  • Aircraft carriers for everyone!



    Russia is going to build 6 using the billions they get from oil. China is watching Russia to see what they do, Japan is watching China, and India is getting two.

    It might get bit crowded out there.

    Did the French carrier sink yet? That might help a bit.

    All of the French are carriers.

        I was just saying that what the world needs is a good old-fashion arms race.


        Aircraft carriers are good for projecting power. With 6 carriers, where do you think Russia wants to project its power: Eastern Med? The Baltic? The Norweigen Sea? The Far East?

                "Admiral Vladimir Masorin added that three of these carriers and their naval escorts would be assigned to Russia's Pacific fleet while the remainder would serve with the northern fleet in European waters."

                I believe this.

                  As long as they appear to be opposing the U.S. in some way, they'll have a mountain of support from European lefties.

                    The Russkies started flying long range bomber patrols again this week for the first time since the USSR broke up. Some nice pics of a Typhoon 'escorting' a Bear. WWIII FTW!

                      And all the lefties supported those patrols. Everywhere in Europe, demonstrations were on and people were screaming "Go Putin, go!"

                        Well, do you think the US is the only one who should be able to project their power to the other side of the globe?

                            Meanwhile, the US still hasn't flown a long range bomber patrol since the breakup of the USSR.

                              Here's my fear:

                              Russia builds a lot of carriers, which freaks China out.
                              So China builds a lot of carriers, which freaks India out.
                              So India builds a lot of carriers, which freaks Pakistan out.
                              So Pakistan builds a lot of carriers, which freaks Iran out.
                              So Iran builds a lot of carriers, which freaks Sunni Arab states out.
                              So the Sunnis start building a lot of carriers, which freaks Israel out

                              And on & on & on, until someone sneezes, the KABOOM!
