Poor Trumpster,

"The United States Navy (USN) has the largest navy in the world, both in terms of displacement tonnage and overall number of capital ships. While the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) has more ships, the USN's fleet is significantly larger in terms of total displacement, reflecting its emphasis on larger, more powerful vessels like aircraft carriers."

Yep, you were counting row boats, One row boat = One aircraft carrier, in your way of thinking.

Which part of "While the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) has more ships, " went over your head?

Trumpster,

I never said the US had more ships than China, but numerical numbers are of little consequence when determining the relative navel strengths of both nations. This claim by some that US has to "catch up" to China militarily, is hog-wash. Like during the Cold War it suited the American military industrial complex to claim the Soviet Union was neck and neck with the US militarily, when in fact it was way behind.

Can you explain why America needs 68 nuclear powered and armed submarines. The reason is when America goes down they intend to take the rest of the world with them, AND that includes AUSTRALIA!

"You are either permanently drunk, drugged, or insane. Nothing else could account for your hate-filled ranting and raving. There have been a few fruit loops here over the years, but you take the cake."

You're the one who screams endlessly about antisemitism, but makes no connection to the fact Israel are slaughtering women and kids, engaged in genocide and ethnic cleansing, and whines about Muslims, but doesn't see the cause of their anger or the cause of wars that displaced them, or our governments willingness to pander to them allowing them entry.

Australia can't maintain more than one submarine, nor maintain or crew its two biggest ships. Eight years of continuous ship building have produced 1 pretty useless for defence patrol boat.

Plenty of admirals though.

An ex-ASIO head has been commissioned to investigate the RAN; but there will be no written report in case someone accidentally reads it.
