This is correct. Under Bretton Woods/globalization, we had hundreds of destroyers patrolling the world's oceans to keep maritime commerce safe. Now that we've backed away from that, we have a carrier-heavy fleet. These are country killers and everyone knows it. Between the carriers and our strategic bomber fleet, there isn't a square inch of this planet that we can't reach out and touch within 72 hours. Nobody wants that smoke.

The real ace in the hole is our fleet of Trident subs.

Yes and this board is ok with it because they’re a bunch of warmongers. Wanting to force US imperialism in Asia. Idk why we think it’s a good idea to force a large nuclear power into a corner

Nukes won't be on the table unless there's an existential threat to the CONUS. We're not throwing nukes over anything in the South China Sea and China lacks the maritime force projection to even entertain the idea of threatening our mainland.
