• And Kim Jong Un scored 18 hole-in-one's last Saturday

    Or was it next Saturday?

    'China’s hypersonic weapons could destroy the US Navy’s newest aircraft carrier in a recent war game, Chinese scientists have claimed.

    Computer simulations run by a research team on a war game software platform used by China’s military showed Chinese forces sinking the USS Gerald R Ford carrier fleet with a volley of 24 hypersonic anti-ship missiles, reported the South China Morning
    Post.'


    Oh, really?

    'No, Chinese hypersonic missiles have not made US aircraft carriers obsolete This situation has been just about to happen for 50 years now' https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/05/25/chinese-df27-hypersonic-missile-us-aircraft-carriers/

    I would like to have read the rest of that article, but the teaser lead to a required subscription.

    The wargame of words continue. I think (my, somewhat learned, opinion), N. Korea is pissed that the U.S. refuses to reveal its hand and show our antimissile capabilities. They keep shooting things into the Pacific, as close to Japan as they can, but
    apparently, we know how to tell a real threat from a phony.
