Well, of course. Training take money, and the armed services don't have enough because it has to be given to failing alt energy projects, and to support huge bureacracies at the EPA, Dept of Labor, etc.

US Navy had few combat experiences sine WWII. Persian Gulf service in 80th was, perhaps, the most important, because it was not just support for ground force. Chinese, on the other hand, have no Naval history and tradition at ll. Their latest combat engagements took place at the end of 19th century, most of them ending in defeat.

Firstly: Japanes decade long privations in the 30's wasn't due to a LIC in china, (which they were kicking ass in) it was due to enormous embargoes being put on them by the US, then half the worlds economy. Secondly, Trench, you'd be surprised, 4 elderly Chinese crapboats sank 3 modernish Vietnamese frigates in the 70's. Thats gotta count for something in an era when less than 15 enemy combatants have been sunk world wide in the last 50 years. And most of those were arab boats put at the bottom of the med by israelis.

Nate Dog, you mean Sino - Vietnamese war ? I didn't know there were any naval engagements. I am going to research it a bit. Always appreciate that kind of information, thanks.
