#5  They are utter fools for investing in WWII technology like aircraft carriers.

You understand the PLA is Chinese, right?
Why should we not encourage their ambitions?

Think of the size of a megawatt laser one could hang off a nuclear carrier.

#1  They are utter fools for investing in WWII technology like aircraft carriers. They are just big targets for submarines.

And wait for the next big shooting war for everyone to discover that the naval mine has made huge strides and is really the thing that will decide conflicts. They're not those spiky things any more. They are torpedoes in a box anchored to the sea floor that listen for specific audio signatures and launch themselves when a targeted ship sails by.
