7·3 months agoThis was posted elsewhere but it’s relevant to mention the US already stated it would sell inferior versions of jets. Im sure these countries realised the current US mentality of “why stop there” and will probably cost cut further - lesser quality munitions and firearms, land vehicles, specialty fuels, etc.
Also in the face of tariffs and regular insults, being less inclined to purchase from someone increasingly hostile to them. This isn’t “out of the blue”, it’s the response step.
Mourn the loss of historical vehicles, but blame the people who threw them to be destroyed.
1·2 years agoOh my fucking God yes. Every individual pro (nfl?) football team has a sub Every individual pro fifa (whatever) soccer team has a sub Every individual ice hockey team has a sub Polo. Formula 1. COLLEGE football teams! College football divisions! And whos going to the super bowl. Basketball. A sub for who’s going to make it to the final 5. Volleyball. Whatever big volleyball bullshit is. And then relevant WOMENS versions for all of these (no extra hate, just extra numbers) Baseball! Baseball teams history!
Then there’s leagues! Big10. The other big conference! Every coalition for Soccer. Conferences for Basketball. Divisions for hockey. Like holy shit! There’s more categories for sports than nsfw!
EDIT: I need to add that I did the math in another comment: there are (For a US citizen) 32 NFL teams and 113 College football teams. 32 Fifa Soccer teams. 29 US Mens soccer clubs (plus 3 Canadian). 12 More Women’s Soccer teams -only one league. 10 Formula 1drivers/teams. 8 womens volleyball teams. 30 mens baseball teams (29US 1 Canada). 32 teams in the NHL. and lastly, 30 NBA teams. In total this is 331 “Teams” and is the bare minimum before consulting each city will post about a game, individual players with followings, and broad subs like “MLB” is different from “Orioles” and results in more subs needed to block
Japan sights *the only two carriers China owns, traveling together.
Sure Liaoning (a refitted soviet design) and Shandong (a newer cv based on the soviet design plan) together is a sight to see and power projection, but even more so it means they’re not elsewhere. Moving both to the same place near Japan means India and Taiwan aren’t within quick response range. I understand its just a display but this is what a party waiting to strike watches for. Not setting them in the same fleet ALSO prevents you from getting pearl-harbor’d and losing both your CVs in a single strike, should that happen.
US Forces are already in the area and just left for patrol
Additionally, the George Washington (an aging Nimitz) just left Japan to begin patrols (every summer for 6 months has been the tradition for the fleet). The 7th Fleet website says the Strike Group is comprised of the 1 CV, 2 cruisers (ticonderoga class) and 9 destroyers (arleigh-burke class) totalling 12 ships. A different article cites the Liaoning traveling with 3 ships, and Shandong with 5, totalling 10. Shandong travels with 1 cruiser and I can’t find what Liaoning’s complement is. I’d assume the rest are destroyers or auxiliary barracks/fuel ships. It should be noted this isnt the first time these carriers have done this, they were in the Phillipines doing drills last year together in November, which caused concern for a Taiwan invasion.
If these 2 are going to drill together it means China may be almost ready to launch Fujian (a flat top supercarrier of China’s own design) to power project in 2 places again, and let the 2 older model designs travel together to cover any weaknesses they may have.
