>>20486083But if this story is true and the carpet jockeys out in a god forsaken desert can hit a US supercarrier then what does that imply? That the entire world's surface fleet of warships are obsolete.
To date for instance the USS Gerald Ford has cost $37 billion USD. It's all shit. All these big $$$ tubs were ever good for is bombing barefoot rice farmers living in grass huts. They are essentially floating coffins for 6000 sailors.
The US ability to project power is now manifestly at an end. When Eisenhower was president he said that the US could never fight a European war again; the troop ships would get sunk somewhere in the middle of hte icy cold Atlantic ocean by enemy nuclear subs.
We are watching in real time the end of the American Empire and a return to American political isolation. It will still trade and shit but its ability to project power around the globe is over short of total nuclear megadeath for the entire planet.
