    Hypersonic missiles that have countless countermeasures (even if most have low success rate on their own) against them and are expected? Geordi no meme

    Communist dark arts super-weapons consisting of sea-floor mounted super-torpedoes with mini-nukes (or conventional explosive equivalent) designed to shoot up from below, target the underside of the aircraft carrier and detonate to break its back in the water and cripple and sink it. Geordi point yes meme

    Hypersonic torpedoes beneath the surface and thus immune to most air-based intercept systems and countermeasures (somehow) Wrestling guy soy-facing meme

    Though this is an interesting simulation. I’d be interested to know what China plans to do about US submarines. Or that they have a plan, obviously I don’t think they should reveal it and give the game away to the west but I hope it’s been given serious thought and not waved away as unimportant because they don’t want to fight massive sea battles and hold areas of the sea. Obviously preventing them from lurking near the Chinese coast and giving the US ideas about nuking China and catching them with their pants down by eliminating C&C of their military before China can respond will be very attractive to a humiliated US after any loss so it must be deterred. More than that though the US uses subs to deploy and recover special operations soldiers. If we’re talking Taiwan and China stops air-lifts (plausible) they’d use one to evac their puppet regime in Taipei and I wouldn’t even put it beyond them using them for terrorist strikes (blowing up/burning down museums, terror tactics, dumping tons of guns and other weapons for stay-behind cell operations, etc). They’d definitely have 3 or more in the area when they start the Taiwan shit (as it will be the US who chooses the time unfortunately).
