US Intelligence Says Chinese Shipbuilding Capacity Is Now 232 Times Greater Than The US

USN Warzone/The Drive: Alarming Navy Intel Slide Warns Of China’s 200 Times Greater Shipbuilding Capacity  

The Office of Naval Intelligence is sounding the alarm about the huge gap in U.S. and Chinese shipbuilding capacity and its implications.  

A U.S. Navy briefing slide is calling new attention to the worrisome disparity between Chinese and U.S. capacity to build new naval vessels and total naval force sizes. The data compiled by the Office of Naval Intelligence says that a growing gap in fleet sizes is being helped by China's shipbuilders being more than 200 times more capable of producing surface warships and submarines. This underscores longstanding concerns about the U.S. Navy's ability to challenge Chinese fleets, as well as sustain its forces afloat, in any future high-end conflict. 

In a statement to The War Zone, the U.S. Navy has confirmed the authenticity of the slide, seen in full below, which has been circulating online.

Congress is not serious.

Rep. Barbara Lee is however very seriously mad at Governor Newsom for not considering her for US senator to replace the only slightly more geriatric Feinstain.

So congress critters do get serious, just not about naval matters.

no, misfit: military matters unite the two parts to enrich the states and those who represent them. Why bother with Newsome when you have a former pres heading for jail ?

Why? I wanted to give an a example of what congress s serious about. My post to the thread so my choice.

Barbara Lee is hilarious. The longer it goes on, the more I hope she goes Maxine Waters on everyone.

why bother? There is a good chance that hair gel will be the Democrat nominee.

Hair Gel is making an awful lot of noise on the national stage about national issues. It means that he wants the presidency and he also wants out. He wants out of California, because he does not want to ride it all the way down and California is going down. Hair Gel does not want to go down with it.

Stick with a job where things are going south for too long and it does not matter how much propaganda you have. You cannot spin it. Hair Gel has reached that point in California.


BTW prick, Belbek airport got hit. We are seeing the approaching nadir of Soviet airpower.
