all. You just keep telling yourself what you want to hear....
(Probably best if you avoid reading the, oh, about two dozen threads on various SCS and other regional nations, who are building up their military presence in the face of Chinese actions in the area. )
Maybe tell your lackeys not to build islands first, since China certainly wasn't the first to start. Don't start shit you can't finish, then cry foul.The B-52 flights were only in the ECS after china claimed an ADIZ over disputed islands, not in the SCS.
And we never started doing FONOPs until they started building islands deep in the SCS. You got your timeline wrong son.

If US wanted they should have come early and prevented china from construction on island. It now looks like they have come for window shopping and nothing else.
Now I await the oh so original, classic 'misdirection' response of , "But, but, what about you AMERICANS!"
Nah, we aren't fighting much of a war in the middle-east and if, God forbid, war breaks out in the SCS between China, the US and other regional Asian countries, it would be almost entirely a job for our navy, which isn't really engaged anywhere at the moment. I mean, it's not like we would invade the Chinese mainland. We would likely declare a sea and air exulsion zone in the disputed area and attack any Chinese forces violating it. We have more than enough naval force and capable nuclear attack submarines.US can fight only one war either they have to fight the middle east war or the SCS, either way the americans are screwed and they dont know to which way to go
For those Chinese who want to see a 20% hike in defense budget this year, this US CBG couldn't come in better time. Now China has every reason to "militarize" their assets in SCS. Talking about "self-fulfilled prophecy"! Is someone in US Navy 7th Fleet working for Chinese hawks?

And of course...
- Virginia class (11 in commission, 5 under construction, 2 on order) – fast attack submarines
- Seawolf class (3 in commission) – attack submarines
- Los Angeles class (43 in commission, 2 in reserve) – attack submarines

...so, no worries.
Maybe when the US balls get bigger, right now China balls is bigger then US now. If US dare just shoot at least a bullet, then I will thumb up the US. Lol, please do it. More ship wasting American taxes money.
