U.S. Sends Second Carrier to Asia Amid Tensions with China

[Superboy]

Last time it was a J-8 and a P-3. This time it was a J-11 and a P-8. P-8 is Boeing 737, very vulnerable, see MH17.

You just compared 737 and P 8

I agree. Considering that there are about 90 or so F-18s per 1 Carrier, these Beasts can command over 170 F-18s with relative impunity. These would pulverize any air force command that would dare threaten the Carriers. This is not taking into consideration the Cruisers , Destroyers and Nuclear Submarines that are attached to these CBGs.

The Shear firepower of just 1 CBG can glass any nation from the face of the earth.

As a theoretical maximum, the US carriers can carriers can accommodate 90 aircraft of all types- fighters, AEWs and helicopters. This would include around 70 fighter aircraft. Bear in mind putting 90 aircraft on a carrier does not necessarily make it more powerful as it would reduce the number of sorties that the carrier can launch due to lesser hangar and deck space.

The carriers normally carry 70 aircraft and around 48-55 fighters.

Someone posted "bullying tactics" here, such is the irony.

If China is disturbed on US spying, why not do the same thing but use subs instead of airplane?

Y-8 maritime patrol planes would have harassed American Virginia class nuclear powered attack submarines.

What is the oversea naval bases for Chinese subs and surface combatants ?

USA and Japan so strong at ASW. What they doing now is tracking Chinese subs at departure.

Cam Ranh Vietnam used to be base for Russian subs. Mention the depth of sea levels in Cam Ranh and Hainan.
the deep sea level closer to Cam Ranh coast, nearly only within territorial water of Vietnam.

Subs don't need to float to enter the base because there's underwater entrances

I think US carrier deployment in Asia is a good exercice for Chinese Navy, no challenge mean no answer to it. Only people live near the danger will seek to find the answer to it and we want US navy to be the experimental specimen of China military development.

Since the 7th Fleet was in Asia pretty much most of the time, you didn't do anything.

We don't have to do anything to the 7th fleet. Sooner or later, the US will collapse under too many Latinos and the 7th fleet will rust in a junkyard

Dude were still fishing there plus what humilation you made Air defense zone and American Planes fly in and out of it now that is humilation when my grand parents kick your @$$es in Korea with small number of men now that was Humiliation so what you talking about? the only people being humiliated here is you guys just stay in your place and dont bother the world with your world domination crap you guys are becoming a pest for eveyone.

1. When did US planes fly through Chinese ADIZ?

2. The US lost tens of thousands killed + tens of thousands more amputated. No exactly something to show for.

Wow other them here check the old post when china made that stupid move of defense zone am not your keeper look and find it yourself

Since you quoted Wiki check it again.

Since when does a spy plane needs to be armed to be considered hostile og provocative?

A spy plane in international waters is never considered hostile and provocative, except to China, which thinks the entire Pacific Ocean belongs to it.

We need to accelerate stock piling nuke and increase military spending to 30%. The US is about to bring war to us. Such a bully tactic is unacceptable!


We send to intercept your spy plane and you start bitching already?

It is not the intercept which bothers us, it is the insane buzzing, barrel rolling in close proximity, and games of chicken. This is a very simple issue, and only the brain-damaged pilots in that squadron and a few others don't seem able to comprehend it.

Either get used to it, or stop harassing China in its doorstep. That's a message simple and clear.

For that, you need to keep the dimwit generals in Pentagon in check.

Most of the insane buzzing is coming from the US side, by the way. Do simple internet check.

I think so. US strategy is not going to give us time to fully modernize. It's time to temporarily spend $600b/year on military.

ahahahahah, chill man , the U.S isnt going to war with China or Russia for that matter. Spying/reconnaisance is what all countries do to their rivals/adversaries when they can, even now, Russia and U.S still do this to each other. Though sometimes one side might make a fuss out of it. However its been so for decades and will keep being so for the forseeable future. So, No you dont need to spend 600 billions for defence.lol Focus on your economy/improving living standard and all else will fall in place.. Im sure your leaders know this, reason they are less focus on spending too much on military(take a cue from former U.S.S.R which over spent on its military neglecting other sectors and where it got them to) but rather focus on economy which i think is a wise step. Dont forget the U.S is already a developed country and is at its peak. So it can afford to overspend on its military(though i think it overspents more than what is needed).
Two nuclear powers will never go to war with each other except they are ready for MAD. The U.S makes such noise because they are still the worlds most powerful country by far and so can basically dictate terms/rules. You only have to blame yourselfs if you are not as good/on par to U.S global media out reach/propaganda. Afterall, almost every country tend to listen/believe U.S medias perspectives than state controlled ones from China(who are mainly China focus/non existent abroad.lol).

So you people shouldnt be over emotional. There isn't going to be a war because of some surveillance/spying mishap.lol at best there will be protests from each sides and some military moves by the U.S to show allies they are proactive, apart from that nothing more this news will all but be forgotten in few days from now.lol So chill bro.

Oh just another cover up in fear of wait and see. One poster says come on and try and we will something about another carrier sent into Asia and I say we already have one and you didn't do crap.

When did U.S. planes fly through Chinese ADIZ? Just now buddy did you not see the news of your pilot going gaga over our recon plane in your ADIZ?

 

[senheiser]

so one carrier less in the middle east and europe and next week it has to go to the other side in the atlantic again if something happens there, back and ford. This is not a sign of strength but weakness as america feels unstable that it feels the need to locate one of their aircraft carriers just because of a barrel role lol.
